    one of the key components to that effect, which is also evident in the gun sounds from Indy- particularly Indy’s revolver, is to add a good amount of bass eq to cause the bias on a 2 track analog recorder to go into a non-linear saturation.

    the easiest, (though now not so easy) way to accomplish the sound is to master to an analog recorder.

      I remember you telling me about this Charles! As you know I spent quite a long time going after this sound as well.. That meaty low end is the best part.

    Ah, the magic now is broken :)
    Sometimes I think, that we, as sound designers, should keep such things in secret.

    Because what you saying about your work it is a part of your work. Its continuation.
    In other words – don’t tell people that a space ship which was blowing peoples’ mind in the theaters – it is a cardboard box. Leave a little bit of mystery and a good viewer will only thank you for that.

    But maybe I am wrong.

      Marcel I have to agree with you.. Part of our job is to sell the audience that the unbelievable things happening on screen are real.. If everyone knows that the massive earthquake is a crunching potato chip then we could be doing ourselves a disservice especially with repeated viewings. That being said there aren’t many explained away sounds in the Star Wars universe that take me out.. Those sounds will always be magical even if I do learn that some alien was a baby otter..
