If you've heard some of SB's new material, his Nu-style-Gabber, listen to the kick drums, prety simple gabber kick drums yeh, but can some one help me identify what FX he puts on them - then and again at the end of each bar, when they go squeeky... here's what i've thought of but some i don't know what they do and some i've tried and don't sound the same:
Resonant HPF setting on each kick < doesn't quite sound like it
Ring-Mod with a Sine-wave < doesn't do it either
Comb-Filter < what does this do i've heard about it somewhere
that's all i can think of, maybe i should email scott B but i think it might be a secret technique of his, what a greedy man!

I've been wanting to know how to do this too. I heard it's all distortion and cutoff.

The best thing to do is ask on the Evolution records forums :) Or, like you said, e-mail him, you don't know untill you ask :)

yeh Comet I Think it is actually the High Pass Filter option, it sort of works, get a prob that does it first (I used VAZ Modular but there's loads of other programs)
Load up the kick, whack it through a Highpass Filter (Oposit of the very used Lowpass one) put the Resonance up very high, or max!! and tweak the Cutoff, sample a different Cutoff setting for about 5 kick separate kick drums and sequence them later on. tada!
oh and yeh and distortion. I belive Rotterdam Terror Corps have done this too, it's not Scott Browns idea, he got the idea off them i think. (and aload of other ideas like chopping up vocals and making it sound clever lol)

Yeah, the idea in itself is not new, but this is how I do it.
Get you favourite sequencer handy. I'll describe this from a Fruity Loops perspective, just cos its easier.
I get my bassdrum sample (a simple one). Distort it.
Load 2 as "samplers". Like 2 differenet samplers.Call one a kase drum (the squeeky one) and the other the bassdrum. Set one to loop like a normal beat. With your Kase drum, set the filter settings to a highpass with a touch of resosance (sp??). It should sould really squeeky.
What I do now is this.
Loop the 4/4 bassdrum rhythm for 3 bars. On the 4th bar, have it hit 3 times. Now hit your Kase drum in an offbeat manner (like triplets) towards the end of the 4th bar.
Hope that makes some sense.
