I am psyched to have recreated the #dalek control room heartbeat sound, made in 1963 by Brian Hodgeson of the #BBC Radiophonic Workshop, this is an iconic sound, still used today, that I could not think how to recreate...until today.

It's not perfect, criticisms welcome, but it's closer than I ever thought I'd get. Check it out! For reference, here's the original. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=su45cczykO8&list=RDsu45cczykO8&start_radio=1 #DoctorWho #SoundDesign #SoundEffects #SFX #SoundFX

#IMadeAThing! I've refined my #Dalek control room heartbeat sound effect, adding more harmonics, tweaking the reverb and speeding it up a bit. I'm really psyched to have been able to get as close as I have to such an iconic sound effect. Here's the original for reference. Let me know what you think.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=su45cczykO8&list=RDsu45cczykO8&start_radio=1 #DoctorWho #SoundDesign #SoundEffects #SFX #SoundFX

@JustinMac84 I can't tell the difference.

@Black_Flag Thank you!
As a total Doctor Who Nerd, I'm stoked to have made it. -

@Black_Flag I think one of the reasons I'm a sound designer is because I like Doctor Who. The classic era sound effects were brilliant! When you consider the humble origins of that sound and the tardis sound, you can't deny the genious behind them! 🤩
-
@xogium Thank you. I've refined it.
@JustinMac84 OMG! Even better. Personally, I don't see an actual difference now.

@xogium The first version, I simply ear-balled, listening to the sound, picking out prominent harmonics and creating them with sine waves. I missed quite a few though. I combed through the original sound with a very narrow band pass filter to pick out what I missed and add it in.

@JustinMac84 Talk about dedicated work. I’m impressed. I'd be hard pressed to do the same.

@xogium I'm a bit of a Doctor Who fanatic so the investment was worth it. Also it was good skill-hoaning.

@JustinMac84 Hahaha! So am I. I absolutely like the sounds the tardis make, all of them. I wonder how they were made.
And then that episode in the rebooted tv show of 2005 where you actually get the feeling of « oh, shit" because you've just heard a weeping angel blowing out the candle Rory is holding… It might not be sound design but it sure showed an attention to details.

@JustinMac84 @xogium OMG I'm not the only one that felt like that sounded like a heartbeat?

@xogium I'm not a fan of the new series. I'm classic all the way myself, but I'm glad that the show is endearing itself to a new generation. The TARDIS sound was made, primarily, by someone scraping a door key along piano strings.

@JustinMac84 @xogium Yeah, first time I heard it was on Big Finish.

@JustinMac84 Hmmm. Now that you mention it, it does make sense. There's a little something left over from the original sound in there.
And yeah I hear you about the reboot vs classic. I just hava a huge problem with classic, the sound quality puts me off every single time.
-
@JustinMac84 @xogium My first exposure was, I think, The Impossible Plannet. Then I got all into the Cybermen. So, Cybermen 1 and 2 from Big Finish. Now I'm going back through the Classic and Revival series, and I've spent money mon Big finish. I respect that they don't DRM their MP3's.

@JustinMac84 @pixelate @xogium My first was the sirons of time. Ah, such a classic.
