Landing Jet 1.0.0

   (0 reviews)

About This File

This is a hex layer attempt at the landing jet at the beginning and end of "Back in the USSR", by the Beatles. The zip file contains an MP3 of the sample so you can listen to it before you go through all the effort of loading it into the PX-5S.

Downloaded the mp3, sounds very close to original, nice work...what tones or samples did you use to create this jet sound?  I am trying to recreate something similar but not quite the same sound-the beginning of the Ventures "Telstar"-a classic piece from my original vinyl LP complete with raucous roller rink organ-sounds like full drawbars out.  Problem is, I am using the PX560 for this arrangement. Any insight you might have, thanks. Am reasonably capable regarding programming tones and hex layers. I've uploaded the original Telstar arrangement, not mine as an mp3 so you can hear what I am posting about. And the PX560 is somewhat similar regarding editing tones, but without the real time slide controls.

That sound is a stack of 4 Pink Noise layers.  Since they're noise, they don't have a pitch and you can't use the pitch envelope to change it.  Instead, I used the filter envelope and added a resonance peak.  Then, by changing the filter envlope, the modulation peak changes and gives you the "whine" of the engines.  I fiddled a little with trying to duplicate your sample, but didn't get too far.  You can change the direction of the pitch by having the filter levels go up instead of down, but that doesn't get too far, either.  Also, White Noise is a little less "rumbly" and that might work a little better for what you're trying to do.  Finally, there is a bit of a hollow sound in your sample.  I started to get close to that with the Flanger DSP, but the flanger oscillates and you can't control where it starts.  Since the flanger is just an oscillating super-short delay, I was able to approximate that hollow sound by adding the delay with a value of 1, but it is very constant and doesn't have the movement that your sample did.

I didn't realize you could attach files to the comments like you did.  I'll have to do that instead of including the sample in zipped up with the PX-5S data!
