gilad Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 In this killer QUEEN song, The legendary Freddie sings. "is this the world we created, we made it on our own" then he sings in the same melody "is this the world we invaded!" How the heck does he give that rasp in invaded. It gives it so much more meaning. I'd love to know how to initiate this effect if possible at all.

Danielformica Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 You gotta aim your voice to the back of your head and soft palette , add a little grunt and move the air so you don't get stuck in the grunt. I know sounds weird but you really need to experiment that's the key mess around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eggplantbren Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 You've got to direct the sound towards your gall bladder and swallow your big toe. Seriously though, to me it sounds like regular (false fold) distortion (I think the underlying mode is edge). There are lots of threads on that here but one way to find it is to twang a lot until the distortion happens. Use a lot of support and energy and just try to imitate the sound (a lower pitch is probably easier to start with). If it feels uncomfortable it's not right, take a break or try something different.

eggplantbren Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 Sorry Dan, I was just messing around. Experimentation is great and so is imitating the sound. It's probably the first thing anyone should try when they're trying to find a new sound. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eggplantbren Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 I could also be wrong geran89! Sounds more intense than creaking to my ears and the note sounds full metallic. Who knows... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
