Heartbeat
Description
A heartbeat sound I created. Fairly consistent through most of it, and then speeds up into heart-attack mode about 30 seconds from the end.
To make it, I took a kick-drum sample and a snare-drum sample, and made a pattern of kick-snare, kick-snare, kick-snare, over and over. I then EQ'd them to be less distinct and drum-like, added tape saturation to increase the low-end thumping, a small chorus effect and some compression to get rid of the drums' attack...basically just over-processed the hell out of it. Then I used a plugin called Wok M-ST to get a fake hard-panned stereo effect.
My goal was to make it sound like your heartbeat sounds in your ears when you've been running too fast for too long. I think it sounds cool.
