Old school sounding stab in defcom 69 (metal headz)

[Meloz]

Anyone have any ideas on how to create that old school stab sound in defcom 69 by total science? It's in the build up before the main drop, it's the 3 short stabs which is then followed by a reesey sounding bass.

Cheers!

It's odd, it almost sounds like there is a high-hat in there too. Ive tried experimenting with some triangle and square waves, de-tuning them, adding a filter, distort and then reverb but I can't get it to sound right.

at work at the mo - so cant play that tune. metal headz (oldskool) used to have a sound that was a hoover with filter envelope on the pitch. weeown (lol)
they used that in a lot of tunes. as i said at work so sorry if that isnt the sound u refering to m8

[Meloz]

It could be because further on in the song, it has a couple of stabs in a lower pitch which sounds slightly more hoovery.

[Bad Ace]

i think its just a hoover pitched up

[felun]

either pitched up synth chord stab or mentasm or combo of the two?

[Meloz]

I'll have a play again tonight and experiment with pitched up hoovers, see how close I can get.

Cheers
