Does anyone know what sound / sample / VST / etc etc LH used to create the digeridoo-esque sound on IMD?

I'm working on a track that could use a dose of Aborigine but I'm struggling to find a decent sound.

The best way for you in this situation, would be to find your own sample :3 Even better than finding it: record it yourself! Hang up a note on your local shop or supermarket with "looking for degeridoo player for quick studio work".

I actually did try to play the digeridoo a couple of weeks ago as my mate's got one but failed miserably. He couldn't play for shit either, don't really know what he's doing with one.

Not to worry, I'll find my sample - was just curious as it's an awesome sound used on IMD.

I just recently discovered something about IMD I hadn't noticed before. The track starts with the bass sounds and they evolve into the cool distorted sounds before the beat drops. It's only some while ago I listened to it more carefully and it really sounds like a vocal sample saying "Invade-vade-vadeeer!". Distorted and effected so heavily it sounds like a wicked synth. Makes also sense because that's the line Maxim uses live when they play IMD. Just found it funny I always listened to it like "Yeaah awesome sound there" but just now noticed it's probably a vocal

Well fuck me sideways with a rusty bread knife, I think you might actually be right. It's not a digeridooish type sample, it's the word 'Invader' chopped up and heavily vocodededed / distorted.

Well spotted Mowgli. If I was Baloo I'd give you a prickly pear for being so observant.

Yeah, vocoder'd sample chopped up. Sounds neat though

Ha hahaha, next time i listen to the first 30 seconds of Invaders, instead of humming 'Invader, vader, vader' in my head. Im now gonna be thinking of Rolf Harris. Brilliant.

mowgli, nice spot indeed.

,,,,actually, i always thought it sounds like a vocal saying like "Baby-baby-babyyyy" but i thought that 'nah, it can't be'. well, like said, nice spotted.

i actually thought that the disorted vocal was just a coincidence

what does that mean?

All this time with the digeridoo talk I had no idea what you're talking about. Now I know what you mean finally.
