Whip, I’ve found that most movies don’t have that much in the way of very low below 40Hz effects. With few exceptions I have to set the filter on my Buttkicker up to 55Hz to get the earth shaking feel I would expect out of what I’m actually seeing on the screen.

Yeah. What happened to the good old days when two half coconut shells were all you needed for a horse? No CGI, no roving the world looking for exotic sounds.

Hi Fred,
Yeah you're right. Come to think of it though, didn't they make an episode of Gilligan's Island using this sophisticated technique?


With out Jesus Christ there can be no Redemption or Salvation.

And those horse sounds are even better when you see the characters clapping the coconuts together on the screen

I think the irony of that would be if they had to use a foley artist to produce the sound of the coconuts. Which they probably did.

grin The 'coconut voice-over'. I don't know if they used a real foley artist though. As I recall they had no budget for the movie at all.

Hmmm... wonder what those coconuts sound like with an ep800.

Yup, they did... and i think Gilligan was assigned coconut duty.... I remember watching that episode when i was "home sick" from school one day....
