Satan's Saw.
 

A comment from Khazul in another thread got me thinking...

If anyone has captured one of these, I would really like to get my hands on the wave. :D

The best i could find!!!

BWAHHHH!!!!

Who knew that Satan would be such a clean-cut-western-white-man?

Heh!

Great pic!

:lol:

and my boss for 71 more days. . . . . . :wink:

Hehehe! Not quite the "Satan's saw" I was looking for, but definitely a great pic! Thanks for that Merl. :D

Bump.

Anyone out there managed to record one of these yet?

The problem is that anyone who has experienced this phenomena scrambles for every volume/power switch in sight to avoid damage to equipment.

I have read a post from one user stating both of the tweeters in his alesis monitors blew simultaneously as a result of the satan saw...

guess he shouldnt have bought alesis monitors :wink: im kidding, of course...

cheers

Blay

After mucho tracking and stalking - eventually captured one alive: 30 seconds of raw satanic sawdom :). I think this one was a juvenile - not as vicious as the grown up ones :)

Ill probably take this file off after a few days to conserve my site bandwidth - grab it while you can :)

I know this subject has been done to death, but as Ive said before - anyone who get their monitors blown up by this was gonna loose their monitors anyway eventually for one reason or other due to inadequate gain control - and yes - also for choosing monitors that were obviously not suitable for a studio environment where silly things happen (mics left on, guitars left with gain maxed etc, midi CC7 sent to a synth at the wrong time etc...)...

There another thread about this somewhere here - cant remember which :)

There has been much more dscussion re Satan's Saw on the Ampfea mailing list - that might be the best place to get some samples HC.

Thanks heaps for that sample Khazul! It doesn't sound how I expected actually, but I'll see what I can do with it.

Yeah I was thinking of putting something on that list, but seeing as I know all of you guys it was more logical here - don't wanna seem as if I'm creating something based on the misfortune of others.

Anyway, that "Satan's Saw" would be horrific if you weren't expecting it! Does it come out at a louder volume than the patches being played, or at a louder volume than even the main volume outs?
