Default How did they create that sound on "Mercy Mercy Me"?

philicorda scribbled:


The 'ping' sound was made by heavily eqing the reverb return.
Put a band pass after the reverb, preferably a steep synth filter type.
It doesn't really matter too much what the played sound source is.


Or just de-tune the plate :-)


The idea of detuning an EMT plate for a single effect just boggles my
mind;-)
