Section 1: Player documentation
-------------------------------

When I started to create these sound effects, my intension was to produce
something that should frighten every player who listens to it. Indeed, all
people who are confrontated with my sounds the first time, really rush back
after each time they hear a monster's welcome scream. So if you are terrified

* Construction notes *

Almost all of the sounds you can hear I have done myself just by
using my voice and some very simple equipment. A few sounds are
directly copied from some of my CDs. The last type of sounds was
created by just copying and sometimes modifying SFX data that I
found in other WAD files (including DOOM2.WAD).

The following list describes how some of my sounds were generated
and how they sound:

Wolfenstein soldier dying
=========================

This sound is contained in the song 'Schrei nach Liebe' by the german
band 'Die ?rzte'. In English this sound means 'arse-hole' (sorry, I 
just translated!).

Wolfenstein solder spotting player
==================================

This was reversed and means 'Mein F?hrer'. Sorry for that but how
else should a realistic Wolfenstein soldier sound? At least I reversed
it so that you do not have to remember those horrible words every time
you meet a Wolfenstein soldier!

Plasma rifle shot
=================

Now this sounds so dangerous that all the baddies should have respect of
your plasma gun attacks. Even I have to say: It pretty shows off! I created
this one by generating an explosion and mixed it with itself just a little
after the beginning. So it sounds quite robotized and technical.

Player punching with fists
==========================

Whether you believe it or not: This was a 'popsnare2' sample within a
MOD file. I added a little bit of echo and slightly decreased the pitch.

BFG9000 firing
==============

I found this one in the StarWars sound WAD. Probably it is too showy!

BFG9000 round explosion
=======================

Swanky, effective and quite noisy. This is the BFG9000 megablast
detonation.

All human death sounds
======================

Don't ask! I just died into the microphone.

All explosion sounds
====================

I simply blew into the microphone. It really works!

Cacodemon dying
===============

I drank the remaining Lipton ice tea using a nylon straw.

Cyberdemon dying
================

This sound has two parts: A scream and an explosion. I have tried to
time it exactly, so that it matches the cyberdemon resolving.

Cacodemon spotting player
=========================

An ancient player death scream had its pitch modified and was equipped
with some echo.

Hell knight dying, Baron of Hell dying
======================================

These two sounds were created from the final wacky laughter of the
Metallica song 'Master of Puppets'.

Cyberdemon spotting player
==========================

This is just a human growl that was overdriven heavily.

Arch-Vile dying
===============

Lovely scream! To create it I mixed together some of my own screams and
tuned the result.

Imp active (nearby)
===================

This was an angry growl of mine. I speeded it up a little and then I
reversed the sound.

Pain scream (demon creatures)
=============================

It is just me pumping up some slime. I took the sound and slowed it
down by 100 percent.

Soldier spotting player (1)
===========================

"Hey, gonna say you die!". This is what I said to create this sound.

Final enemy spotting player
===========================

Well, this is a mixture of at least ten different sounds!

Final enemy dying
=================

This is a scream from the film 'Predator'.

Final enemy spitting a cube
===========================

This one was also made by blowing into my microphone.

Barrel explosion
================

As mentioned above, I blew into my Intel(tm) microphone. Perhaps it
is a little bit too loud and showy but I like it! It is so mighty!

Getting power
=============

This was a sample wave file with a Chinese gong sound.

Lost soul attacking
===================

It is one hell of a perverse laughter. A friend of mine
created that sound.

Mancubus attacking
==================

Sorry, there is no chance for me to find out what I said to make
this one sound so nice! All I know is that I applied some time
compression and slowed it down after adding a little bit of echo.

Soldier/Mancubus active (nearby)
================================

Oh, shame! I copied it from the game "Heretic" where it was the
Sabreclaw's attack sound. But I have equipped it with much more echo!

Enemy fireball being set free
=============================

Again, blowing into my microphone was the right thing to do...

Enemy fireball explosion/Plasma rifle hit/Lost soul dying
=========================================================

I just blew into the microphone.

Pain Elemental spotting player
==============================

Some perverse laughter of mine tuned and a ton of echo have
resulted in this nice SFX.

Arachnotron spotting player
===========================

This is a quite realistic sound. It consists of a robotized
car motor start-up and a floor move sound from another PWAD.

To understand this sound properly you must imagine the electronic
computer-driven Arachnotron initializing its mechanical engines.

Arachnotron nearby
------------------

This tone is annoying and repeated from time to time (perhaps some
sort of parity check)

Arachnotron dying
-----------------

Motor slow-down and a mechanical crash-down you can hear when an
Arachnotron has to die.

Spider mastermind dying
=======================

What you hear is my morbid coughing which was slowed down and
complemented by some echo.

This is just a human growl that was overdriven heavily.

Arch-Vile dying
===============

Lovely scream! To create it I mixed together some of my own screams and
tuned the result.

Imp active (nearby)
===================

This was an angry growl of mine. I speeded it up a little and then I
reversed the sound.

Pain scream (demon creatures)
=============================

It is just me pumping up some slime. I took the sound and slowed it
down by 100 percent.

Soldier spotting player (1)
===========================

"Hey, gonna say you die!". This is what I said to create this sound.

Final enemy spotting player
===========================

Well, this is a mixture of at least ten different sounds!

Final enemy dying
=================

This is a scream from the film 'Predator'.

Final enemy spitting a cube
===========================

This one was also made by blowing into my microphone.

Barrel explosion
================

As mentioned above, I blew into my Intel(tm) microphone. Perhaps it
is a little bit too loud and showy but I like it! It is so mighty!

Getting power
=============

This was a sample wave file with a Chinese gong sound.

Lost soul attacking
===================

It is one hell of a perverse laughter. A friend of mine
created that sound.

Mancubus attacking
==================

Sorry, there is no chance for me to find out what I said to make
this one sound so nice! All I know is that I applied some time
compression and slowed it down after adding a little bit of echo.

Soldier/Mancubus active (nearby)
================================

Oh, shame! I copied it from the game "Heretic" where it was the
Sabreclaw's attack sound. But I have equipped it with much more echo!

Enemy fireball being set free
=============================

Again, blowing into my microphone was the right thing to do...

Enemy fireball explosion/Plasma rifle hit/Lost soul dying
=========================================================

I just blew into the microphone.

Pain Elemental spotting player
==============================

Some perverse laughter of mine tuned and a ton of echo have
resulted in this nice SFX.

Arachnotron spotting player
===========================

This is a quite realistic sound. It consists of a robotized
car motor start-up and a floor move sound from another PWAD.

To understand this sound properly you must imagine the electronic
computer-driven Arachnotron initializing its mechanical engines.

Arachnotron nearby
------------------

This tone is annoying and repeated from time to time (perhaps some
sort of parity check)

Arachnotron dying
-----------------

Motor slow-down and a mechanical crash-down you can hear when an
Arachnotron has to die.

Spider mastermind dying
=======================

What you hear is my morbid coughing which was slowed down and
complemented by some echo.
