Sue Denim.. Posted March 16, 2006 Report Share Posted March 16, 2006 How the fuck can The Berzerker play live when everything is sped up and synthesized? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sue Denim.. Posted March 20, 2006 Report Share Posted March 20, 2006 Why make comments on subjects you know nothing about?Quoted from Terrorizer magazine.....Talking about 'World of Lies' Luke says... "They (the rest of the band) already knew what was going to happen; I'm gonna take all their shit and speed it up, slow it down and cut it up. That's why the recording and writing session was relaxed; they knew what was happening."Berzerker use drum sampling, ie, you hit the drum and it activates the sampler. One hit, two thuds. Duh.

Lexicon Devil Posted March 20, 2006 Report Share Posted March 20, 2006 Right, the video posted featured a tune from their earlier album on which the Drums were programmed. It's also footage from when they had their first drummer.For the second album some chap called Gary played the drums live, although they were obvioulsy triggered. I'm pretty sure that for tracks like Jigsore Quandary Gary's recordings were sped up, as from the live footage I've seen they don't play quite as fast. How many tracks went through the same treatment if any I couldn't tell you. I can tell you however that playing at speeds close to there certainly is possible.As for programming two "notes" to every strike: I'm almost certain that wouldn't be done. I'd imagine many problems would be found when changing tempo etc...If you had it set to play 16ths at 280bpm (you'd play 8ths and it would double it up) you;d be totally fucked if you dropped/gained any tempo as the module would have the samples set with a definite gap inbetween the actual and duplicated notes to sound constant. Same as if you stopped playing a run of double bass, everytime you struck a single hit you'd fire off two in very short sucession, sounding like arse. In short unless you literally were playing the same thing at the exact same time for all the songs coordinating such programming would be a nightmare, I'd imagine at least. I've never had any first hand experience doing so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dougfast Posted March 20, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 20, 2006 luke writes the drums on his computer prints out the tab and the drummer read the tabs and played them, well this is what happened on dissimulate. on the first album they did use a drum machine but the use a real drummer live.

Sue Denim.. Posted March 21, 2006 Report Share Posted March 21, 2006 Personally I have no objections with what Berzerker do to get their sound. I think they sound great. As for drum machines, does anyone remember the most famous drum machine 'Dr Avalanche' from the Sisters of Mercy. Famously known for being the most unpaid drummer in the world.

Teabags Posted March 21, 2006 Report Share Posted March 21, 2006 as far as im aware, the one hit triggering a double snare sample wouldn't be possible with the berzerker. just listen to No One Wins, the temp changes (like all out blasts into Slayerish beats) would mean either the drummer would have to be very precise with how many times EXACTLY he hit the snare (to trigger the sample to stop the double hitting) or someone would have to be controlling the sample to stop it manually.whatever, they're fucking ace though. Doug, Im still contemplating wether I want to go to this or not. Do you know if its sold out? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
