Hi guys, I'm a huge fan of good sound design, being a musician for 20+ years. I want to ask, who and how did you make the sound for Cho'gath ultimate? It really does have such a beastly quality so it can't just be a special voice talent, there has to be some technique to it? Something like an octave down double layer? Or did you just use a specific vocalizer box?
Care to reveal how you did it?
Riotjaywatford4 votesHi Phero,
Thanks for the question! The vocal aspect was actually recorded here in the office, and was performed by a couple of the RIOTers on the art team. It's multiple voices recorded at the same time, and then pitched down with a formant shifter with some bass added in. There's also some layers of blood and bone cracking SFX added to make it a little more vicious.
Let us know if you have any other questions!
Cheers, Jay

What were they saying? Or were they just growling random things? (Also, is your name a reference to Gnar? Or is Gnar's taunt a reference for your name? He says something like that xD)

Gnar's taunt that you're referring to was "Jard Waitford", for the record.

Hm, I guess we can't really tell for sure since his speech is a bit...childlike, imo

Thanks alot man. I appreciate you taking the time. I wouldn't have guessed that it was more than one voice.
