A lot of sounds like that can be made with Sugarbytes' Cyclop, you could just take a preset and easily tweak it/make it into your own thing. In fact, I highly recommend demoing that synth and running through the presets. It's a killer synth in general as well imo.

In fact, it wouldn't surprise me at all if those sounds were made with Cyclop...or perhaps one of the more famous FM monsters.

If you want to be completely original and do it on your own, just buy Serum or perhaps Nave vst and go for it. Surf the presets and gain knowledge as you tweak.

You don't need us.

i just mean making the grinding and pounding sounds really, not the tonal sounds, but I'll mess with one of these synths anyway. Thanks!

This sounds very interesting, I love IL synths in general thank you!

My friend, if you haven't tried out Cyclop yet, I am pretty sure you're going to really like it. It can do all that stuff you mentioned, and I have to tell you, you can tweak it to make it sound freekin' BRUTAL!

I use it all the time, for melodies and such

Word, I'll get it then!

Massive can do these sort of sounds, check out the Leap into the void soundsets.

Some of those fx are definitely processed samples, particularly the ones you seem most interested in.

You can get atonal metallic sounds with synths like Serum, but some sounds are just much easier to get with samples. If you hear a sound in either of the following tracks that interests you let me know and I'll explain how it is made.

I agree that samples will be all but necessary for some bits.
Synths can create the 'bed', but real recorded analog noises can be too intricate to try and re-create, imo, and add something that is hard to fake.

Good suggestions here already, but you might look at foley-ish sample packs too.
Some stuff too check out;

Sonic Couture
Bluezone Corp

Also, this was just released, and is reallyreallyreally good;

That hammery slam sound can be done by adding resonators (combined with wide reverb) to an already punchy sound.

To make it punchy and violent, eq followed by compression, limiting and transient shaping (to a lesser extent) is what I would use usually.

Great post! However, as you know the advantage of Serum over samples is that you actually learn how to do things yourself, and can personalize everything to a minute degree. Same goes for Cyclop, though of course one turns to that more to have a starting base, Serum seems to be best for starting from scratch and having the means to potentially insert your personality in a dominating way.

Serum seems to be the winning choice then
For more reference here's some sounds I'd love to be making right now lol
