The Hoover Sound Explained


Sponsored:

Get professional-grade mixing tools for zero cost with the eaReckon FREE87 Series. This essential bundle features a gate, compressor, equalizer, and limiter, all derived from the acclaimed ANALOG87 series. Designed with a "ears-first" philosophy, these plugins provide analog-style warmth and smooth performance without complex interfaces—perfect for adding high-quality, transparent processing to any production.

The ‘hoover’ or ‘mentasm’ is a classic sound heard in rave and dance music. Used by The Prodigy, Joey Beltram, Human Resource… and even Rihanna! The original sound is from the Roland Alpha Juno 2 synth, but you can recreate it using any modern software synth like Serum or Vital.
