I am trying to recreate the 'shing' sound which can be heard at 1:22 in this video - https://vimeo.com/106517842 and also another variation at around 0:32 in this one - https://vimeo.com/106517842.
I'm having a little trouble getting it just right (it needs to sound 100% authentic for this project). I'm thinking maybe synthesised sounds with a fast pitch envelope could work, rather than processed metal sounds which is the other possible route.
Any ideas/tips would be super helpful. Plus this is quite a commonly used sound in a lot of japanese cartoons and arcade games, so perhaps there is some kind of 'trick of the trade' established method for creating them someone might know about!
