How were the sounds of Doom weapons created?

[TheMafla]

Hello, well I have had this doubt for a long time since I would like to know if I could make sounds similar to these or almost the same style. So how were the sounds made for weapons? I know that the sounds of the enemies are mostly from Animals but what about the weapons?

It's the same deal. There's a lot of mixing between various Sound Ideas Series 6000 tracks to produce them. The shotgun's one of the explosion tracks faded down with a cocking mixed in. The pistol is very compressed.

Per Kristian talked a bit about how the various weapon (and some non-weapon) sounds were put together, when he was making the hi-res doom sound pack.
