Hi guys,
I'm new here and I hope you guys can point me in the right direction.
I want to create a sound using similar effect in the mp3 linked below. I have no idea what it is, but I'm guessing it's some kind of tremolo effect. I'm not that experienced with effect so I hope you guys can help

There are three clips in the audio you linked to, which all include the same rhythmic element and similar effects. What I heard was a rhythmic element of rapidly repeating 16th notes (semiquavers, in 4/4 time, 4 groups of 4 semiquavers to a bar), and tone change effects between dark and bright. The tone change was probably achieved with varying speeds of wah, probably combined with flanger and/or phaser.
In the first clip I heard a D note, which sounded to me like plucked guitar with delay applied to achieve the rapid repeats, and accented by layering a D an octave higher like so:
Beats 1234 2234 3234 4234
Beats 12D4 1D3D 12D4 1D3D
Beats dddd dddd dddd dddd
The "1234" represents each group of 4 semiquavers (4 groups to a bar).
The upper case "D" represents the higher octave D note used to create the accented effect.
The lower case "dddd" represents the repeated semiquavers in the lower octave.
Additionally, I heard what sounded to me like fast wah layered over slow wah for the tone change effect.
In the second clip I heard brushes hitting a snare drum, also created with delay, with flanger or phaser changing the tone from bright to dark, in B flat.
In the third clip I heard brushes brushing a snare drum in the first half, then that faded out to be replaced by a B flat and C note together in the second half doing the same rhythmic effect (or else the B flat/C dissonance was maybe achieved with a chorus effect), and on this I heard some wah, plus flanger and/or phaser applied to achieve that rhythmic vibrato effect (which is just quickly increasing and decreasing the volume on that note).
As near as I can tell, that's how those effects were achieved. I hope that helped?
Good luck.

what they are exactly im not sure but you can achieve that sound with a gater. get illformed.org/plugins/glitch
I agree.. gating would work.
Or you could just automate volume or map volume to a square wave.
