@AudioPluginGuy I find Tonal Balance Control great for giving me a heads-up on that sort of thing.

@GeoffZanelli It worked for the brass part of the Imperial March from Star Wars.

@hellylovesrawk Steam is still good.

Epic has 1 free game a day over Christmas. Otherwise they've been doing 1 free game a week.

GOG occasionally has freebies.

You can buy games at EA, but they also have a subscription: basic tier is £19.99/year for almost everything except their newest.

@3rdEchoSounds @Ki3_SeedOfLife @MusicWeeklies Glad it helped.

[Anthony Fung @ant_f]

@3rdEchoSounds @Ki3_SeedOfLife @MusicWeeklies It's not YouTube, but this might help - it's an article I wrote that explores sidechaining

[Anthony Fung @ant_f]

@3rdEchoSounds @Ki3_SeedOfLife @MusicWeeklies Don't forget that in addition to this you can sidechain the bass to kicks. This makes the bass quieter when the kicks play.

Be careful not to go overboard with the settings though, or you'll end up with pumping - unless that's the effect that you want.

@TimothyAdan @MusicWeeklies I've heard some really good things about Valhalla. I might have to take a closer look and maybe try a demo

[Anthony Fung @ant_f]

@TimothyAdan @MusicWeeklies Very cool. They sound organic when they play together - I thought it was something like singing bowls, or gamelan instruments.

[Anthony Fung @ant_f]

@wingsofatheme @MusicWeeklies Love the build up and scale of this

[Anthony Fung @ant_f]

@PeteHawkey @MusicWeeklies There's a slight superhero feel to this (in a good way) - I like it

[Anthony Fung @ant_f]

@TimothyAdan @MusicWeeklies Nice. What instrument is it? It's got a nice timbre.

Christmas has come early: Get a full sound effects library (800+ sounds) – completely free! https://t.co/0otLo5tezq via @asoundeffect

[Anthony Fung @ant_f]

@hapatonic @MusicWeeklies Very nice - I love how this slowly opens up into something big, and how the build-up has a feel of suspense and drive to it.

[Anthony Fung @ant_f]

@CosmicBos @MusicWeeklies I like it - the music feels fun, and yet the lyrics really offer something to think about

[Anthony Fung @ant_f]

Had to rush the mix a little, but here’s my @MusicWeeklies entry for #AfterLife

I tried to capture the story that the image was telling me: that of someone travelling from a dark and unknown place, to where they are embraced by the light

@tinelinen @MusicWeeklies @thecuetube Thanks Tine! I initially thought about using a marimba, but ended up using a log drum for a slightly different timbre.

I also EQ'd out quite a bit of the low end to prevent it from being muddy.

[Anthony Fung @ant_f]

My first @MusicWeeklies entry 😀

I was aiming for a subtle underscore that invoked a sense of curiosity, and wouldn't get in the way of either the narration or the natural soundscape.

@wiktorthemes @MusicWeeklies @thecuetube I love the dreamy feel to this. It's also very cool how there's a sense of danger roughly midway through.

[Anthony Fung @ant_f]

@stefanbohacek @MusicWeeklies @thecuetube Very cool. The rhythm really moves things forward, and the pauses introduce suspense.

I love how the sound of the fleeing animals roughly halfway through reinforces the returning drumbeats.

[Anthony Fung @ant_f]

@Francis55274767 @thecuetube @MusicWeeklies The music syncs really well to the narration and events in this. Really nice!
