Had a blast being on this panel at #gamesoundcon2023. Honor to have joined @fxdupas @EdVaisman, and @afrodrumunit. Thanks to @mathieulavoie for putting it together! Love to see very kind people doing big things. #gameaudio #audioprogramming #sideglobal #wwise #vibeavenue #unreal

I just went back to SCAD to talk students in game audio and noticed that a few folks had this disconnect between sound design and implementation—that they are completely separate things and designing sound is the fun part and putting it in game is this rote tedious 2nd step (1/4)

What a tremendous week for Epic! I wanted to give a special shout-out to all of the Epic audio teams that did an amazing job on both the content and technology for these releases 👍. The audio, VO and music are a delight!

What I've been working on for most of this year.

[Max Hayes @MacksHazeAudio]

@minuskelvin Somebody once tried to avoid admitting they hadn’t forgotten my name by asking me how to spell it.

[Max Hayes @MacksHazeAudio]

@minuskelvin

[Max Hayes @MacksHazeAudio]

@minuskelvin Also, this is not the first time they've done the give-a-team-of-professional-videographers-an-iphone stunt. They do something similar for almost every version of the iPhone.

It's the cinematography equivalent of hiring a body-builder to show off a bowflex.

[Max Hayes @MacksHazeAudio]

@minuskelvin As such, its a disingenuous claim to say "shot on iPhone" which implies "you could do this too if you had an iPhone." The article attempts to convey why you, in fact, probably cannot.

Get ready to press play on these new musical devices 🎶

Get a first look at Patchwork, coming to #UEFN and the Creative Toolset later this year.

do you like modular music systems? here's a look at something awesome that we've been working on for the past 2 years, coming next month, for free, to fortnite! it's called patchwork:

[Max Hayes @MacksHazeAudio]

That part of the day where I have a caffeine headache, but also that voice in my head that says “2nd latte is for winners, and winners figure out their pointer arithmetic issues.”

[Max Hayes @MacksHazeAudio]

@ChrisZukoArt Also I'd put a mattress cover on in case you do have an issue, its protected.

[Max Hayes @MacksHazeAudio]

@ChrisZukoArt As others have said: don't bring those home! We had these in an apartment years ago and it was many sleepless night and thousands of dollars to remedy!

Steam anything you can, wash / dry anything you can on very high heat, and bag/throw away anything you can part with.
