Mf’ing giant wolf spiders! Damn PNW, I would’ve gave it a second thought before moving had I known.

Couple sketches, not mastered though sry!

@JamieLeeSounds Regions are super powerful for rendering. If you crate regions for each of your sfxs and name them, you can bounce out all the regions individually and name via wildcards.

Life goals here. Screw working in the studio all day long!

Happy birthday to Hermeto Pascoal, born on this day in 1936 in Lagoa da Canoa, Brazil. Here he is performing with a group of musicians in a lake in Iporanga, São Paulo in 1985.

@aaronbrownsound PhoenixVerb Surround/Front Yard just a little bit to make sounds pop/stand out. Got that from David Framer a while back.

Dang this is a powerful sequencer, already busting out some interesting sequences

[Sabroi @sabroi_]

AS Steps is out now! Features include probability control, different randomization algorithms, a harmonizer, a modulator plus so much more.

Extremely proud of the features me & @itshellbound baked into this sequencer, so happy to finally put it out!

Love this bit on creativity from Blindboy Boatclub. Often as #gameaudio folks we find ourselves juggling the creative with the technical/analytical. Love these strategies for balancing the two.

Looks like Mapping Panel is the ticket here

[Eric Van Amerongen @noiseshapes]

#gameaudio #Reaper #SoundDesign community. Is anyone aware of a device that allows me to map one input/knob to multiple parameters so I can control multiple settings at a time with just one knob? I do this a lot in Ableton with the MultiMap device, super handy.

Rainy day synth exportation with the kiddo

[Eric Van Amerongen @noiseshapes]

@DynInterference Yeah, I'm getting that the performance needs to be more exaggerated, unfortunately dealing with a smaller space ATM. Saturating, enhancing transients, rbass, and some inflator seems to be doing the trick.

[Eric Van Amerongen @noiseshapes]

Curious if anyone has tips for recording and processing slow gentle cloth flaps that need to stand out in a busy mix. Finding it quite challenging, more then I thought it would be.
