The biggest thing holding your mix back is not fixing phase issues. You can have all the fancy plugins/gear in the world but if you aren't reigning phase in you'll end up with a dull sounding mix

Your master is only as strong as your mix. Your mix is only as strong as the composition

Are there agents for audio engineers? If not, someone should get on that cuz you'd make a killing. Most of us are sound gremlins that suck at marketing ourselves

Hey #indiedev I'm running an early Black Friday promo for dialog editing/mixing.
If you have voiced lines the edit/mix quality can make or break the player experience. Let me help you get the best results possible!

These days you have to take the little wins when you get them. My ears are so locked in right now that -24lufs for a broadcast mix needs no loudness correction assistance

I wish there was a one size fits all tool for dialogue work but I still have to flip between SpectraLayers Pro and RX Advanced due to one doing something better than the other

As I'm doing adjudication for an #audiodrama festival it's baffling how many are compressing the 🤬 out of their master that it sounds overbaked/crispy/distorted
Don't do that. You're ruining all your hard work of sound designing, #editing and #mixing by crisping the overall tone

Learning in a practical sense how environmental acoustics work will make your sound so much better and immersive for story based content
Knowing how sound reacts in the world under different scenarios is what separates placing sfx in a timeline vs creating an experience

This is my most recent cross stitch project, Stitch. Over 100k stitches and took me half a year to complete 😅

Hey #indiedev community.
If I were to run a special for you to have sound effects for your game, what price amount per sound would YOU be willing to pay?

Yeah layers in sound design are important but what really makes a scene come alive via sound is all about movement: panning and EQ changes
A static mix will void any scene of "life"/immersion

Sound Design is like drawing for sound. You have to "sketch" out the idea then fill in the details

I love learning new audio techniques that make my life easier but sometimes when I learn a new thing that's WAY better than any previous methods I've done it's like "how did I not think of this?!"

I'd:
Buy an acreage and build a house that each of my immediate family gets their own wing
Build a dedicated studio building on said land
Fund and produce indie games
