This siren bested me last time when I recorded it. Actually I bested myself by somehow accidentally recording at 48khz. But NOT TODAY. Today I came 192kHz/32bit ready to both capture ultrasonics and not worry about gain. #fieldrecording #warningsiren #soundeffects

Happy #sounddesign accidents are my favorite.

Laughing Robot?
Synthy Boomerang?
Sci-fi Alert?

Excited to see what I capture this year! 🛩️

To be fair I'm only going stereo this time, but same location. Away from all those noisy people who carelessly verbalize their amazement at a military jet flying directly over their heads 😆

Chicago skyline sunset from the Indiana Dunes.

First attempt at capturing this. Only happens during two short windows of the year. I'm so happy the planning & weather worked out!

Thanks to @victwav.bsky.social for the assistance in the cold and @cshimala.bsky.social for the inspiration/tips!

You can't go wrong with @mattiacellotto.bsky.social Animal Hyperealism SFX and Byome. Nothing like what I intended to create, but here we are 😆 #sounddesign

Another odd #sounddesign day. Now with 50% more Atmos!

$2,350 raised for @msf.ca! Thanks for helping celebrate 10 years of #collectedtransients everybody! More details soon, but just wanted to share my gratitude for the shares, kind words, and of course purchases/donations. Love y'all!

What can you expect from #collectedtransients over the next 10 years?

Last day of ALL proceeds going to @msf.ca. Amazed by the support & excited to announce the grand total tomorrow! Thanks for the love, y'all!

I use my own #collectedtransients sound effects a LOT... but these two projects came to mind during my interview with @victwav.bsky.social

#sounddesign #gameaudio #filmsound

So freaking cool to hear how and talented designers are using #collectedtransients in their #sounddesign

Hear from Robbie Stambler, Dillon Bennett, @ghaddad.bsky.social, Gurwal Coïc-Gallas and Juan Uribe.

If you use an indie library in something fun, let the creator know. It'll make their day.

Been using Transmutator more and more. The "Transient" setting is one I hadn't used before. Keeps the transient of the source, and tail of the side chain. #sounddesign

One last Byome video for the week never hurt anyone. This time #sounddesign for more scifi ship bys! Sourced from a Jeep Trackhawk recording by @victwav.bsky.social and I.

I don't have a Byome problem...
YOU have a Byome problem.

Anyone using their iPad/tablet for sound design? Now that I'm doing more #sounddesign work at home I'm loving having a new tool to work with. Here's my DAW <--> iPad flow:

In more Byome/Shitty Talk Back Mic news... I had to do some odd voice processing for a scene and saved this preset: "That Guys Voice Makes Me Uncomfortable"

Try out the preset if you'd like:

Recording your own sounds is the best for #sounddesign. This is a (not great) recording of rolling a pool ball on guitar strings that I capture like ~15 years ago that came to mind while designing a scene. There's no library that you'll know better than the sounds you capture yourself!
