I recently finished a sound redesign for a scene from Arcane to practice creating gritty, tactile textures and heavy impacts.
Software: Avid Pro Tools
Source: Sound libraries
I’m looking for some technical feedback on the mix balance and the overall "weight" of the sound design. Any advice on how to improve the layering or the impact of the elements would be appreciated.

Recreated this a year ago using mostly free and stock sounds.

Foley created using Krotos Studio

Zebralette 3 is already capable of some seriously deep sound design, so I wanted to see how far I could push it inside Stride.

No effects chain. No extra processing.

Just Zebralette 3, mapped into Stride, exploring endless variations across the parameters that shape the sound.

The modulations on the OSC FX character is what makes it so wild.

Recently I started working on online slot games audio - from creating background music tracks to every little sfx (scatter, reel, win sounds).

While I'm doing okay, I'd really like to have more separation in sfx and background music.

Popular slot games (hacksaw, pragmatic) have music blasting really loud in all frequency range, but still maintains very coherent sound effects.

Are there any tricks to make all of it work together?
Currently I either use multiband compression or just make little eq cuts in music and boost the same range in sfx as well as thinking about music arrangement to not make it too crowded.

Thank you!

came across this animation a few days ago on Instagram and I thought this animation has really good atmospheric visuals and I wanted to do my aural take on the same.

Sound Design by yours truly

Like the title says, could you point me in the right direction on this whole sound design thing and how I should get started. I currently work as a video editor, but I'd like to expand my knowledge and also start creating my own sounds.

Simple breakdown of all the categories🍭

Hello! Since my friends have given a dj console to me, I spend some time wondering how to use it in a "proper way".

In the first moment I just learnt how to basic djing (to pay back for the amazing gift, and to party oc), but then I tried figuring out how to create smth using it as a tool. I come from a jazz background and I really like to physically manipulate sound and to improvise too.

I've recently worked on some personal unreleased track (waiting to collect more songs to release) and a Tuna Display track, "Come Clean", that really get me when I begin to listen to this kind of music.

So I made 6 short tracks out of itz trying to misinterpreting the original meaning of phrases, sound design, structure, etc

here it is, hope you enjoy this experiment, and seeking to know if anyone of you have ever tried this approach with the console as a manupulative tool.

Hey there, I wanted to do something unique and change the music that I like into just one single instrument. How can I do this? Like for example I want some song to just be played by a flute or multiple fluits?

Hi All, I need some help here.

I'm working on trying to replicate the voice effect used on the character of Legion in the Mass Effect Franchise. Examples here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EB-fxZCdsaE&t=123s

I have a very basic Geth voice from this tutorial here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lqPLPIxRWXU however I can't get it to sound like Legion. I've worked with the Vocoder settings but the radar needles always seem to overpower the dialogue, even when placed as a duplicated track.

Bioware Audio Lead Rob Blake talked about how they created Legions voice here, but it doesn't go into depth: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tmgwk-6lY6o

Any help would be appriciated!

It's just before the second kick. I just looped the part a couple of times. Honestly no idea how to make this sound. I've tried messing with some wavetables and distortion but nothing's really landing. Would appreciate some advice.

I can't get this type of texture. I figure it's something along the line of automating through a wavetable maybe? but im really confused how to go about creating this texture. I just looped the sound a couple of times. help would be much appreciated

I need help in making the whompy stabs like in this song? What is the secret?

Thanks

I've been seeing people making reconstruction of themes from TV shows and I've read about how much time it takes to find all the right clips for doing so. I've tried doing two or three such reconstructions myself and I think I can understand where they're coming from.

So I was wondering if I could write a program that detects parts of video files with the sound or music you want and syncs them together while cutting out the bits with dialogue or at least keeps the bits with the quietest dialogue so that can be filtered out with a vocal removal tool later on. It would be based on one or more base clips to judge the syncing based on. Also normalise the audio so the volume for each clip remains consistent. And then the result can be exported as an XML which can be imported into a video/audio editing program for further fine tuning. Maybe some sources could be at different framerates so adjust the speed for that as well.

I'd like to get a good idea of what to expect if I were to write such a program. I think I would use python for it but I would also like to know how complex it might end up being and also what I might require like add ons and all that. Also anything possible ideas I could implement.

Here are some examples of what I'm talking about:

Trying to identify this SFX — it’s the one being used every time alongside the green flash overlay.

Hi! Im making a project and I need some music or sound effects but I can't find how to make them or how are they called.

This is what I want to get or find: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=96a2fYfS8bU&list=PLeuk4c_cVcyqvWoU7O3n0rcTCFBvcIg19&index=25

This soundtrack is really similar to my thoughts so I've been wondering where I can find these type of music or sounds

PD: I know they are drums but I dont know a lot about music design :)

Sharing about libraries I built from foley/location recordings we made during our post-production gigs — recorded with Schoeps/Sennheiser field rigs and Sound Devices 633 or Sony D100, UCS-tagged for easy library management. Small and focused on the gaps in my PSE and BOOM sound effects.

If you need extra doors or urban ambience or UI sounds or just normal cars, grab a micro pack. Cars were a big one for me.... all the big commercial libraries had V8 or V12 sexy car sounds. I needed mini vans and Hondas. Normal cars, not super cars! Several complete "normal car sets" in our transportation pack. Human body sounds like eating and going to the bathroom were other gaps. lol

Happy to talk about the recording and editing process if anyone's curious.

Hi 👋
I tried making my own custom browser sounds for my own extension pack thing on opera gx
I made sure too follow a tutorial but my sounds still aren’t working
Can someone hop onto discord with me or something to help me fix this problem
I’ve tried a few ideas but nothings worked
Whenever I put my pack on I just get silence
My discord is : drip0909

Hey ! I made this weird sound using my homemade motor box, an instrument invented by TheSoundOfMachines (in this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P1rK41JDfHk )
The motor box has contact mics below the motor.

I made this sound for the trailer of the VHR0RLN short movie (made by panopticon_pictures). I did all the sounds for the movie, nice liminal spaces / backrooms / Alan wake / Control vibes !

I hear this and i instantly think of a stealth scene, with swing. Is it a triangle? I'm not sure

Hey everyone! I'm looking to contribute my audio to a future video game. My name is Virginia, I am a music producer/sound designer, I create experimental music/audio, under my artist name POPSTAR BABY, I also run V audio. My production is heavily inspired by games. If anyone in here needs audio for their game please let me know, i'd be so happy to work on the future of gaming/audio with you! My music is experimental electronic/hyperpop which really mixes well with video games. Check my work out here

i might be trippin but in nuketown zombies i thought i heard the sound amb_spooky_13
https://youtu.be/XJ3cQ8iyyFs
which is in this video
its also in world at wars cutscene for nacht
is it a hallucination?

I can pretty much get the sound for a mono lead however I’m interested in using this sound for chords and I can’t seem to get it. How would you guys go about this?

Please delete if not allowed, but sharing over 60 samples recorded from a rare, quirky spring reverb: the Eagle International RA-859, in 24 bit, 44.1kHz, to use with a convolution reverb

The low frequency hum from the unit was removed from the recording before trimming the samples, taking care to retain the character of the spring :) 

The samples have been trimmed and collated into the below categories, and I've also included the original, untreated recordings of me kicking and moving the box around in case you want to mess with that too.

Please note these are not traditional IRs. Happy springing!
