Despite that challenge, he still made a career of it! So many game assets are mono anyway, and things like ambient beds in stereo or quad would be relatively easy enough to approximate (you can use meters to help as well). All in all, there are always multiple people in an audio department listening to the game anyway – I’m sure that any issue that could crop up due to that impairment could be corrected quite easily.

Anyway, would having a hearing impairment limit any chances of working as an audio designer? Specifically being totally deaf in the one ear, but the other one functioning 100% normally? Obviously this limits hearing stereo or surround sound in its entirety.

Thanks for the great articles!
