And the Grand Prize Winner is…

January 1, 2017 by Shaun Farley

When we designed this event, we wanted to reward people for their participation and involvement in the little arm of the community that is Designing Sound Exchange. We also generally kept the various methods we used to select winners secret until we were no longer using them. We wanted people to participate in a natural manner, not try to game the system. It was early in the … [Read more...]

We've already mentioned our grand prize, but we wanted to make sure no one missed the fact that we'll be giving away a MASSIVE sound effects library at the end of this month.

A Second Look at the Hybrid Library

December 5, 2013 by Shaun Farley

Earlier this year, I reviewed the Hybrid Library from Pro Sound Effects. Overall, it was a fairly positive review. While I was impressed with the library, I also pointed out some of its rough edges. The primary focus of the review was on the library's metadata and how it would affect work-flow. I won't go into heavy detail on the process here, as you can simply lick on the link … [Read more...]

Combating Noise in Plug-in Chains

November 22, 2013 by Shaun Farley

This article is going to be a little less template, and a little more workflow. We all have our favorite plug-ins. We probably also all have plug-ins we'd love to use, but run into limitations that keep us from pulling them out of the tool box. For instance, I have a couple of plug-ins from Waves that can add some really cool sonic character when I'm designing a sound, but also … [Read more...]

The Hybrid Library Returns at Pro Sound Effects

They've dotted their i's and crossed their t's, and are now placing the library up for sale again. Between now and December 31st, … [Read more...]
