Handheld Recorder Shootout: Roland R-07 and Sony M10

Handheld Recorder Shootout: Roland R-07 and Sony M10

I like many, was saddened when it came to light that the Sony M10 handheld recorder was being discontinued. The incredibly portable machine has decent mics, batteries for days, and a formfactor that allows it to be carried almost anywhere. In the year or two since it's discontinuation, sound professionals have been waiting and wondering if there was a successor. When Roland … [Read more...]

Instamic Pro — First Impressions

This time around I decided to do something different: instead of an article, I’ve created a video to better demonstrate a few of my experiences with the Instamic Pro so far. While there will be a full review of it, I thought it would be noteworthy to talk to you about some observations. … [Read more...]

Hilarity in Unexpected Places

Hilarity in Unexpected Places

Let the Libraries Laugh! Curating and organizing libraries is a part of this discipline that I love. Previewing, testing, merging into databases, updating master caches, and of course, designing. Libraries are just...fun. For this month’s theme I wanted to embrace that wilier side of this more clerical end of our work. I always like to stumble across sounds that take me by … [Read more...]

Sony ICD-SX2000 review

Sony ICD-SX2000 review

  Audible tears were heard slowly rolling down sound designer’s cheeks when Sony discontinued both their M10 and D50 field recording models recently. They were affordable recorders with built-in mics that also offered plug-in power for attaching microphones with an 1/8” connection or a preamp for XLR mics. The recorders were well regarded for their small footprint, … [Read more...]

BaseHead 4.x Review and Dev Q/A

Sound library software isn't a particularly sexy category of product. They don't direclty improve the sound of your work and they often look very utilitarian,  but for professionals, they are an indispensable tool that saves time by making your pallet of sounds more immediately accessible and navigable. In that spirit, I'm abandoning convention and to save YOU time as you read … [Read more...]

Review : Generative 2 & Feedback 2

Review : Generative 2 & Feedback 2

Siren Audio recently released version 2 of their critically acclaimed audio software tools, Feedback and Generative. Originally a part of the Lorelei Suite which they released back in 2011, these stand-alone applications are developed using Max/MSP and give the user a chance to create drones and evolving audio textures very easily. In this review, I will be using audio and … [Read more...]

Review: Dehumaniser

Review: Dehumaniser

While it has been out for a while now, I finally got my hands on a review copy of Dehumaniser from Krotos LTD. Dehumaniser has gotten a good bit of buzz in the professional sound design community and rightly so. It is a rock-solid solution for quick and easy monster voices. Dehumaniser is “a software standalone vocal processor that allows the production of creature / monster … [Read more...]
