Only 4 weeks to go until this year's conference!! Last year we sold out, and this year the numbers are looking good already, so if you're thinking of coming along, then you may want to get you ticket sooner rather than later... We'd hate for you to miss out!

Mulling over a MacBook Air for personal projects/everyday use. Anyone using one for #GameAudio #GameDev? I have a work PC for my day job but need something for stuff on the side. Main uses would be smaller Unity projects and Reaper.

I want to learn more about more advanced dynamic music setups in FMOD to make it easier for me to collaborate with composers. So far I found this great video by @mariehavemann.bsky.social, but curious if people have other recommendations? #gameaudio

Out of 90418 files in my library, 14310 still need a UCS CatID 😅 I'm on a mission to sort through it though. Chipping away a few hundred a day before the work day starts.
