Name something more exciting than a cool, crispy, custom Project Logical Editor preset. If you've ever wanted to rename all of the tracks inside a selected folder based on search criteria... well... sto.sh/2026/09/18/p... #nuendo

Project Logical Editor Rename Preset

One of the very neat, and likely under-utilized features in Nuendo is the Project Logical Editor. I say under-utilized because I know I sure don’t use it enough. It can make mundane, complex…

Today, as I was waiting around on foley to arrive I decided to send pure tones into Byome and see what I could come up with. This particular one could be nice source material for a sci-fi vehicle, but it's amazing the amount of variety you can get from a plain old pure signal! #sounddesign

I've found myself frequently using my earliest recordings for a current project. ~16 years ago my mom got me a Zoom H4n and the first stuff I recorded was metal vent pipe scrapes. It's amazing how clearly I remember recording them and how useful they still are. Record stuff! You won't regret it :D

I came across a pile driver a long time ago and recorded it. Then I forgot I recorded it. Then I remembered. Now you can have my pile driver sound effects as long as you promise to use them in something cool. sto.sh/2026/03/28/p...

Just released a new #soundeffectslibrary I think you'll find very useful! Traffic Jam is a collection of angry & desperate honking sounds in massive urban gridlock. 🚗🚛🚕🛻 Each location comes with different energy levels of rage and useful embedded markers 🤠 collectedtransients.com/product/traf...

Stosh Tuszynski @sto.sh · 21/01/2026

Built a fast way to name 1,000,000,000 markers efficiently. This is for my particular case of preexisting markers but I'm sure it could be adapted for adding named markers during playback as well. #reaper #streamdeck

2025 was a trying year for the post sound industry. It was also a trying year for this Euphonix MC Mix. 🎚️ I had a little too much fun writing the library description on this one. Grab for FREE for a limited time: collectedtransients.com/product/fade... #sounddesign #soundeffects

Going through ~14 hours of Chicago traffic jam recording. So far this truck is the winner. 24 seconds of uninterrupted rage honk. The result of closing four bridges, half of an expressway, and bringing the feeder ramp down to one lane - all at once. Wonderful construction planning. Great honks 😄

Remember RSS readers? I was inspired a while back by @techconnectify.bsky.social to limit my own algorithm-based feeds. Easy enough on YouTube, but recently remembered I can "subscribe" to my favorite News/Blogs/Anything with RSS! Any favorite RSS readers? Currently using "Feeder" on Android.

This siren bested me last time when I recorded it. Actually I bested myself by somehow accidentally recording at 48khz. But NOT TODAY. Today I came 192kHz/32bit ready to both capture ultrasonics and not worry about gain. #fieldrecording #warningsiren #soundeffects

I made a pitch flattener VST3/AU, great for turning dopplered sirens, screams, or animal cries into pitch-locked, high-energy sci-fi source. Weird, glitchy, artefacty fun. Free AU/VST3 (Mac/Win). Uses Rubber Band + FFT. 👉 github.com/samueljustic...

Re-watched The Neverending Story for the first time since childhood and it still hits! Had no idea Giorgio Moroder composed the score until now, but it makes complete sense. Also first time hearing it in surround, which was nice! Assuming it was a remaster... whoever did it wasn't afraid to use lfe!

Sometimes, I can get stuck in a very regimented/self limiting mindset while recording #soundeffects. A #fieldrecording project with @atlassound.bsky.social helped break me out of that recently. Also, becoming a guy who carries a bag around... I now always have a recorder on me, which has helped!

I wrote a little tool a while back to automatically create/name a folder/subfolder structure for my work's post production projects, but it also works for field recording sessions along with a million other things, so I thought I'd share it! Sorry for all the blurring 😆 More in video description!

The PS Plus backlog continues with Abzû (@giantsquidstudios.com) If there was a polar opposite of the last game I played (Death's Door), Abzû is it. What a relaxing and beautiful shift. A nice story/message with zero dialog and chill vibes only. Recommended.

Week 2 of me becoming a regular at the Puerto Rican restaurant down the street. Café con Leche, Lechón, Arroz Amarillo, & Habichuelas Guisadas. I was recognized. I ordered the Café incorrectly and we laughed about it. Also I found out the place has been around for 75 years!

So freaking cool to hear how and talented designers are using #collectedtransients in their #sounddesign Hear from Robbie Stambler, Dillon Bennett, @ghaddad.bsky.social, Gurwal Coïc-Gallas and Juan Uribe. If you use an indie library in something fun, let the creator know. It'll make their day.

Continuing my PSPlus backlog with Death's Door (Acid Nerve) @autotwitch.bsky.social Wow! I haven't been challenged by a game like that in a while. The fact I still wanted to beat it despite the difficulty speaks to the experience! Highly recommend. Really enjoying trying all these new-to-me titles.

I'm starting a monster of a backlog of PS Plus games that I've remembered to grab for free over the years. If I play it and know right away it's not my jam, I delete it. If I dig it at all, I'll at least attempt to play it through. First up: Everyone's Gone to the Rapture @thechineseroom.co.uk ...
