Putting the final touches on before release. Want to give it a spin? Let us know! #GameAudio #UnrealEngine5 #ue5

One free tool opens a portal to some of the most bleeding-edge synthesis and effects tools out there. Let's break it down -- what's there for creators, but also why pretty much everyone will want to grab this, whether they patch or not.

Hey #gameaudio, a new version of the hvcc compiler just got released and now includes an FMOD plugin generator 👀🔊

Today we release HVCC v0.14.0! Some of the features are a new FMOD generator by @michaelhartung.bsky.social - Audio input for Webassembly builds - and compatibility for libDaisy 8.x! Read our release notes here: github.com/Wasted-Audio... #puredata #plugdata #compiled #fmod #libdaisy #webassembly

#GameAudio Faust2wwise compiler is ready for creating custom plugins in @audiokinetic.bsky.social #Wwise with Faust 🔥 github.com/grame-cncm/f... #GameDev soon I'll be creating tutorials for setting up and start doing #PluginDevelopment with crazy #AudioProgramming ideas

#godot 👀

My buddy Stephen here is explaining in great detail how #Snowdrop handles level transitions seamlessly for #starwarsoutlaws - and you get to see a bit of our tooling too 😍 www.youtube.com/watch?v=YyvS...

Little after work #maxmsp doodle to wind down.

Made a nice page for all my demoscene favorites. mrdoob.com/demoscene/

a great post by @mikejudge.bsky.social where he put together secondary metrics on AI coding that equate to travolta-coat.gif mikelovesrobots.substack.com/p/wheres-the...

Did you know your MacBook has a sensor that knows the exact angle of the screen hinge? It’s not exposed as a public API, but I figured out a way to read it and make it sound like an old wooden door.

I just got this little Omnichord flavoured instrument and ohhhh it is unspeakably beautiful 😭

World partition in #Unreal is really cool. Until you accidentally try to undo a property change on sth. using CTRL-Z and the editor stalls and bombards your with progress bars of resaving packages or whatnot for 5min straight.

I rewrote my #unrealengine tracker in raw C++ so it’s a 3.5 megabyte exe instead of a 35GB engine/project. This is a core player engine with a Win32 wrapper and a UE plugin wrapper. Testing with my hybrid FM/phase distortion synth and waveform blending LFO, and my cheesy-but-cheap reverb algo

Had a 4h train ride today and got the plugdata fmod export working. Needs some clean-up, polish around the UI logic and optionally copy the plugins to the fmod/game project directories. soon™️ #gameaudio #plugdata #fmod #dsp

Had a first look into setting up custom audio effects via #godot #gdextension over the weekend. Anyone know why the function signatures of the bindings generated from godot-cpp might diverge from the engine source for the same version?

One clear sign of not having taken any vacation from work this year so far, is getting Vitamin D deficiency depression in the middle of August 😵‍💫.

Lets see if I can get the #fmod plugin export integrated into #plugdata directly 👀 Would be easier if the FMOD SDK were not behind a login, so will require additional steps of providing a path to it etc.. #hvcc #gameaudio

Follow-up on yesterdays post about custom #wwise effects - with audio examples! 🧵 #audiokinetic #gamedev #gameaudio

I added a section of DSP resources, including blogs/posts, textbooks (& free online ones!) code snippets, and more to the “Links” page in my personal wiki/digital garden! Hopefully it can be helpful to someone: reillyspitzfaden.com/wiki/links/ #DSP #Audio #Programming #SoundDesign #IndieWeb

Today we merged the work of @michaelhartung.bsky.social into the develop branch of the Heavy Compiler. Please help us test this new feature for custom effect and instrument plugins for @fmodstudio.bsky.social using #puredata ! wasted-audio.github.io/hvcc/docs/03... #FMODstudio #hvcc #gameaudio

Putting all the visual pieces together into a scripted sequence using MIDI to toggle each layer/effect on/off. #playdate Will be perfectly synced to the soundtrack.

Some progress on my current self study side quest, or distraction rather from putting up with DSP. My smol C/SDL3 rasterizer can now load obj files. I am following along a great course by @pikuma.com Implemented this ahead of watching the course material. Lets find out what I could do differently.

I finally have cross-platform (Linux/Mac/Win) release files for my reverb plugin! I wrote today about setting up a CMake build process (instead of Projucer/Xcode) and using GitHub actions to compile each version: reillyspitzfaden.com/posts/2025/0... #JUCE #Audio #MusicProduction #Programming

I've recently setup a mastodon account and will focus what little energy I have to put up with social media over there. This place has the same fate as all the other platforms hardwired in, despite it "feeling" a bit different. mastodon.gamedev.place/@michaelhart...

The "Word" icon in the sidebar of Outlook opens the web version instead of the locally installed app. You really can't make this shit up. I know they're probably more or less the same thing at this point but why? Slowly reaching the point where I would put up with Linux again because it's less bad.

HEY SEVERAL PUBLISHERS, PICK UP ROMERO GAMES' PROJECT AND THE ENTIRE INDUSTRY WILL LIKE YOU. MAYBE SOME YOUTUBER WILL MAKE A DOCUMENTARY ABOUT HOW YOU SAVED ONE OF HIS FAVORITE STUDIOS. JUST SAYING.

Did the math and making that hvcc fmod generator was about 16h of work. Spread over sth like 8weeks 😬 (work and dad duties eat most of my time these days). I guess that‘s my ambitions of making a game on hold for a while. Better focus on more short term achievable things instead 😅.

I implemented my own VOX ADPCM (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dialogi...) encoder and decoder in Rust! The purpose is to apply the sound quality of a codec to a sample—in this case, it's a 4-bit telecommunications algorithm that sounds fizzy and crackly #Programming #Coding #Developer #Rust #Audio

Hey #gameaudio remember hvcc by enzien audio back in the day? The tool that let you create C/C++ code for Unity/Wwise/DAW plugins from PD patches 😎 I'm currently finishing up a PR that adds a FMOD generator. You can read more about it on my badly written blog 😅 hartung.studio/blog/2025-07...

Moving 2.5k assets in the FMOD asset bin to a different folder in a project that's using perforce just because of file structure OCD wasn't the brightest idea on a Saturday. #gameaudio

Worth a watch: Head of Signal, Meredith Whittaker, on so-called "agentic AI" and the difference between how it's described in the marketing and what access and control it would actually require to work as advertised.

Very low carbon intensity in the neighbourhood this morning. Pretty much all wind and nuclear. This is how my CI 'instrument' hears it. @terravolt-uk.bsky.social @neso-energy.bsky.social

Another beautiful #soundsculpture by Eirik Brandal youtu.be/hS1PW3Og6_g?...

Little #maxmsp granular doodle using only mc objects.

#MayGame now has sound effects! Since I'm aiming for a Game Boy aesthetic, all sfx were made using LSDJ (audio software for the Game Boy). Still a work in progress but I'm especially happy with the jump and whistle sounds so far. #sounddesign #gameaudio #gamedev #indiedev #indiegamedev #solodev

Constantly amazed how much overlap there is between graphics and audio. Watched Freyas brilliant talk on quaternions we‘re she explains how imaginary numbers are used for rotation (hello DSP). And TIL that Bresenhams Line Algorithm can be used to generate Euclidean Rhythms.

..hold on in the recent unreal coordinate system switch, did.. did they straight up, change the *basis* to {Z,X,Y} ?? are vector3 tuples now in {Z,X,Y} order? are vector2 tuples now using a {Z,X} basis?? 😭

🔊😌 Take a break and enjoy these relaxing, satisfying sounds from MakeRoom, @kenney.nl's upcoming room decoration and furniture creation game.

Streamers can't play music in the background as they talk, can't play games with licensed soundtracks turned on, can't even show a trailer with the sound on without fear but sure let's let Sam altman take everything for free

Silly hand gesture-controlled over-the-top sci-fi noises. www.youtube.com/watch?v=k0lw...

Hello everyone! i've had the pleasure to be testing picoCAD 2 along with some other talented artists for @johanpeitz.com and i'm now allowed to share the models i've been making so here's Ana biotic rifle from overwatch 2 made entirely in picoCAD2 #lowpoly #picocad #OW2 #picoCAD2 lospec.com/i/1ll8

I had the absolute pleasure of contributing some sound design to Saint’s gorgeous game! Please wishlist it immediately. 👇👇👇

I've been making video games in some form for 20 years, so I wrote an article about my process - and why I don't use an engine. noelberry.ca/posts/making...

This is some lovely and inspiring #maxmsp #RBNO work. youtube.com/watch?v=neFx...
