A reminder that if you are curious about the gear used to make your favorite OSTs, you can find (most of the time) the studio and they publicly list their gear, plugin list, accommodated instrument section sizes, studio size on their website.

I've been doing test mixes with this thing for a couple days now.

I think I finally understand why some people prefer knobs to parametric.

Of course they all have their purposes.

I finally beat Soul Reaver after all these years of my family owning it.

friggin amazing game, writing, design, music!

There are few games where the voice acting actually gives me chills. And that main theme is SO GOOD!
