hello people on the internet. i have an announcement. i put out a new patch for my pc remaster mod for the acclaimed action rpg, Bloodborne. it includes more upscaled textures, more baked shadows removed, and some bugs fixed! www.nexusmods.com/bloodborne/m...
Nah all it does is make a folder with everything after the "/" as the filename. I've done auto-folders before with Region names actually, so I get why this feature is there! Just not ideal in this case
😆
Oh, also FWIW Reaper will still render and auto-name tracks with invalid characters, it just changes them into underscores usually. The \ and / are the most problematic because Reaper gets confused and makes unwanted subfolders:
Funny enough, even in my more recent projects I've kept the "SEND:" tracks cuz the naming convention does automatic things within reaper for me, and I never render those tracks out on their own.
So it's not a hard and fast rule, but a good guideline!
#REAPER TIP: Do not use characters like /, \, ? or ! in your track names! Anything incompatible with Windows filenames can be a headache later on, if you wanna auto-export stems.
(seems obvious but I'm looking at an old project file and, apparently it wasn't... 🤦♂️)

Dans Star Wars Outlaws, @wilbertroget.bsky.social a dissimulé, dans son thème de Lando Calrissian, le thème trompeusement joyeux de Bespin et le motif héroïque des rebelles. Une manière de dépeindre astucieusement la dualité de Lando entre faux semblant et résistance. La musique raconte qui il est.🎵
This old ranger station seems to have held up pretty good to the Instability. Might as well rest here for the day.

❤️❤️ thanks so much, Black Eagle! Glad you enjoyed our score! 😃
Passport.mid >>> Canyon.mid, now and always 😆
(Nice arrangement!)
Heading to #MAGFest for the first time since before the pandemic! I'll be performing with Triforce Quartet and doing some panels, including a live musical-sounddesign demo with audience participation, and some other fun surprises.
#Helldivers2 fans come say hi!

Lol yup! We've known each other since we were teenagers on AOL actually 😆
A few years back we spontaneously recorded a sample library together -

The extraction theme “No Diver Left Behind” was one of the most fun pieces to write and record for #Helldivers2 ! In addition to orch, we also tracked drums from #JimBogios of #CountingCrows fame – so please enjoy this #pianoroll #gamemusic vid, now with drum session footage!
Ah, merci bcp Aurélien!!
<3 <3 aww, thanks Plague_doc!!
“The Illuminate Cult” from #Helldivers2 has some of my most nuanced musical sound design (and one of my fave endings!) I’ve ever composed for a piece of #gamemusic, so I’m excited to share a #pianoroll vid with some synth breakdowns as well!

KONTAKT TIP: You can just doubleclick most parameters and enter them numerically.
I have no idea why it's taken me TWENTY YEARS using KT to realize this, but, TIL 😆
Useful for things like setting a precise frequency for culling resonances!

Hey all! I'm available for more contract or full time sound design work starting in January. I've been working in game audio for over ten years and have a proven track record for delivering high quality audio design, and implementation on any deadline.
“Lando’s Redemption” from #StarWarsOutlaws DLC is my most melodically complex piece yet – referencing Williams’ Lando & Rebel motifs as well as @joneverist.bsky.social 's Rebel theme from Outlaws, to convey his suave veneer & grave sense of duty.
Here's a #gamemusic analysis of the themes!
Please do!! 😆
Not enough characters to say in the original post, but the point of this was to be educational, showing some tricks in the patch that anyone can use. IMO if you've got a phone and some free vst effects, you've got more than enough to design your own libraries!
Download the 120mb library here - dropbox.com/scl/fi/35d31...
Requires full version of Kontakt 6 or above. Includes a master patch of various hits, as well as tuned hits, and (my personal fave!) two pads derived from bowed metals.
Years ago, I did an impromptu field recording at Gasworks Park, striking and bowing large metals in this defunct power plant. Finally edited it into a FREE sample library! (requires full version of #Kontakt 6)
