Surprised this still exists (teletekst-data.nos.nl/webplus?p=10...).
This used to be broadcast in TV signals (see top of b&w image) and accessible via the TV remote.
The simplicity and straightforward language used are calming even if it felt slow back then.

Every audiophile needs to invest in an “umschalter 2000” from @whiteseastudio and save themselves a ton of money.
Then again one could also buy a titanium oxygen-free polarised quantum audio cable instead. To really make the soundstage shine.

For #gameaudio and #sounddesign the x/y pad in Hourglass was a brilliant sculpting tool.
More granular vst's exist today, yet Hourglass is still useful for experiments, looping textures and source creation like shown below.

Absolutely brilliant are those expressive little jewels of instrumentation and that slightly detuned synth swimming in and out of the reverb. What a voice too.

This looks close to how I remember seeing these films (bright as the sun) and the sound design is also so bold and in your face - the music has that analogue wobble to it.
Watching evokes a strong emotional reaction (of nostalgia) too.
An amazing achievement.

The strangest group I’ve ever played Elden Ring with - The Invader guided us to the next bonfires and the hunter was along for the ride.
Apparently we can all get along just fine!

Also it delights me when people do find The Signal From Tölva, because approximately 8.2 billion people missed it so far. And it's a lovely game that we poured a staggering amount of effort into.

Comparing FabFilter4 to spectral EQ favourtie: DSEQ by TBProAudio.
First thing that stood out is how good both are.
Fabfilter also seemed to have a somewhat collapsed width during limited A/B testing.
The warm filter is beautiful and rich, love the harmonics!
And the workflow is a dream.

Electromagnetic Oscillators
I thought it interesting to show an #electromagnetic #microphone feeding into a #synthesizer to create #soundscapes.
It mutates the frequency of the oscillators based on what it is picking up. This interplay results in unexpected new timbres.
