Star Wars - The Old Republic: Deceived (Sound Redux)

Excellent work. Sabers sounded awesome. Good attention to details in the various scenes.

massive massive kudo's bud! as an electronic music producer who wishes to go into sound fx work for games i understand the process you went through to do this and it must have been serious craic altogether :) if you ever find any time to give some tips on how you built these sound fx, particularly the lightsaber fx i would be very very grateful. i have access to thor and have good knowledge of FM, subtractive and additive synthesis. But the thing that fascinates me most is your layering. 10/10

any chance of you uploading the sound files? great job.

[acroninja21]

Really awesome... I love the original trailer and this is a really nice more "real" alternative.

[clankm]

Great job! However I'm still not totally convinced you made all those lightsaber sounds. Maybe some proof that you did it because I've herd some of those bits from a lightsaber download package online. I know it's still a lot of work, I'm not saying that. But some reassurance on the saber sounds would make it worth salt. So what do you say, Chris?

just wondering, why ableton live? just a favourite program?

[analogmad]

I prefer Nuendo for post editing. However after using Ableton for the Tron Legacy trailer I was sold on it, and have been using it quite a bit for sound design/picture work. The interface is really simple to get around in.. timestretching is incredible. Bundled plugins are really good. Also really enjoy the performance. That being said.. i really hope that Ableton adds some additional post production support in the future. Nudging events would be my first request.

[torsenstarrow]

i've heard nuendo is killer for scoring and all that. Does ableton have a video track? Do you have all the instruments (i.e. operator etc)?

[torsenstarrow]

this is AMAZING. I can't believe you did all that with ableton /reason and some audio work! Well done.

[h1a1l1l1o]

Wow that sound design is better than the orginal!

Really love it!

I wonder how you did them.

How did you come to sound fx and how can I start with that stuff?

I wanna buy a cheap syntheziser, but I have no idea if I should buy a fm or am synth or a virtual like zebra.

could you give me tip, what the best synth for a beginner would be and how I could learn doing sound effects easily?

Thank you! Sorry for the lack of response. The SFX are a combination of library and original source sound that I created using several VST packages and plugin suites. I used a combination of reason's thor synthesizer and reaktors Skrewell.

Check out Synplant. from Sonic Charge. Which is really inexpensive and actually quite simple to program. Completely different approach to sound, which I find brilliant. Also reason comes with some really great simple synths that do the job

Cheers

Again this is top notch work Analogmad: the sounds are exquisite...
