The Art of Sound Design

Last night while working on the OST for the upcoming short film The Tent, I got sucked into ROLI's Equator 2. Many of the samples are great out-of-the-box, but the sonic ecosystem we're developing demanded some unique play techniques to tell the nuanced story. Beyond bending pitch, I was manipulating the aftertouch and release parameters of my ROLI LUMI to delicately play synth textures to match the story on screen in realtime.

The art of sound design is more than picking the right (or wrong) instruments, it's the nuanced performance, paired with the proper technology that can open up new sonic palettes to be developed and stories to be better told. Excited for you all to hear this one.
