Night Rider is just such an incredibly satisfying filter for anything with rhythm and has been a pretty amazing tool for creating UI source material! #modularsynth06 May 2026 03:00 +0000at://did:plc:pgpx5bmfsjx2irepph7occz7/app.bsky.feed.post/3ml5pjkxjis2shttps://bsky.app/profile/bolttracks.bsky.social/post/3laxjygprz22bI still am so incredibly humbled by this experience and can’t believe I actually got to do it.

This talk will showcase a bunch of features hidden in plain sight, workflow accelerators, and extensions that'll make you go "woah". https://bolttracks.com/im-giving-a-talk-at-aircon-2026/30 Apr 2026 20:12 +0000at://did:plc:pgpx5bmfsjx2irepph7occz7/app.bsky.feed.post/3mkqgensb3y26https://bsky.app/profile/bolttracks.bsky.social/post/3mk3wrdnlhc26I'll be giving a talk on Tuesday about how implementation shapes the way we design audio in projects of any size. It'll feature some thought exercises that will help you set a clear vision for projects of any scale and we'll take a little detour into what how I pivoted into game audio later in life. https://www.meetup.com/bostongamedev/events/314295325/22 Apr 2026 16:39 +0000at://did:plc:pgpx5bmfsjx2irepph7occz7/app.bsky.feed.post/3mk3wrdnlhc26https://bsky.app/profile/bolttracks.bsky.social/post/3mjxledwpls2rHuge thanks to the lovely folks at #AirWiggles for nominating my humble Wwise Reel for the Audio Creation of the Year award 🥹🥹 #gameaudio #sounddesign20 Apr 2026 23:05 +0000at://did:plc:pgpx5bmfsjx2irepph7occz7/app.bsky.feed.post/3mjxledwpls2rhttps://bsky.app/profile/bolttracks.bsky.social/post/3mjmkqldqas27I love that if you make a feed for just the term “Game Audio” it’s like 80% people with OBS issues trying to stream.16 Apr 2026 13:54 +0000at://did:plc:pgpx5bmfsjx2irepph7occz7/app.bsky.feed.post/3mjmkqldqas27https://bsky.app/profile/bolttracks.bsky.social/post/3mj3sasfgik2vCan’t wait to blow your minds with rapid-fire round of things you can do in REAPER that range from “I didn’t know I needed this” to complete workflow transformation at Airwiggles AirCon 2026, the #1 online conference for anyone crafting audio for media 👾 airwiggles.com09 Apr 2026 21:53 +0000at://did:plc:pgpx5bmfsjx2irepph7occz7/app.bsky.feed.post/3mj3sasfgik2vhttps://bsky.app/profile/bolttracks.bsky.social/post/3mdo7bp43c22kNew year, new game audio implementation reel!
