This is a true gem for Mac users especially when most DAWs do not allow you to use multiple audio interfaces. This can be very useful if you have multiple audio interfaces and want to use them together for more simultaneous inputs and outputs. I am sorry about this tutorial will only apply to Macs so Windows users are out of luck. This concept works by creating an aggregate device. If you have more than one audio device, you can use them as a single device known as an “aggregate device”. With this aggregate device, you can increase your audio inputs and outputs without purchasing another multichannel audio interface. If you have a 4-channel interface and a 2-channel interface. You can combine them to use them as a single 6-channel audio interface. This is exceptionally useful as most software only allows you to select one audio interface at a time. Step 1: Open Audio MIDI Setup You can find this under Applications – Ultilities – Audio MIDI Setup. This is the application... Relative News

We have some amazing authors at Audiotuts+. Besides being incredibly talented at making and producing music, they’ve made the choice to share their knowledge with the rest of us. And that’s not an easy thing to do – they take hours out of their busy days and nights to sit down and write step-by-step tutorials so that we can learn to do what they do. We thought a lot of you might be curious to find out more about them. What do they do? What have they accomplished? What do they drink? So we’ll take some time over the next weeks and months to pull back the curtain and let you see. Today we meet West Latta, who is about to start a new tutorial series on audio in the gaming industry. What do you do professionally when you’re not writing for Audiotuts+? I’m an Audio Producer for Microsoft, working out of the Dublin, Ireland office.

Twice a month we revisit some of our reader favorite posts from throughout the history of Audiotuts+. This tutorial was first published in December 2009. Imagine the precious seconds you lose every time you take a simple action via a menu option or clicking a button on the screen. Once you memorize a set of keyboard shortcuts and make new shortcuts for tasks you find yourself doing frequently, you begin to save a lot of time. You’d be surprised how quickly those seconds add up into minutes and hours. Here’s a cheat sheet of common keyboard shortcuts you should memorize, along with a quick primer on using the Keyboard Commands manager. This is the third tutorial in a short series on helping you save time in Logic Pro 9. We’ll be covering: Screensets — arrange Logic’s windows to suit your way of working, and reuse those settings for improved workflow. Templates — you can create template sessions based on various needs for various situations — this helps you get into the creative... Relative News

Not a day goes by that I’m not grateful for my employment in the game industry. My story isn’t particularly unique, but I do feel fortunate that I’m able to make a living doing something I love. Every so often, I’ll get the question, “How can I break into the game industry?” This question usually comes from a young and aspiring musician or audio designer, though I’ve also been asked by visual artists, animators and programmers. Likewise, this question can be found all over the web in forums, video game blogs, and community websites. flickr image by farnea Truth be told, there are more resources availble for the aspiring game developer than ever before, and the market has never been more rich with opportunities. When we think of game development, perhaps we typically think of large-scale console or PC games. However, it is good to remember that there is an absolutely stunning amount of development going on for web, casual, downloadable, iPhone, Windows Phone, Android, and... Relative News
