Marshall man you're a huge inspiration for someone getting into SFX. whenever I feel unable to create something I peep a waveform and always get re-motivated
I love that regardless of what part of sound design I am looking into, the video always manages to include a tiger chuff. Great video
This is incredible. I learned A LOT just from 30 minutes of content. Love this. Keep it coming!!
Currently writing a Sci-FI audiodrama, so watching those this videos is very helpful to help generate some ideas. Thank you!
Great job👌🏾 on the detail to the lowSub” as a base! Glad you noticed the Xwing Fighter was a right at you fly by and you Scored it as a Quick pass and not a long one.
This was so good. I have wanted to see something like this for ages!
This is one hell of a great tutorial! These concepts are not readily taught so I'm glad I found this channel - liked and subscribed - cheeers!
PSFX + Marshall?? Christmas came early

Great re-design! great to hear how your mental workflow builds to construct the sound track to the sequence :D
Who knew Eric Forman grew up to be a Sound designer! Thanks for the vid by the way, good stuff.
Thank you Marshall - This is so inspiring. Nicely Done - congratulations
This is AWESOME! More of this sort of content please :-)
That autopan at 8:04 is really awesome 😁

Thank you so much for the tutorial
Thank You. Tweeted and Discorded to my friends as well.
Thank you a lot for the content! I use Ableton Live for a quite long time but didn't know some of the technics you have used. There is so much work in such a small scene. I'm curious how much of human-hours goes for one movie
Love it!!!
Thanks for your video
Damn homie. Hard to come by a genuinely talented sound designer on KZread

SFX is much more more more subjective than Music, one of these sounds may could be better in my own aesthetic, but i cant say they arent good designers

omg so informative, thanks.
As someone who does, or tries to do, audio post production on Logic, I'm glad to see someone at this level working on 'no Pro Tools' ;) Thanks a lot! Great tutorial :)

Genuinely curious, why do you like Logic for audio post production instead of ProTools?

@@jadedickey3261 because I got really pissed off when PT11 came out. I quit on it and came back to Logic and so far I've managed to get by. Now, that I mean to find remote work I believe it's going to be inevitable to get PT... Technically, the only thing I've always missed from PT10 it's being able to do the audio editing on the arrange window with no need for the audio editor. Everything else does the job perfectly well at this level. After watching the video I thought about for Live ;) Best regards!
Nice custom OTT :D
Im a music producer but this is some cool stuff!! thank you!!
Garnt got me here.. so glad he did.
Yes love this video
very cool
loved this, thanks so much! just out of curiosity, if this were for a film or tv show, how would you deliver it to the mixer? Bounce each group and export? Do you ever use rewire and print directly into a Pro Tools session? Just curious about your workflow because I am a huge Ableton fan and would far rather sound design in Ableton, but have only ever used Pro Tools for post audio stuff. Although it sounds like you mainly sound design for games and I imagine the workflow is quite different... anyways, thanks again!
Nice.
What’s the keyboard shortcut at 5:36? Didn’t know you could transpose audio clips in session view without going into clip view 🤦🏻
Why do you turn the tracks mono?
how can I get that sample editing feature in reaper? especially the preserve transient one. I've been using media item properties for some times and I would like to use some sliders and knobs to edit my sound.
That was awesome. I'll be using more animals now🤔. But it kinda sucks that Search isn't yet available on Windows

The demo for Search was cool when I tried it, back when it came out. I'm hoping it develops. Is Search still at 1.0?

Looks like Ableton
Ableton for Souns Design???? Oh mama..never see it!!
Ah man. The part I was most interested in (the engine sound) was just a pre-designed sound XD Pitty.
28:24 thank me later
So, saw that price tag and, well, that's a no from me, chief.
Young Man I still believe you are light years ahead of most of us; therefore, you teach at that level, not at most of us level. You often skip a lot. you forget B, C, and D then go to E. This is not a compliment. you are very talented, but you can't teach. I knew a black friend that was like you. he worked with Quency Jones for a while. he knew he could not teach but he was VERY talented. I continue to watch you video hope you teach something I can follow but skip a lot as to how you get to point B then you go one to C. WHEW!
This is really cool. Just one note to all sound designers: please stop it with the "cool" tremolo effect, it's literally everywhere there's an engine or a weapon and it feels so gimmicky. Ugh.

Beat me to it. I wouldn't have put that in. If I'm right Ben Burtt popularised it with the Pod Racers in episode 1. Completley over used now though.
