I am working on my first game titled Black Mass.

It’s a 2D RPG about a young girl who falls down a rabbit hole to hell.

This is my first time working in Unity and this is a week of progress so far. I hope to use tumblr and twitter as my game dev diary :)

Just a simple before-after GIF of the sketch and the finished product for the shipwreck I worked on today. Took me slightly less time (about forty minutes), than the first large asset despite the fact this is just as large as the other asset, if not a little larger.

Finding The Right Microphone & Preamp Combination

When entering the world of recording, the combinations of microphone, preamp, compressor, and equalizers are pretty much endless. With that in mind, I’m going to be explaining a little bit about microphones and preamps in the $500 to $2000 budget range.

When you hit about $1000 for any microphone it’s going to sound great, but at that point it’s mostly about sound preference. In my setup, I chose to go with an AKG C414 XLS (left image) because it has a very balanced sound. In my opinion, it’s not too bright or too dark. It sounds just right, to me. Some people say it has a very flat sound but again, everyone has a different preference when it comes to their sound. Most people go with a Neumann TLM 103 for its nice bright sound and others may go for something very dark like the Mojave MA-200.

A good microphone is nothing without a decent preamp. The Focusrite ISA One (right image) has a very clean signal and it’s only about $500. I love this thing, it has a great clean sound with no distortion. I haven't really seen it in any of the recording studios I’ve been to, most places have some kind of Blue or Neumann mic hooked up to an Avalon or Solid State Logic. You can’t go wrong with Avalon’s beautiful warm sound but every studio has it.

So the choice is up to you, do you want the same sound as every other studio or do you want something unique and different? Why not try hooking up a Shure KSM 44 to a Neve 5017? How many other people have that same set up? Nobody knows, but it probably sounds amazing!
