Game Sound Design Glossary

GSD Glossary

Our game audio glossary has all the sound terms you have been wondering about. Game audio can be confusing enough without having to deal with a new technical language. We are constantly updating the database with new terms that relate to not only game audio but game developer terms as well.

Boom Assault Weapons Sound Effect Pack Review assault-weapons-sound-effects

My other Zoom H4 travels the world with a field sound recordist, Joe, who has used it in Sudan, Kenya, Uganda, all over the United States, France, and several other European and African countries.
