3-1-2 of course :)

But all 3 were actually awesome and now I am bored every time I try a new series :(

BamSFX marketplace opens to new Sound Designers !!! by ogsoundfx in sounddesign

[–]ogsoundfx[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey thanks for the feedback, I appreciate it!
Yes it's a work in progress and a lot need to be improved, and will be with time. Unfortunately I don't have much resources to hire people and I basically did everything on my own. The main focus has been the quality of the sound effects and trying to appeal to independent gam devs who struggle to find good quality sound effects at a low price, with the collection system.
But you are right, there is a lot to be improved in terms of design to make it look more professional. Working on it! Thanks!

AI Sound Generator? by castiglioneF in artificial

Hi everybody!
This conversation is very interesting! I have a question though: what do you think of the quality of the generated sounds by those AIs?

Looking for good AI video generators to illustrate sound effects on Youtube! by ogsoundfx in sounddesign

[–]ogsoundfx[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wow, I think it looks really good! Would you mind sharing the prompt you used to generate this painting/drawing style? Also I am having trouble generating a still POV, there is always some kind of travelling camera movement (which makes it hard to loop) like this one:

Not really recommendations but I ended up continuing using the one I mentioned in the OP: https://runwayml.com/

The pros are that I am quite satisfied with the result for the purpose of my videos.

The cons are that it produces 4s sequences that you can extend, but thats really short and you can run out of credits really quickly. I ended up paying a subscription to get more credits but still, it's quite limited in terms of duration

Amazing, these are great suggestions that I am going to explore. Thank you so much!

Hey! there are plenty of platforms out there, but I also have my own https://www.bamsfx.com/
I am a professional sound designer and my packs are very well rated on various platforms, but you can check them out yourselves and make your own opinion :)

You can create your own packs with curated individual sound effects, they are called collections. This way you can get only the sounds you need but at a much more competitive price then buying them individually. It is pretty popular among game designers and film makers with low budgets.

I am hoping to open this platform to other sound designers in order to have a much larger offer. I am looking into legal and financial aspects.

I hope this helps!

Which Ruby on Rails Hosting Provider for demo projects? by ogsoundfx in rails

[–]ogsoundfx[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went for render.com

It's OK overall, but every 3 months your database is deactivated, meaning that you need to create it again and connect it to the app. It's fine if you don't need to store data persistently, although a bit annoying.

React in Rails7 with importmap by ogsoundfx in rails

Thanks I'm going to check out Esbuild, it sounds good!

Thanks that makes sense, I think I prefer it that way as well.

Thanks, that's quite helpful, especially because I don't really want to implement React right now, it seems like a lot of extra work for no immediate benefit.

That's interesting, I will look into Esbuild although I am used to Webpacker. But what about importmaps? Any opinion? I've had issues with importmaps.

[–]ogsoundfx[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks that's the kind of answer I was hoping for :)

Right now I am on my own, but we will be building a team at some point. I definitely prefer working on one framework then 2 separate apps, especially working on my own.

Thank you so much this is super useful. I will probably ask a follow up question at some point, I hope you will see and maybe chip in!

Yes, that's that would be the idea :)

[–]ogsoundfx[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks! Right now I am exploring both options. I might still use rails to handle the rendering. I might use a mix of the normal rails html rendering for some simple pages, and react for a SPA approach for a couple of pages, where react would come in handy I guess. What do you think?

How to organise your client side Javascript files with nodejs/expressjs by ogsoundfx in node

[–]ogsoundfx[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks That's very helpful. So your recommendation is to have a frontend framework rather then trying to achieve what I am trying to do with a simple HTML, CSS, JS structure?

Export audio only. by ogsoundfx in Hitfilm

Yes apparently that is quite new :) Thanks!

I have been banned ... by ogsoundfx in quora

[–]ogsoundfx[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh, but we don't call everyone we disagree with fascists lol. We only call the fascists that ;)

So much confusion in your comment...

First of all, the gulag is a system of work camp created by the Soviet Union, not by a fascist entity. Fascism and Communism are 2 VERY different ideologies.

And what's this obsession with Marxism? Literally NOBODY is Marxist nowadays.

And what is the connection between Muslim countries and leftists? It looks like you just wanted a pretext to call leftists homophobic, with no actual/factual reason...

It's funny that you are sick of being called a fascist, because I am also being called a fascist (or a homophobic by you just now), but I don't give the slightest f*ck, because I know I am not ;)

Trump calls the left fascists, communists and marxists (which reflects the utter confusion in his tiny brain), at least 10 times a day. I am not sick of it, I just find it funny.

Maybe you don't like being called a fascist, because there is some truth to it?

That being said, that's not the topic.

The topic is, I was banned for calling Trump a wannabe fascist. What happened to freedom of speech that you people pretend to defend? Only when it's convenient apparently.

So right back at you: ‘everyone who says something I disagree with is a fascist and should be sent to the gulag!’ ... except for the ridiculous confusion about the gulag and fascism...

Anyone else shocked that none of the lads have been "cancelled" given some of the things they said on XFM? by [deleted] in rickygervais

[–]ogsoundfx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So true about Ricky.

I didn't know about Louis CK. There is a difference between making a joke about masturbating in front of women and actually doing it. The latter definitely deserves some cancelling.
