Red Mesa Rider, Scene 1

Thank you! Experimenting with some new techniques, so I'm glad it sounded good to your practiced ears. :D

Did you do a bit of panning of the vocals?

I did, but I'm also experimenting with some plugins to try to achieve a more 3D-type sound. It's not truly 3D, but simulates a sort of binaural experience. It doesn't nail it, but I do like the effect. More noticeable with headphones.

Cool! I could definitely hear a wider spread of the voices and there was a noticeable sense of the space of the room to my ears. It sounds really good!

The other goal I have with this project is to worker harder to let it "breathe." I tend to rush the pacing at times, because I am sometimes uncomfortable with pauses, haha--but I want this one to take its time, at least in these types of scenes/interactions. People don't speak rapid-fire in real life, and I'd like to reflect that more with this one.

Yeah, that's tough to do sometimes but it can really help things feel realistic and genuine when done well.
