Last month we ran a competition to win one of three copies of the Sonnox Envolution plug-in. We are pleased to announce that the winners are João Almeidia, Tim LaRiviere and Steve Harrison.
João Almeidia
Despite having still little experience in the sound world, I was able to work for a few years in Portugal in many different areas, ranging from sound engineering, location sound recording and sound design to name a few. Then in October 2015, I moved to Canada to study and develop my skills in sound design.
When I heard about and saw the videos of Sonnox's Envolution plug-in, I was amazed by the possibilities that this plug-in offered due to its independent and surgical tweaking possibility on transients and sustain. I can't wait to start designing SFX with it!
Tim LaRiviere
Like so many audio pros, I started out as a college trained, working musician in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada with one exception, I decided after finishing my college education to go back for a secondary diploma in music production and recording. With two college diplomas in hand, I toured throughout Canada and parts of the US for several years with many different bands.
With the rock star fantasy fading, I decided to pursue other avenues of my craft working in broadcast audio for local television and mobile trucks, as well as branching out to video game audio and audio design, whilst still recording original music in every spare moment possible.
With the pure quality of all Sonnox plug-ins, I intend to use the Envolution plug-in for all facets of my work. But I think in particular, this will be very useful in the video game / audio design field for bending transients to a surreal place. Thanks so much to Sonnox and to Pro Tools Experts for this amazing opportunity! I look forward to pushing this new plug-in to it’s limits
