  • Love the breadth

    Coming to this podcast from the perspective of an exhibitor, I’m enjoying the breadth of topics. From the depth of discussion about films that we show in-cinema, through to random practical experiences like recording roller-coasters; there’s something for everyone.

    Thanks for the production effort (and to all those who volunteer to mix); keep up the great work!

  • A new favourite!

    Having a passion for indie film and creating my own projects, I came across the tonebenders podcast and have hugely enjoyed listening. They educate and entertain at the same time, they speak to some of the best people in the industry and glean insight that’s impossible to get from books.

    Highly worth subscribing to if you interested in sound design, game audio, indie film audio, sound post and so many more fields.

    Thank you to all involved.
