Co-op races rule because if they have a truly unforgiving seed (like the SGDQ one) you get double the runner misery as they both spend half an hour trying to find what they need to advance

The hl alyx run is simultaneously interesting and extremely hard to watch. The camera constantly glitching around is giving me a headache

And by "fun" I mean "oh god there's so much fan noise how do I fix this without making him sound like he's screaming through a pillow".

When I heard the event was going to be done virtually, my first thought was "poor UraniumAnchor". Congrats on how it turned out: all the stuff I've watched has had good audio. There was one couch commentator that was clearly yelling into a $5 microphone but that isn't something the audio team can fix

I think I said to someone 'i wonder if they used that weird nvidia rtx tech because i can't hear the fans at all' during the event so if it really was just you with a mixer UA you do fantastic work I'd guess you weren't awake for the start of Secret of Mana then :V

Yeah you did really well with that one. I think there was a moment at the end where you (or he, or someone else) switched it to what we'd be hearing with no editing and lol yes I can see how that one was a challenge

Edit: Though now that I watch it from here it's not as bad as I remember, but also I was wearing headphones so the audio profile is probably different than my computer speakers.

WhiteHowler posted:I'm amazed that you can do that much with filtering from a remote feed. I forget exactly what wizardry we were doing for runners since they had a split feed, one mono channel for game and one for their microphone so that we could balance them differently, but still only using up two channels on the mixer. It's a little hard to tell in this picture but if you squint you might be able to see that channels 1/2 say "RTMP Game/Mic" instead of "L/R". We had some presets to swap between since we had some races. https://twitter.com/uraniumanchor/status/1297436587341619200 Runners/commentators/interviews always used channels 1-6, hosts were either 7 or 8. This usually allowed us to at least partially get people set up on unused channels for the next run/segment, since hitting the 'solo' buttons allowed you to listen to muted channels. That week was a crash course in noise gates and VEQ.

"what fan?" "exactly" "poo poo, you're hired"

In another life I was an audio op for a local TV station. A broadcast studio is usually "best case scenario" when it comes to audio inputs though -- at most, we'd have to gate out some background noise when a remote reporter was holding their microphone in the wind.

Since every GDQ must end with a lead-in to the next:quote:Out of an abundance of caution for the safety of the community, Games Done Quick has made the difficult decision to move AGDQ 2021 to an entirely online format and will not feature a live venue. Similar to SGDQ 2020, we will broadcast the event from our studio, with runners participating from the safety of their homes. The broadcast dates will remain the same, with AGDQ 2021 showcasing some of the best speedrunners in the world from January 3rd-10th, 2021.

With US cases on the rise again, I'm surprised all events weren't flagged as "Online-only until further notice or relocation to another region."
