Great interview!
You're doing great and very important work! Good sound design really gives reality to the visuals!
question:
Jose, in which space sims do you like sound design more (Freespace, Freelancer, Wing Commander, any Star Wars sims if played)?
What sounds do you like to synthesize more, natural or technological?
Great interview. Really detailed explanation of an element of the game I was particularly concerned about. Convinces me entirely.
I tried but David censored me...

Aha so you're the amateur in the house... Do you have to ask permission to use the Hot water tap in the kitchen or have you graduated further?
Amateur? Pssh. Whistleblower more like. We're all basically monkeys in masks. Ashley's good at photomanipulation, just blurs away the fur and comps in a desk etc.Aha so you're the amateur in the house...

Ben,
I just wanted to say that I have been a fan of your chosen role since I first saw your signature!

Me too, Ian, but unfortunately you can't believe everything you see. It's another FD conspiracy.
Speaking of conspiracies, I just found this,
FD Conspiracy Proved!
Yes, it's a Bed & Breakfast in Cambridge.
BUT it's at number 51 in the Cambridge area.
Area. 51. Cambridge.
OMG this is so totally a blindingly obvious piece of evidence that FD are totally up to their necks in totally conspiratorial type things.

Great interview,
I've always been interested in sound in games (and film), I don't think that overlooked is a fair assessment, more that it's acknowledged at a subliminal level. If the sound (and music) is right, it adds so much to the experience, without me even realising it.
I think we're in good hands, thank you Jose

I love the fact that there's not just one artificial noise generator, but two. And one of them can pick up the sound of pulsars! That's the kind of detail that will make this new Elite special in my, erm... ears.
Great interview as usual. When I listen to what he says, I say to myself : "With Jose, we are assured of a high quality work."
- there's a myriad of elements that we can work within this inner space, all of which can be reactive to meaningful parameters to the point that an experienced pilot should know the state of the spaceship just by listening to it.
- and my long term goal is that the pilot can intuitively have a feel of a particular ship, a grasp of how good it is and how well it is behaving, by listening alone.
- and in the long run, if a player turns the ship on, hears the start-up sequence and feels a sense of familiarity, that will make me really happy!
Another roguelike fan! Woohoo!
Just how many roguelike fans are there at FD?!
