I feel as though I know barcode from a previous life/forum.

I'm not hammering at allI did a quick forum search on the word 'foley'. The first page of results, twenty-two threads, cover a period from Feb 2010 to now. While there is obviously some interest there, I agree with the others who suggest that there is not enough to warrant a separate forum.
This is a sound design / Foley related thread. At the moment is has 112 views with zero responses because I’m sure those who browsed it were connected to music and not into sound design, this is why they couldn’t suggest nothing on that matter.
Long lost sibling?
The "112" views" is flattering and mis-leading. Out of those 112, I'd bet at least 80 of them were spam-bots. Go into any forum almost any time of the day, and you'll see something like "2 members and 46 guests" viewing a thread. 112 views doesn't mean anything.
There just isn't enough interest. Let it go already.
I know that I would post up some sound designs that am proud of, Endorya.
When elbandito spoke of "disappear like so many others", my understanding of that wasn't that he was talking about the foley lovers in particular, but rather, the general traffic. We get many people that show up for a short while, get quite involved and then just disappear, sometimes for months, sometimes for years, sometimes indefinitely and sometimes......forever.The user elbandito said something to me at my “recording rain methods” thread:
“(…) I'm excited to know that there are other folks interested in Field Recording/Foley here on HR and it'd be a shame to have you disappear like so many others(…)”
(...)
Also, thinking about it, on a home recording forum, for many, it's as much as they want to do to record their songs and have a permanent record of some sort. Not that many people think in terms of peppering their stuff with sound effects. So really, what we see on this forum in relation to sound effects {it was only reading this thread that I ever even heard the word "Foley". The Foleys were this family of smoking ne'er~do~wells that I went to school with !} is kind of consistent with the recording world at large.(...)
I'm sorry. What do you mean?
so I will simply accept that and move along.
Thanks for your comment. I consider this thread closed.
What I mean is that I do a lot of sound effects that am proud of.
Today for instance I will be providing sound for a local city's Christmas tree lighting. Lots of vocal groups singing carols a brass band performing holiday music .....
THEN the mayor will come out to the band stand to recite *Twas the night before Christmas* and all through the reading are the 15 or so sound effects that I made in my studio that accompany the reading.
They took me an afternoon and a lot of imagination to get the right sounds but I accomplished a satisfying sound scape of reindeer hoofs on the roof, Santa's laugh, Santa's journey down and up the chimney etc.
Dang! I hope you stick around.
If we could just keep that gingerbread man from running through here!

Your link seems to play fine here. I'm no master hack.
I'm not sure I would call this forum mature, but we definitely try to keep the site clean. Polite is just something we aspire to be.![]()
