Five mixing tricks that keep game sound clear

Good sounds can still add up to a bad mix. Each demo below plays the same short moment twice, side by side: without the trick on the left and with it on the right. Auto A/B plays one loop of each side in turn. You can also tap a side to stay on it, or press the buttons under a demo to play the moment yourself.

Sound stays off until you press play, and only one demo plays at a time. Every sound is generated live in your browser. Headphones help, especially for the high-cut demo.
