IZOTOPE sponsors GANG and new Q Challenge

GANG is happy to announce that we has a new sponsor in IZOTOPE, which we are very excited about! They have been creating some very special audio software products, and have some very specific game audio applications of their products coming soon. There will be more on IZOTOPE’s involvement with GANG very soon, but for now, here are the details of this quarter’s Q CHALLENGE (after the jump)

So, our next Q CHALLENGE will be based on 2 of IZOTOPE’s products: Iris and Trash 2

They have provided GANG members with a 30 day extended trial period of these two products. So you can download either (or both) product(s) from the Izotope site ( http://izotope.com/support/portal/downloads.asp) and then send an email to Alex Davis here at gang ([email protected]) to ask for an extended trial code for either or both products, and he will send you those!

Here’s the rules for this quarter’s Q CHALLENGE!

SUBJECT: “Imagination Distorted”

RULES:

– Free style and Instrumentation allowed, just one major rule: Your compositions must use iZotope Trash 2 and/or Iris.
