Chase Bethea gets a 2peat! New article featured in Recording Magazine September 2025 Edition – Plugins for Video Games
September 17, 2025It’s a 2peat!!
Last year, I made history by having an article about video game music and music design in the nationwide Recording Magazine (April 2024 edition) in 20 years! This year I have returned with my article “Plugins for Video Game Music!”
I discuss some of the my video game composer sonic sauces used to create the NYX Award (Gold) and International Architecture and Design Platinum Award winning video game soundtrack Aground Zero.
Insights include VSTs from @SoundironAudio @CINEMATICINSTRUMENTS and Xpand! ( @AIRmusictech ) @NativeInstruments @iZotopeOfficial @revealsound as well as mixing plugins from @TheHouseofKushTV @SoundSpotOfficial @soundtoys and @ValhallaDSP indited in the DAW, Cubase @steinberg
I am so grateful for this and excited to highlight many audio software companies that made it possible for me to craft the dynamic game soundtrack. Rarely do you see articles about video game music production so, I am proud to have this one for readers who are constantly curious about my process.
Cop your copy of this month’s Recording Magazine September 2025 edition and discover some of the gems.
