I AM
Marco
Beck.
Audio Designer | Implementer
Games | VR
I'm a dedicated sound designer since 2018 with a deep love for both gaming and creating captivating and believable interactive audio experiences. As a gamer myself, I understand the tremendous value of exceptional audio in games.
I am currently working as an Audio Designer at Rennsport.gg
My passion is using middleware like Wwise and FMOD, and seamlessly integrating them into different game engines, since to me it's one of the most satisfying things creating complex audio systems and interactions, hearing them work and thus enhancing the overall experience.
"If you stop wanting to improve, you stop being good" is my motto. I firmly believe in continuously improving my abilities, expanding my own horizon by learning skills I lack and thus delivering increasingly better audio that brings something unique and special to the final game.
