GameSoundCon 2025 is just around the corner, and Side is preparing something special for attendees this year!  

From October 28-29 at the Burbank Convention Center, GameSoundCon will bring together composers, sound designers, dialogue specialists, researchers, educators, and industry professionals for two days of cutting-edge insights into video game sound, music, dialogue, and technology. 

This year, Side’s Creative Director of Music & Sound and Lead Composer, François-Xavier Dupas, takes the stage to explore “The Untapped Potential of MIDI in Interactive Music,” diving deep into how this foundational technology offers unexplored possibilities for modern game audio. The session will showcase practical workflows from building sampled instruments and programming synth patches to sequencing via DAWs and MIDI controllers; demonstrate integration techniques in Wwise; and reveal how MIDI can extend creative possibilities beyond conventional audio.

Don’t miss the talk on October 29th from 2:45-3:45 PM! More details can be found on the GameSoundCon website.

Beyond the presentation, our Side team will be on the floor connecting with game audio professionals about our full spectrum of services – from music composition and sound design to post-production and audio localization.
