Sound Designer Tim Conrardy Passes Away

The name Tim Conrardy might not spark instant name recognition with you, but if you've purchased a softsynth in the past few years, chances are good you are familiar with his work. Mr. Conrardy created presets for a number of instruments, most recently, Camel Audio's Alchemy. He was apparently on a hike, passed out and never regained consciousness. My condolences to his wife, friends, and family. Though he is gone physically, his legacy will go on in the music people create with his sounds.

Wow, I never expected that, that is incredibly sad news :( I absolutely love Tim Conrardy's work, especially his Alchemy presets.

RIP space-music-maestro!
