Multi-Track Sequencing:

Evidence of multi-track sequencing:

I used the sound of people screaming and explosion and machine gun sounds to make it sound like a war is going on in a town or city. I used four separate sound tracks, two are different explosions, one is a machine gun and one is the ambience (the people screaming). The screaming is meant to be citizens who are scared trying to get away. I used the panning sound effect to make the explosions, gunfire and screaming sound like they’re coming from different directions and changed the volume to make them sound close up or far away. I also used the same track multiple times to make the explosions sound more consistent.
