Calcium Audio

I build algorithmic audio systems for Unity, Unreal, VST3, and the web.

Calcium Audio is the portfolio of Calum Vaughan: procedural game audio, RNBO-based instruments, browser audio experiments, plugin development, and strange audiovisual systems built with Max/MSP, gen~, JUCE, Unity, ChucK, and JavaScript.

Procedural DSP

Generative synthesis, feedback networks, delay systems, distortion, and sound engines that evolve through interaction.

Game audio mechanics

Playable systems where listening carries clues, tension, navigation, failure states, and progression.

RNBO integration

Taking Max patches into browser instruments, Unity projects, VST3 plugins, and standalone interactive tools.

Unity audio systems

First-person sound toys, procedural scene audio, live-coded ChucK environments, and reactive worlds.

VST3 development

RNBO C++ exports, JUCE interfaces, custom controls, release builds, and plugins with a clear visual identity.

Audio tool design

Practical utilities for auditioning, comparison, iteration, and faster creative decision-making.

Web instruments

Interactive browser audio with movement control, canvas visuals, React interfaces, and unstable audiovisual behaviour.

Experimental workflow

Fast prototypes, odd failures, and Codex-assisted development turned into reusable audio workflows.
