Rob Wallace has written music to several PC games. He has also written soundtracks to some movies. He first started on game music and sound when his friend Bruce Sandig introduced him to game design and Rob's first game soundtrack was for Classic Concentration (NES). While Rob was doing the game's music and sound, he enjoyed doing it and decided to pursue video game sound and music as a career. After seven years of doing music for games, he moved to Grand Junction, Colorado because of kidney failures and founded LazyCats Records.

Music Composition

For his PC music, Wallace used Digital Orchestrator Pro.

I used Voyetra Orchestrator Pro for MIDI creation and editing.

Back in the old days before fast digital audio and computers, developers only had a VERY limited amount of resources for music. The bulk was for graphics. Today I use Cubase AI4 with an OASYS keyboard and live players. I am not doing games anymore as I am other commercial music projects.
