Hi, I've got a really solid background in pro audio: music production, sound design for video/multimedia/SFX libraries, live sound, which I'm doing now part time. Over the last several years I've been contacted about jobs in audio engine programming for multimedia developers. Like many I always thought working for a game developer would be great, but I don't have the programming experience. I'm getting burnt out on the punk rock lifestyle of running live sound and want to turn my skills into something maybe a bit more practical. Anyway would anyone have some good advise as to where to begin and where to focus studies in audio programming/software development? thanks!

First of all, learn C/C++

Then simply switch to and start practicing any one of the below:

- FMod
- Audegie
- OpenAL
