Our mission is to elevate gameplay through precision audio craftsmanship — delivering original, emotionally resonant sound design that serves the player experience first, regardless of project size. In an era of AI-generated content, we double down on authenticity and originality: every sound is intentionally crafted, not generated.
Palm Tree Audio is a specialist game sound design studio delivering premium audio for console, PC, and mobile games — from first-time indie teams to the world's largest publishers. We bring major-studio craft and experience to every project, whatever its scale. Founded in 2023 by Carsten Rojahn — a veteran audio director with over 20 years of experience.
We exclusively produce custom, original sound design — ensuring every game receives a unique sonic identity, whether it's a two-person indie or a multi-studio co-production. Advanced expertise in Wwise, MetaSound, Unreal Engine, and in-house engines means seamless delivery from concept through to implementation.
Palm Tree Audio embeds as a collaborative partner within your team — adapting to your pipeline, your tools, and your production culture. Whether you're a solo developer, a growing AA studio, or a major publisher, we scale our process to fit yours. This approach has earned multiple industry nominations: GANG, MPSE, DICE, and NAMM TEC Awards.
Player-focused combat audio delivering visceral feedback and emotional impact. Weapon signature design and scalable audio systems built to work within your production constraints — from lean indie builds to full-scale console releases.
Detailed Foley work, movement systems, and original creature vocalisation. Cinematic sound design for believable, memorable characters across genres and platforms.
Rich, believable worlds through layered environmental design and complex systemic audio architecture. Interactive audio that reacts intelligently to gameplay state and player behaviour.
Advanced middleware integration and performance optimisation — Wwise, Unreal Engine MetaSound, and bespoke interactive audio pipelines. Whether you need full implementation or consultancy support for your own team, we adapt to what you need.
Custom sound design libraries built from worldwide field recording sessions. Every asset is original — guaranteeing a unique sonic identity for every project.
Strategic audio direction, creative vision development, and flexible co-development. Experienced leadership for teams of any size — from guiding a solo developer's audio vision to leading audio across international co-development pipelines.
Dedicated listening room — ATMOS monitoring and large-format screen for game playback testing, playing games and cinematic reference.
The main workspace — 5.1 Genelec monitors, four-screen setup.
Outboard processing — Because AI can't touch this. Tegeler Audio Manufaktur Crème compressor and Classic Pultec EQ, alongside dual RME Fireface interfaces.
Full room overview — GIK broadband panels, diffusers, and ceiling clouds for accurate, fatigue-free monitoring.
Elysia rackmount processors — surgical dynamics and analogue character across the entire signal chain.
Rack infrastructure — Eventide H9000R flagship harmoniser, firewall and Synology rackmount NAS for high-speed library asset storage.
Where the mountains meet the sea — a calm, quiet and inspiring setting where technology meets nature.
100% solar powered — every monitor, processor and workstation runs on renewable energy.
