Creating Cinematic Sound Effects in Krotos Studio
The Cinematic category presets are performed with either X-Y pad in the performance area.
Creating Sounds with the Presets
In each preset, you will see at least one 1 X-Y pad. To trigger sound effects, simply click inside the left X-Y pad.
There is a unique sound type in each quadrant. The closer you are to a particular corner, the more of that sound you will hear. You can click along the sides or centre to combine materials for more complex sound effects.
Tip: try short clicks for shorter sound effects, or click and hold for longer sounds. Move across the X-Y pad in different directions as you click and drag to combine the sounds in interesting ways.
Additional Controls
Cinematic sound effects are highly varied and require different parameters for every use case. As a result, the control layout changes depending on the preset selected. Some have 2 X-Y pads, for example, while other presets have controls for reverb amount, pitch, punchiness and more.
Dive into the cinematic presets and see what you can achieve with each selection.
Tip: You get a new sound every time you click, meaning your sound effects don’t become repetitive! Use the pitch controls to tailor these sounds even further; pitch upwards for smaller, lighter doors, and pitch downwards for big, heavy doors.
