Sound Designer Carlos Bricio shares how he feels Krotos Studio provides sound effects for all creatives, from beginners to professionals.
Here is where Krotos' originality comes into play. You don’t simply browse a library of sounds… you perform them! Carlos Bricio
Are you a filmmaker needing professional-quality sounds, but don’t know where to start? Have you found yourself browsing endlessly for free sounds just to end up with something that didn’t quite fit your vision?
Finding the right sounds for a project can be difficult. It can be even more tricky if you don’t have the right tools, budget or library.
Thankfully Krotos Studio lets you create engaging sound FX all in one platform.
What is Krotos Studio?
Krotos Studio is an ever-growing platform. It allows everyone from professional sound designers, to film editors, or content creators to intuitively create realistic sound effects in seconds.
Krotos Studio has all the essential categories: ambiences, Foley, footsteps, whooshes, weapons and more.
Here is where Krotos' originality comes into play... you don’t simply browse a library of sounds… you perform them!
Performing Sound Effects
The magic behind Krotos Studio is that you perform sound. You set the preset for your scene, character or mood and then play around with the parameters until you get the sound that you are after.
The result? Sound effects tailored to your project, in seconds. But it doesn’t stop there...
Krotos Studio is interactive and ever-evolving. You can perform sounds just like a Foley artist would do, or capture ambience as if you were on location. This is all done in the box by simply clicking and dragging your mouse around. Carlos Bricio
Krotos Studio is all about staying creative while speeding up your workflow. No more auditioning sounds one after the other. Just perform the sounds while watching your footage and you are done!
Furthermore, Krotos Studio provides never-repeating variations to your sounds, making them more realistic. Every footstep, gunshot, rise or explosion will sound different.
