Plug-Ins and Standalone tools for all of you mixing and sound design needs

  • Want to design your own whoosh sound effects? Wave Warper is a revolutionary new way to create your own amazing custom whooshes, passbys, morphed sounds, and sample mayhem. It is a standalone app that combines and loops up to 6 sound file layers to create one new dynamic file using multiple real-time controllable effects and optional VST plugins.

    For years sound designers and musicians alike have had to painstakingly layer sounds within DAWs and create time consuming midi controlling scenes to create whoosh, doppler, and passby effects.

    Wave Warper takes advanced concepts and simplifies them into one quick, fun, and intuitive software. It is incredibly addictive to use, and produces sounds like you've never heard before.

    Wave Warper features:

    • Load up to 6 sound files
    • Load up to 10 VST plugins within Wave Warper
    • Real-time user controlled XY pad allows you to 'perform' Wave Warper
    • Pitch, volume, panning, and filtering defined envelopes follow along in real-time
    • Randomizes your sound library folders to quickly generate new sounds
    • Sine, triangle and square LFOs
    • Wind and whistle generators
    • 2 compressors
    • 9 filter settings that follow along in real-time
    • Volume fluctuation on each file for creating dynamic sounds per layer
    • Leap Motion control option. Leap Motion sold separately here
    • Reverb
    • Compatible with Mac and PC (32 bit and 64 bit)

    System Requirements:

    An Intel® Mac with Mac OS X 10.7 (or later), OR a PC with Windows 7 (or later); Multicore processor; 2 GB RAM; 1024×768 display.

  • TEXTROBOT is a NI Kontakt instrument designed to help you in the sound design of UI sounds and to produce retriggered samples for VFX text animations.

    All 165 sounds are easily accessible using a MIDI master keyboard from the first octave. You can choose a category to load a set of samples and play it manually, or in the retriggered way (if active) by holding down the note. The full version of NI Kontakt is required to use this library.

    Sound categories:

    Click (10 samples): very tight, clicky sounds for UI interface usage or small text VFX
    Bleeps (16 samples): it contains bleeping sounds, tones, and alerts for telemetrics and sci-fisound design
    Big Size (16 samples): a collection of low frequency sounds for big title animation
    Percussive (22 samples): organic and processed percussive sounds like shakers, maracas, and woods for multimedia apps or menu sound design
    Fun (30 samples): a collection of funny sounds for cartoonish motion graphics
    Digital (20 samples): glitches and lo-fi sounds for experimental videos
    Keys (28 samples): keyboards, typewriters, and mouse sounds
    Mechanical (23 samples): switches, clangs, squeaks, and metal impact sounds for mechanic motion graphics

    “WINNER OF THE INDIE SOUND AWARDS 2022”

     

  • Drones & Mood Sound Effects Infinite Pads and Drones for Kontakt Play Track 160 sounds included, 15min (embedded Loop points) mins total $29

    “Infinite” specializes in dark drones, wide ambiances and thrilling textures that play with great depth and large stage.
    Each of the 160 included samples was carefully handcrafted by treating various sources with a complex chain of hardware FX units. The resulting sounds can be used out of the box whenever it comes to the creation of impressive background layers or establishing otherworldly movie scenes.

    The library contains two folders: North and South.
    The sounds in the North folder still have trace elements of harmonic structures while the South folder provides textures without decent pitch.

    All contained sounds have looppoints embedded so that they can play infinitely in the true sense of the word.
    This is achieved best with the two additional Kontakt 4 instruments that have all sounds layered across the keyboard.
    Nevertheless, the delivered WAV files can be loaded into any modern software sample with loop support.

  • The Burroughs Protectograph that we acquired was manufactured around the turn of the 20th century and had a single unique function – to stamp and emboss checks for banks. The Burroughs corporation has been around since 1886, and was an early force in the adding machine, check stamper and typewriter industries. This Protectograph version had an electric mechanism that would move large printheads down through a ribbon and would stamp a check hard and repeatedly for as long as the print key was held down. Our machine was acquired in perfect working condition.

    Its keys have a short through but a satisfying clack, and the punch mechanism is a huge whir stamp sound than can cycle if the punch button is held down. We rolled with the case both on and off, which revealed very different sounds from the main electric mechanisms.

    We ran the whole session with three perspectives miked up – front by the keys, in the back by the punch and a wide perspective perfect for bgfx placement. The front and back mics were Schoeps CMC6.MK4 and the wide mic was an AT 4050 in omni about 5 feet away. Listen to the straight examples give a clear accounting of the type of sounds we got from this machine, and the bent examples show what can really be done with those sounds and the Kontakt instrument.

  • Motion Texures is a broad library with a narrow purpose: to draw sonic lines and create gently moving sonic textures.

    The concept is that consistent sound of friction will translate well to visual design elements that have CG and text movement on screen.

    We recorded the friction sounds of dozens of small to medium sized props in constant motion. Major categories include metal, plastic, cloth, wood and skin. Some of the most interesting sounds came from the props that had small cavities such as the spray can lid and the water bottle. The constant changing of the cavity state relative to the mics creates strange vocal sounds.

    Once the sounds were recorded we employed a proprietary smoothing process as a second pass to the sounds and provided them in addition to the original textures. These smoothed out sounds still have the organic quality of the original recordings, but with far fewer transient events. The end result are sounds that feel straighter than the more circular sounding original textures.

    Inside of the Kontakt instruments we stacked layers and effects to create a broad base of deep and interesting textures. Many of the Kontakt presets mangle the sounds far beyond recognition of the original recordings.

    • 92 unique original samples
    • 92 smoothed samples
    • 25 Kontakt unlocked design .nki files

  • FOOTSTEPS is practically a whole rack of shoes compiled into one single outstanding playable KONTAKT 5 instrument: it comprises boots, dress shoes, high heels, leather shoes and sneakers. We got accurate recordings of paces on all sorts of different grounds: wood, concrete, gravel, metal, sand and parquet. In addition, we added a lot of generic sound layers that can be easily added to the mix. Those layers include sounds of cloth, leather, metal, grass, water and snow.

    Key specs
    • Playable KONTAKT 5 instrument
    • 5 different shoes, 8 different surfaces
    • More than 22.000 different samples
    • Effective workflow: well-grounded Soundminer Metadata

    Oh, and of course it also covers the fact that our physical equipment supposes an amount of two feet, so the sounds come to you as distinguished by side and gesture: right or left foot taking steps, slides, stairs; tip, heel, full loading or relieving moves. All in all we recorded more than 22.000 different samples.

  • 3 mic perspectives give full coverage on an antique typewriter in good working condition.  The typewriter had a loose front plate and we clacked, hit and dropped it for a wide range of cool typewritery sounds. The Kontakt instrument presets requires the full version of NI Kontakt 4.2.3 or later.

    Note: Can be used without Kontakt too!
    All Kontakt instrument libraries include fully unlocked and accessible metadata tagged .wav files. You don't need any version of Kontakt to use these files as a standalone sample library.

  • 800+ sounds from one of the most complex and varied sounding instruments that we’ve come across in our junk shop travels. Broken strings, creaky wood and a great resonant cavity gave us a massive collection of sounds ready to be bent and twisted.

    This is a fretless German harp zither, which differs in quality significantly from concert zithers, which have several strings with fretted necks beneath them. This version was manufactured by Friederich Menzenhauer, the father of the zither in the US. Zithers of this kind are notoriously difficult to identify because they contain no distinguishing marks on the bodies themselves, and the only branding is on the paper label deteriorating inside the soundhole.

    Our version had been worn beyond all repair through decades of age and neglect. Broken strings, creaky wood and a great resonant cavity gave us a massive collection of sounds ready to be bent and twisted.

    We did much more than just throw a couple of mics up and pluck – this instrument was recorded with a stethoscope mic, a lav inside the cavity, overhead xy, room mics, and more. We banged, scraped, bowed, ebowed, and thumped every last noise out of this one in three separate sessions. The end result was a collection of about 5 Gb of edited stereo 24 bit 96k sound.

    The Kontakt instruments are where the real magic happens with this instrument. There are presets for horror string hits, angelic and demonic pads, old creaks and more. The zither barely survived, but it gave us an array of sounds that are very different from what you’ll get from a properly tuned and maintained instrument. It is the uniqueness of the decay that gives our zither its character.
