Following the recent launch of its Video to Sound plugin for Adobe Premiere Pro, Krotos is expanding the technology to Blackmagic Design’s DaVinci Resolve. The new integration is designed to allow editors to build an initial synchronized sound effects pass using Krotos’ audio library.
“Video to Sound is designed to give editors a stronger starting point, whether they’re working without a dedicated sound team or handing a project over to one later in post-production,” said Orfeas Boteas, founder and CEO of Krotos. “It helps bring better sound into the creative process earlier while keeping sound professionals in control of the final result.”
Rather than automating sound design, Video to Sound helps editors create an initial synchronized sound effects pass.
Editors select a section of the timeline and choose which sound elements to include before Video to Sound analyzes the scene and places synchronized sound effects from the Krotos royalty-free library directly onto the timeline. At launch, the plugin supports ambiences, whooshes, transitions, risers, impacts, and cloth effects, with footsteps and spot effects planned in a future update at no additional cost.
