Krotos Reformer Pro - Performable Foley and Sound Design Plugin
Krotos Reformer Pro - Performable Foley and Sound Design Plugin
Krotos Reformer Pro is a sound-design plugin that turns pre-recorded audio into a performable instrument. You can drive it in real time from a microphone, a MIDI controller or an input audio file, and analyse your own libraries with the included Analysis Tool.
- Perform pre-recorded libraries in real time from a microphone, MIDI controller or input audio file
- Analysis Tool for dragging in folders of audio, analysing them at a chosen sample rate and performing your own sounds
- Dynamic Input for creating dynamic sound design without a live audio input, and for scanning a library by frequency or amplitude
- MIDI performance with velocity and pitch, without needing a microphone
- Continuous Mode for evolving drones, ambiences and textures, including render-to-timeline with AudioSuite in Pro Tools
- Transient Engine that identifies transient sections during analysis, with variation controls and velocity-sensitive MIDI triggering
- Krotos Factory Content: more than 3.8 GB of sounds (3.82 GB unpacked) as a separate download from the plugin installer, at 96/192 kHz, including libraries such as Air Vent, Bengal Tiger, Bonfire, Glass Foley, Gun Foley, Ice Debris, Leather Foley and Water Splashing
Supplied as a digital download with a perpetual licence. After purchase you receive a 24-character licence deposit code by email. Redeem it at krotosaudio.com/activate, then enter your iLok ID so the licence is deposited to your iLok account. Plugin and library downloads are then available from your Krotos account dashboard. Activation uses the iLok License Manager (a free iLok account at ilok.com is required). A hardware dongle is not required; you can activate the licence to your computer, or to an iLok 2 or later dongle if you prefer. The licence works on one computer at a time, and an internet connection is needed to activate. Krotos' official FAQ states that its plugins do not support first-generation iLok keys or iLok Cloud Sessions. Official manuals and the Igniter FAQ describe the plugins as VST, AU and AAX, 64-bit, for macOS and Windows. The current Reformer Pro and Igniter product pages do not list VST3, AudioSuite, a minimum operating-system version or Apple Silicon support. An internet connection is needed at activation.
