Krotos Weaponiser Basic - Sound Design Layering Plugin
Krotos Weaponiser Basic - Sound Design Layering Plugin
Krotos Weaponiser Basic is the Basic edition of Krotos' layering sampler for designing and performing sound effects from one plugin. You can import your own sounds or start from the factory library, layer sample engines and the built-in synthesisers, and trigger the result from the plugin or via MIDI. This edition is a smaller factory library than Weaponiser Fully Loaded.
- Drag-and-drop multi-sample layering, with up to 80 audio files across four sample engines and three built-in synthesis engines
- Trigger the whole plugin or individual engines via MIDI, with velocity for programmed or performed variation
- Colour-coded timeline for offsetting engines, a Fire button to trigger sounds, and Burst mode for automatic bursts from one-shot assets, with the fire rate adjustable in real time
- Multi-channel output so each engine can be processed separately or sent to its own stereo track
- Switch between presets while keeping sync in the DAW
- Basic factory library: 1,385 samples (including 515 weapon samples), 160 presets and 1.88 GB of assets, covering a concise selection of weapons, whooshes, footsteps, magic, UI and trailer sounds
- Does not include the Footsteps, UI, Whooshes, Trailers and Magic expansion libraries, or the larger preset and sample counts, that come with Weaponiser Fully Loaded
