Easily perform or automate movement using up to 5 discrete layers of pan, doppler and reverb (with a collection of impulse responses) all from one master controller. Route the output of each module back to your DAW for mixing and rendering layers, or export to your game engine or audio middleware solution. And better yet, as with all Krotos Audio products, you can even import and process your own sounds into our One Shot and Loop Systems for use beyond engine vehicle design!
Krotos Audio founder and CEO, Orfeas Boteas comments: “Vehicle sound design is often very complex, with many layers of different sounds creating the overall sound you hear. These layers change continuously based on what the vehicle is doing and where you are positioned, relative to it. Given that our customers are always looking to improve their workflow, Igniter aims to make the process more elegant and creative, empowering them to perform, automate and customise any vehicle sound they need whilst saving them hours of editing.”
Sound designer Richard Devine who has worked for the likes of Jaguar and Google, believes that “Krotos Audio’s
