DAY 18 – VIRTUAL FOLEY ARTIST V1.1
Day 18 is about our very handy and playable Kontakt 5 “instrument” Virtual Foley Artist – Footsteps.
Today, we’re presenting to you the updated version 1.1 of this instrument which adds a requested feature and makes the instrument even more flexible when designing foley footsteps for your next project.
NEW FEATURE: SPLIT / SINGLE
As per default the instrument plays a footstep in SINGLE mode, offering a basic way to play a complete step with only one key. SINGLE simply means that in your KONTAKT instrument the heel keys C and D automatically trigger the corresponding tip on key C# or key D# by a certain delay in ms (default is 75 ms), resulting in one complete step sound with a fixed length. Of course you can alter the delay in the TIP DELAY screen. When SINGLE is clicked the more advanced SPLIT mode becomes active. In this case you have to play the tip and release on C# or D# by yourself, resulting in a much more flexible outcome with more variety and character. This needs a bit more practice to perform but enables you to create even better footstep sounds.
