Edinburgh, Scotland, September 3, 2026 — Krotos has expanded its Video to Sound Footsteps workflow to Adobe Premiere Pro and DaVinci Resolve through Krotos Studio plugins. The latest Krotos Studio 2.8 update also includes a rebuilt browser, improved search, new tags and quick filters, and preset Favorites.
Footsteps reads the movement in a video clip and works out where each step lands, building a synchronized pass against the edit. In Premiere Pro and DaVinci Resolve, users can review the result inside the Krotos Studio plugin, change the suggested surface or footwear, adjust levels, or move individual steps. The timing stays in place when switching surfaces, making it easy to try different sounds without rebuilding the pass.
Faster sound search
Search in Krotos Studio has been rebuilt from the ground up with a focus on speed and accuracy. In addition to exact matches, the browser now returns similar results. It supports semantic searches, allowing users to describe the type of sound they are looking for even when they do not know the exact preset name.
The update also introduces preset Favorites, the most-requested feature from Krotos Studio users. Sound designers and editors can add any factory- or user-created preset to a searchable Favorites list and organize it using the new tag system.
New tags provide one-click access to commonly used searches, while quick filters allow users to jump directly to newly installed content, user-created presets, Favorites, and other areas of their library. Krotos Studio 2.8 also displays the currently loaded preset directly within the browser for easier reference while working.
The 2.8 update does not alter existing presets or require users to migrate their content. Current Krotos Studio users can update to version 2.8 and begin using the new browser features immediately.
