EDWARD brings high quality and natural randomized Foley Artist footsteps to every audio production studio: offers high end
recordings and parameters to adjust distance and environment based on Native Instruments Kontakt engine. Cologne, December
26th Feb. 2015 – Tovusound announces EDWARD – Foleyart Instrument, the long awaited live playable Foley Artist Instrument
for Native Instruments Kontakt with adjustable distance and high end recordings.



The EDWARD soundpatch gives access instantaneously to thousands of high quality footsteps including different walking speeds,
behaviours and surfaces. EDWARD brings the timeless and high potential of Foley Artists that fits perfectly in today’s studio.
EDWARDS flexibility originates from the unique arrangement of the microphones while recording. The user receives the possibility
to put the footstep suitably to the picture or the situation perfectly. To get access to more capabilities EDWARD comes with
several selected filters like 3Band, High Pass and Low Pass. An ADSR Envelope gives you the opportunity to manipulate the original
sound. A section to add room responses is integrated on every patch.



The clean designed user interface of EDWARD gives instant access to all necessary parameters without searching. Every function
can be assigned to any Midi Controller for better performance while playing. Additional Tablet Control Templates for Lemur and
TouchOSC give full control with touch pads. EDWARDS algorithm is based on the Round Robin function in Native Instruments Kontakt
to get never the same sound in a row. By receiving the midinote on a walking behaviour, EDWARD plays the suitable sample and by
receiving the same note, EDWARD plays the next logical sample. An automatically left/right foot iversion gives even more harmony
in walking behaviours and naturally sounding footsteps.
