ProSound is it in 3ds Max 2017?

Anonymous — Thu, 11 May 2017 17:02:04 GMT

Ladies and Gentlemen,

If anyone can assist that would be great! I just learned about ProSound and was wondering if that comes with 3ds Max 2017 student version? I'm in the middle of my final course in 3D animation and need to add dialogue, voice over and sound effects to the animation but I didn't see ProSound in my 3ds Max 2017. Am I just looking in the wrong place? It seems so complicated to add in sound and sync it up, but maybe I'm making it harder than it has to be? Can anyone show me maybe how to simplify that process? Or point me toward a simple tutorial?

As ever,

Crystal

Hi Crystal,

Have you looked through the ProSound information in the 3ds Max 2017 Help file? You should be able to add audio tracks to your animation via the Curve Editor and Dope Sheet.

Please let us know if this helps!

Best regards,

Hey Jon,

Thanks much! I'm in my last course of 3D Animation Certification and even though I've been in it for just over a year, I feel like we've skimmed by so fast that I haven't learned the fundamentals of what each software has to offer and how to use it appropriately.

I'll be immersing in the various Autodesk software after graduation + Adobe Creative Suite and ToonBoom Harmony & Storyboard so that over the next 2-3 years I can gain a more solid foundation and higher levels of understanding and skill in the creation of models, scenes, and animations.

What you've done here, is a great service to me by letting me have a wonderful tool for my final project that'll help with the lip sync / voice over etc. I'm creating any custom dialogue using Audacity and I'll be using some music but will write the company / artist for permission to use it in my project assignment so I don't owe $$ on it 🙂

You made my week!

Crystal
