Creature Ancient Collection Guide

The Creature Ancient collection features an extensive range of prehistoric animal vocalizations. A large variety of dinosaurs and mammals are represented with some insects and arachnids included as well. Each creature in the collection has multiple categories of sounds for different emotional or situation-dependent states. This includes multiple variations for idle, alerted, attack, pain, and death sounds.

The complete list of all subprojects, their associated data, and embedded metadata is available in the accompanying Creature Ancient SoundBook.

[Note]Note

This guide provides information specific to this collection. For general information that applies to all Strata collections, refer to the Strata User Guide.

The Main Project

The Creature Ancient project provides a convenient way to visualize, locate, and audition the sounds in the Creature Ancient collection. Additionally, it is a central point from which you can open the individual subprojects of the collection. The main project contains tracks for each subproject of the collection, with media items that reference the subprojects in nested tracks. You can audition any of the media items that reference the rendered output from the corresponding subproject.

In the Creature Ancient project, you can double-click the subproject media item to open the corresponding subproject, in which all of the tracks and layers available for the specific object are arranged.

Use the Region/Marker Manager to find and jump to the different subproject tracks. For more information, refer to Regions and Markers in the Strata User Guide.
