As a game developer, I was working on my project and got stuck on sound. I spent hours browsing asset stores and sound libraries for the perfect gunshot sound effect, but nothing felt quite right. Some were too big, some too small, and none were easily tweakable.


So, I Built the Solution

I decided to create my own tool to solve this problem: Gunsmith Studio. It's a standalone, web-based tool that lets you design completely custom, layered gunshot sounds from scratch in seconds. Now, I'm releasing it for other developers who have faced the same frustration.

Key Features

  • Layered Synthesis: Build your sound from fundamental components: a mechanical click, a shell ejection, a supersonic crack, a deep muzzle blast, and an environmental tail.
  • Intuitive Sliders: No complex audio engineering knowledge required. Tweak simple sliders for Volume, Pitch, Decay, and Filtering to instantly hear the result.
  • Attachment Simulation: Quickly toggle between Unsuppressed and Suppressed modes to generate two distinct, professionally-profiled versions of your sound.
  • Built-in Reverb: Place your sound in an environment with one-click reverb presets like Room, Forest, Cathedral, or Bunker.
  • Instant Visualization: See your sound's waveform update in real-time as you make changes.
  • One-Click Export: Export your final sound as a high-quality, game-ready .WAV file. (Full version only)
  • Project Management: Save and Load your sound designs to build a library for your project. (Full version only)

Who is this for?

  • Indie Developers who need custom SFX without the high cost.
  • Game Jam Participants who need to create sounds fast.
  • Sound Designers looking for a rapid prototyping tool.
  • Hobbyists who love to experiment with sound!
