Sound design for motion videos with REAL recorded sounds from the user's own libraries (a sorted main pack of whooshes, hits, risers, pops, chimes, keystrokes, foley, ambiences plus fallback libraries) and UI cues from uisfx, never synthesized. Finds the moments from the project's own cue list or from the synthesizer script that makes its sound, from a HyperFrames composition, from a screen recording (regions: typing, toasts, scrolls, clicks) or from the picture itself, picks and processes the…

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# real-sfx: real sounds for a motion video

The goal: the film sounds as if a person with a good library had cut it. So:

- **Sound is never synthesized.** Sources: the user's libraries (`config.json`) and uisfx (a ready CC0 pack of
  interface sounds, itself synthesized: the one exception, only for interface moments; "no synthesis" turns it off:
  `--ui library`). No fitting sound: the moment stays quiet and goes into the report. This overrides
  "no track: synthesize" from motion-standards.
- **You cannot hear.** Sound is read as numbers, words and pictures (`references/listening.md`). Do not present a pick
  as listened to: say what was checked by eye and by measurement, and what the user should listen to.
- **Keep the music and voice** when they carry the film. The result is always a new MP4 **and a separate WAV track**.
- **Do not double.** Synthesis baked into the render's audio is replaced by the real sounds, not layered under them
  (step 1). The critique measures this as a number (the `doubling` axis).
- **Do not change the project or the skill folder.** Put all working files in your own folder (`work/`, `result/`).

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add sallyrs/video-director/real-sfx@sha256:3c82c7abf773fdd0

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261106.a5f8902, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
