03In depth

Shoe, Surface and Clothing Options

Walker 2 includes 22 shoe and foot types, 32 surfaces and 24 clothing materials. Combining these choices lets you build a footstep that reflects a specific character walking across a specific floor in specific clothing.

Customizable sub-layers add further detail to each sound. Because the sounds are assembled from separate layers, you can adjust the character of a footstep without starting over.

The developer describes the tool as suited to both realistic and fantastical sounds, so it can also be used for creature or science-fiction footsteps.

Workflow for Post-Production and Sound Design

UVI describes the workflow as intuitive, with deep creative possibilities underneath. The plugin is aimed at post facilities and sound designers who work to tight deadlines on dialogue-heavy or action-heavy scenes.

Walker 2 runs in UVI Workstation and Falcon, so it fits into projects built around UVI's instrument ecosystem.
