01Overview

Whoosh FX is aimed at sound designers who need motion-based effects for picture and audio. It lets you shape a sound's duration, blend three layers of noise and texture, and add movement with doppler effects, envelopes and a morphing vowel filter. The developer describes the result as synchronized effects for motion graphics, television and film, as well as moving soundbeds for music and environments. A library of 400+ presets sorted by type gives you a starting point before you dig into the controls.

03In depth

Layered Sound Design and Texture Control

Whoosh FX is built around three discrete layers. Each layer draws from a selection of noises and textural sounds in categories including air, electrical, fire, metal, orchestral, water and wind. You can shape each layer with envelope presets or envelopes you draw with the mouse, which gives you direct control over how a whoosh rises, peaks and fades.

Movement is a core part of the design. Doppler effects and modulation let a sound pass across a space, and the morphing vowel filter adds a vocal-like character that moves over time. These tools are useful when a static texture needs to feel like it is travelling.

Effects and Workflow for Film, Games and Music

Whoosh FX includes studio-grade processing on the output, including a convolver, digital EQ, delay, IR reverb and a limiter. Because the effects chain is built in, you can finish a sound without leaving the plugin.

The developer positions the plugin for synchronized sound effects in motion graphics, TV and film, and for moving soundbeds in music and environmental work. The 400+ presets, organized by type, help you move from a rough idea to a usable effect quickly.
