Sound Design and Foley Workflow

Xtreme FX 2 is built around sounds for film, games and production work, from practical foley to effects you can shape into something new. The library is organized into categories, so you can find a starting point quickly.

Drag-and-drop support lets you bring in your own samples alongside the included library. That makes it easy to mix your recordings with UVI's sounds and process them in the same instrument.

Sound Shaping and XY Performance Control

The advanced sound shaping tools let you reshape each sound beyond simple playback. The XY performance control gives you a single gesture for moving between sound settings while you play or record, which suits live tweaking and automation.

Use it when you want an effect to change over time rather than sit at one fixed setting. The same approach works for building stylized instruments from short sound sources.
