About SFXEngine

SFXEngine is powerful sound creation software for Windows PC's, perhaps the only software in the world designed to develop new sound effects in a modular, procedural way. Using a plug-in based synthesis system, you can use SFXEngine to quickly and easily create any sound or add new audio effects to existing sounds.

Like filters in graphics programs, the engines in SFXEngine are plug-in files that create or manipulate sound in some way. The Sample engine will play a sample of your choice, and the Nitroverb engine will add reverb. Up to twelve engines are placed in series to make a program. All of the engines use unique custom algorithms, so you won't find the silky smooth Oxyverb reverb anywhere else.

Modulation is power. Every engine in SFXEngine has a number of parameters, the Low Pass Filter engine for example has Cutoff frequency as a parameter. What makes SFXEngine so powerful is that any parameter can be modulated. Modulator waves are wav files, so it's easy to design your own.

Environments give you another layer of processing. Using another set of engines, you can apply the same audio effects to all of your sounds. You might create a cavern environment, or a tunnel environment. You can add as many environments as you like to a project, and naturally you can load and save environments between projects.
