Sonic Reality Serafine FX Tron

Serafine FX Tron is the first complete sound effects workstation made as virtual instrument software. It comes with Sonic Reality’s Infinite Player, powered by Kontakt, and works stand-alone for the Mac and PC as well as a plug-in for all major DAWS. FX Tron was done with the cutting edge sound effects of acclaimed sound-designer – Frank Serafine (The Hunt for Red October, Lawnmower Man, Star Trek, Tron). It features over 12,000 sound effects covering ambient soundscapes, animals, electronics, industrial, musical, nature, science fiction, vehicles, weapons, explosions and more.

Designed for both Film/Media sound effects use and for music composition, Serafine FX Tron features sounds you can mold like clay. Whether it is interactive foley with advanced convolution reverb for matching sound effects to dialogue, or creating the ultimate alien creature’s roar by playing a lion mixed with a bear two octaves down the keyboard, the Serafine FX Tron virtual instrument is the ideal source for any sound effects needs.
