Environment FlexiFX Xtreme Gaming Audio!
Environment FlexiFX allows game developers to deliver the most extreme sound effects in games! They have total access to the hardware effects engine of the X-Fi® Processor, which allows them to deliver the ultimate audio experience ever!
With previous versions of EAX® ADVANCED HD, developers had to live with some restrictions. For example, there were limits on the number of hardware effects they could use to create the game's audio environment. They had four effects slots available, but two of those had to be used for Environment Reverb and Chorus. This meant that they only had two slots left to use for additional effects. EAX® ADVANCED HD 5.0, has completely re-designed how the effects engine operates and therefore provides developers with 4 fully flexible slots to use! This means that if they want to create audio for a level that has no reverbs (for example, if you are outside in an open area) but they want to add other sound effects to the weapons or monsters, then they can. You can expect to hear some amazing audio effects in games that support EAX® ADVANCED HD 5.0!
Because of this complete re-design, features of previous versions of EAX® are no longer relevant as they have been superseded by (and included in) Environment FlexiFX.
These features are:
- EAX® ExtendedFX
- Environment Reverb
- EAX® Multi-Environment
