BaseHead Ultra is a SFX searching Beast!
If you are a Sound Designer for video games or feature films using a DAW like Nuendo, REAPER or Pro Tools and want to speed up your workflow, then this is the tool for you!
BaseHead is coded in Native languages for both PC and macOS using hi-performance frameworks and NOT some wonky framework that is designed for creating VST plugins instead. Compare our datagrid speeds with the competition and that will make choosing BaseHead a complete no brainer! 😉
