Located on the interface, this knob allows you to blend between the "Clean" sample and a heavily processed, destroyed version of the sound. This is not just a distortion pedal; it is a custom parallel processing chain involving compression, saturation, bit-crushing, and EQ.

It includes a proprietary glitch engine that lets you stutter, reverse, and re-arrange loops on the fly.

Heavyocity’s original Damage, released in 2007, completely redefined the landscape of epic cinematic percussion. It became the go-to library for Hollywood composers, trailer houses, and game audio professionals alike—practically synonymous with the hybrid orchestral sound that dominated blockbuster scores for over a decade.

The MIDI Performance tool and NKI structure make it faster to build complex arrangements.

The Ensemble Designer is the cinematic centerpiece of Damage 2. This engine allows you to load over 700 individual sources and pre-designed octave banks across a keyboard layout, then position them in a virtual 3D space using Heavyocity's redesigned "Stage" interface.
