Three discrete microphone perspectives were created to expand your creative possibilities: Classic, Contemporary, and Player. Each perspective offers a unique tonal character and sound, from the natural and nuanced Classic, to the bright and hard-hitting Contemporary, to the intimate and immersive Player perspective.

Garritan and Abbey Road Studios have also developed a range of presets that are both functional and inspiring. These presets were created with reference to artists, genres, notable recordings, cinematic settings, and live performance examples, making the CFX a versatile and flexible musical instrument.
