Nx from Waves is a virtual monitoring plug-in that simulates the ideal acoustics of a high-end mix room inside headphones, allowing the user to hear the same natural depth, reflections, and panoramic stereo image as if listening to speakers in an actual professional mix room. This provides a more reliable mixing and monitoring tool, and by delivering the natural listening experience of a physical room, the software also makes the headphone experience more comfortable and ear-friendly over long periods of time. Additionally mixing for 5.1 or 5.0 surround on regular stereo headphones is possible. And real-time head tracking, taking advantage of the computer’s camera, provides enhanced realism of being in the virtual mix room.

Bring Grammy-winner mixer Chris Lord-Alge’s famed Mix LA studio control room to any pair of headphones with Waves CLA Nx, a plug-in that lets you monitor reliably on headphones, so you can make better mixing decisions when working in an acoustically imperfect room or on the road.

Chris’s complete monitoring setup is available over your headphones via CLA Nx. This includes the acoustic response of Chris’s NS10-modeled CLA-10 nearfield monitors, coupled with his subwoofer system; his custom-built Ocean Way Fairfield speakers, modified to his specs; and even the boombox model he relies on to check how his mixes will translate to small-speaker devices.

Now you can trust your headphone mixes to translate reliably to diverse sound systems, reference your tracks on an expertly calibrated monitoring environment, and feel confident about mix depth, stereo imaging, low-end response, reverb amount, and more.

Bring Germano’s famed Studio 1 control room to any pair of headphones with Waves Nx Germano Studios New York, a plug-in that lets you monitor reliably on headphones, so you can make better mixing decisions when working in an acoustically imperfect room or on the road.

Check your mixes with a precise model of Germano’s three sets of studio monitors: the custom-built Exigy S412G four-way system with dual 18″ subwoofer, Germano Acoustics A2s, or the NS10 near-fields. You can also mix for surround with Germano’s custom-built 5.1 system. In addition, the plug-in provides state-of-the-art EQ correction for every major pro headphone model.

Now you can trust your headphone mixes to translate reliably to diverse sound systems, reference your tracks on an expertly calibrated monitoring environment and feel confident about mix depth, stereo imaging, low-end response, reverb amount, and more.

Waves Nx Ocean Way Nashville is a virtual monitoring plug-in that emulates the acoustics and monitoring system of the world-renown Ocean Way Nashville control rooms in immersive spatial audio and over any pair of studio headphones.

With Nx Ocean Way Nashville inserted on the master bus of your session, you get the feel of this stellar speaker environment, allowing you to better judge mix depth, panning, reverb amount, and low-end response. Mixes monitored through the plug-in are more likely to translate accurately to multiple audio systems and platforms, even when working in a headphones-only situation remotely outside your studio.

Supervised and fine-tuned by Ocean Way founder Allen Sides himself, the Nx Ocean Way Nashville plug-in lets you hear your mixes as if experienced through the Ocean Way Audio HR1 and HR5 far-field and near-field monitors. To replicate the immersive experience of hearing audio in the real world, Waves’ pioneering Nx technology for immersive spatial audio uses channel crosstalk, inter-aural delays (ITD), filters (ILD), early reflections, and head motion tracking. The software supports head tracking via your webcam or the dedicated Waves Nx Head Tracker Bluetooth device (available separately) for enhanced realism of the immersive three-dimensional effect.
