![]() ![]() Need to spend hours at a time mixing on headphones? By delivering the natural listening experience of a physical room, Waves Nx makes the headphone experience comfortable and ear-friendly over long periods of time. By letting you hear on headphones the same natural depth and stereo spread you would be hearing on external monitors, Waves Nx puts an end to constant cross-referencing between the two. Waves Nx finally bridges the gap between monitoring on speakers and monitoring on headphones: no longer do you have to worry that what you’ve mixed on headphones will sound different once you switch to speakers. This way, you can hear all the elements of your mix accurately laid out in space, just as you would in the sweet spot of a beautiful-sounding room. Waves Nx “unmasks” your headphone sound, letting you hear everything with real-world dimension, rather than flat in your head. Want to turn your headphones into a more reliable mixing and monitoring tool? Here are just some of the advantages Waves Nx has to offer: You can now enjoy all the advantages of headphones – portability, affordability, privacy – with all the acoustic benefits of a great-sounding, fully professional mixing facility. Powered by Waves’ groundbreaking Nx technology, this plugin lets you hear, on headphones, the same natural depth, natural reflections, and panoramic stereo image you would be hearing from speakers in an actual, physical room. Waves Nx gives you the optimal acoustics of a great mix room – right inside your headphones. I completely understand that no single listening apparatus represents what will be heard through all of them, I just need something that is getting a feel for DAW production the class is less about perfectly polished final masters and more about workflow, how DAW works and why, technique and the mix/ master is simply something that comes out of that.Waves Audio (Booth 6620, Hall A), a leading provider of digital signal processing solutions, introduces Waves Nx, a Virtual Mix Room plugin that puts you in the sweet spot – everywhere you go. ![]() The end result was far from perfect, but it was an awesome experience.Īll the work was done with some very nice high-end monitors, but it was stressed that we bounce it at a couple different stages from raw tracks to various stages of mixdown so we could listen and compare what we heard in the studio versus iPhone earbuds, headphones, iPad speakers, children's toys, car stereos. Our group had to do everything from selecting mics, to running ProTools, and then doing a mix of the track. Last semester, I took a recording class we were tasked with (along with all of the in-classroom learning about psychoacoustics, studio design, and how digital audio works) recording one song in the school professional grade studio. I know I'm standing at the edge of a very large chasm with many ways to cross it. And if you have done this for a long long time and get experienced, you can mix with the headphones you "learnt" / know by heart.Ĭlick to expand.Thanks for the info. You have to try and error, you have to learn what not to do with a mix by listening to the result on different speakers in different rooms. This will not happen and it is not the fault of the headphones you use that it doesn't happen. You will never ever own a pair of headphones and as soon as a mix seems to sound right through them it will magically translate to every possible real world situation (Hifis, car-hifis, ipads, smartphone earbuds, small speakers, large speakers etc.) and sounds good. ![]() But apart from specific models people prefer (as long as they are Sennheisers, AKGs, Beyerdynamics, Focals etc.) the most important part is: you have to LEARN them. From time to time you'll find them a bit cheaper at Massdrop. I personally think the ATHs have too much low end and prefer AKGs like the 701. If they are for mixing not tracking, stay away from closed headphones. ![]()
