This can be really useful for minimizing the amount of automation needed for things like choirs and background vocals. It is designed to analyze up to 64 channels of audio, and maximize the optimal system gain available. Commonly found in live and broadcast scenarios, Waves brings the Automixer into the mixing and studio world. One of the more technically interesting plugins was the Dugan Automixer. With an absolutely gorgeous interface and endless controls, LFOs and filters, this is an absolute must have. Perhaps my favorite though, is their second synth, the Codex. It features a 16 step arpeggiator and a massive, fully tweakable preset library, this synth can definitely hold its own with the likes of Native Instruments and Logic instruments. This plug-in does a great job emulating a tape machine, all the way to the wow and flutter controls that make it sounds like you can hear the flux falling onto the floor.Įlement is the very first virtual synthesizer from Waves. It is somewhat amusing to see that after all these years of engineers seeking acoustic perfection, that they now desire the means to deconstruct their audio in ways that previously were completely undesirable. Other similarly impressive plug-ins include the J37 Tape Saturation plug-in.
Luke demonstrated an example of one of their plug-ins that emulates older equipment: Waves & Abbey Road presents: REDD. Also on the agenda were plugs in the Artist Collections, such as Chris Lord-Alge Classic Compressors, Jack Joseph Puig Analog Legends and Eddie Kramer Tape, Pubs and Transistors. Luke spoke about some of their plug-in collections, including the SSL 4000 Collection, the API Collection and the V-Series plugins. The Certification Bundle is a great first step into the audio sweetening realm that Waves brings to AU, VST, TDM, RTAS and AAX platforms. Featuring Luke Smith, a product specialist at Waves, we learned about new equipment and plug-ins that Waves has currently available, and gave us a little peak at some of the technology that is coming in the near future.Įach student that goes through the Conservatory becomes a certified Operator of Waves plug-ins, as well as receiving some of the most popular plug-ins, including the C1 Compressor, Renaissance Reverb, and the SuperTap plugins. CRAS has one of the most active student body AES chapters of any engineering school around! From mic builds, to web design seminars, to special events like this week’s Waves Plugins presentation.
