Waves Audio has announced the latest expanson to its commercial audio line with the introduction of the CA3000-MX, a new install-ready audio mixer and processing engine designed to deliver quality sound in a range of single-room and multi-zone AV installation applications, and it also offers the option to expand processing by adding plugins from the Waves catalogue.
The CA3000-MX, compatible with standard ASIO audio or Dante network configurations, is housed in a compact half-width 2U rack-mount chassis and couples a digital audio processing engine with an install-ready version of the Waves eMotion LV1 mixer in supporting up to 32 stereo inputs, 24 stereo aux mix outputs plus L/R/C/M outs, and a 12 x 8 stereo matrix. It is designed to integrate easily with standard ASIO audio device drivers or with Dante Virtual Soundcard (DVS) audio networking.
Integrators can add any desired Waves plugins to the CA3000-MX to customize the processing to their specific needs, including addressing issues with feedback suppression, dynamics control, source levelling, noise reduction, acoustic response, broadcast streaming optimization, and more.
Installations that require automatic mixing of multiple live microphones (such as corporate and government discussion panels), can also add the Waves Dugan Speech plugin as an optional purchase. Powered by Dan Dugan’s patented voice-activated process, Dugan Speech controls the gains of multiple microphones automatically and in real-time, reducing noise, feedback and comb filtering from adjacent microphones.
End-users can control preconfigured, customized audio settings using the Waves mRecall audio scene recall app, to deliver superior sound quality to any commercial space. Also new are updated versions of the Waves CA1000 and CA2000 commercial audio DSP engines that now offer more integration options: in addition to Dante compatibility, they are now also ASIO-compatible. In addition, users can now control customized CA1000 and CA2000 settings remotely with the Waves mRecall Audio Scene & Snapshot App.
