Waves Audio has announced that it is now shipping the Nx Virtual Studio Collection, a new plugin bundle designed to give users virtual access to the acoustics and monitoring systems of top mixing rooms on any pair of stereo headphones.
The collection provides acoustic models of multiple world-class studios, including Ocean Way Nashville, Chris Lord-Alge’s Mix LA, Germano Studios New York (originally The Hit Factory), and the original Waves Nx Virtual Mix Room to fine-tune their mixes in acoustically superior mixing environments.
Users can make more informed decisions about balance, stereo image and panning, mix depth, low-end response, reverb usage and more, and gain reliable perspective as they cross-check their mixes in trustworthy acoustic reference environments.
Each Nx plugin comes with several monitoring systems from the original studios, emulating the acoustic response of studio classics that include NS10s, high-end Ocean Way and Exigy monitors, and more for a total of four studios and 12 stereo and surround monitoring systems.
All Nx plugins are powered by Waves Nx technology for immersive spatial audio. Nx uses channel crosstalk, inter-aural delays (ITD), filters (ILD), early reflections, and head motion tracking to replicate the immersive experience of hearing audio in the real world. All these are coupled with measurements of the actual studios to help deliver a faithful three-dimensional representation of the original acoustic experiences.
