One particular aspect of mixing that has steadily grown into a realm of its own is mixing with headphones. Basically, any producer at some point has to revert to mixing with headphones, either temporarily or permanently. Though, those taking that long and narrow road know very well the headaches in attempting a headphone mix that translates well on speakers.
For them, Waves now introduces the Nx Ocean Way Nashville plugin, and offers it at a considerable 82% discount in their shop by using their coupon code CREATE40. Enter this code at checkout and receive this plugin for only $34.99 instead of $199 for a limited time.
But what is it?
As its name already eludes, the Nx Ocean Way Nashville emulates the Ocean Way Nashville control rooms over your studio headphones to make your mixes translate better. Because according to Waves, “to create stellar mixes, you need a stellar environment”.
In the kingdom of studio monitoring and acoustics, the studio control rooms of Ocean Way Nashville take the lead, offering an ultimate recording, mixing and monitoring environment from the mind of Allen Sides himself.
It recreates the studio’s acoustics and famed HR1/HR5 monitors over any headphones, delivered in an immersive experience of spatial audio thanks to Waves’ Nx technology, using channel crosstalk, inter-aural delays (ITD), filters (ILD), early reflections, and head motion tracking to recreate the experience of hearing audio in the real world. Coupled with precision measurements of the original Ocean Way control rooms, a real three-dimensional “out-of-head” experience is shaped from the original audio.
