Since its release, the Nx Virtual Mix Room plugin has won unanimous acclaim. In January, Waves successfully launched the first product in the Nx family – the Nx Virtual Mix Room plugin, a “virtual monitoring” tool that recreates on headphones the ideal acoustics of a high-end mix room, allowing audio professionals to make better mixing and recording decisions on headphones. Waves Nx tracks the actual movements of the user’s head, rendering the slightest nuances that create a real, dynamic and variable sensory experience – appropriately positioning the audio in the left and right headphones to simulate movement through a three-dimensional audio space. One of the ways it does this is by tracking the user’s head position and positioning the sound in the user’s headphones to match the way the user would hear it in the real world. Waves Nx bridges the gap by recreating, on headphones, the same auditory cues that reach our ears in the real world. The perception of sound over headphones is a completely different experience. It combines the interactions between acoustic sound waves and a room or space, the interaction between the sound waves and the physical movement of our head and ears, the reaction of our middle and inner ear and the audio nerve, and finally our brain’s cognition and interpretation of the acoustic landscape. The perception of spatial sound is a complex phenomenon. For over two decades, Waves Audio has pioneered the development of psychoacoustic signal processing algorithms that leverage cutting-edge knowledge of human hearing and perception in order to radically improve perceived sound quality. Waves Audio is the recipient of a Technical GRAMMY® Award and the world-leading developer of audio DSP technologies. To join the Kickstarter campaign, please visit.
The campaign is a way for audio enthusiasts to grab an early stake in this revolutionary set of tools. Now Waves is reaching out to the audio community to get involved via a Kickstarter campaign beginning June 22. The possibilities are endless, and Waves has decided to put significant R&D emphasis on Nx to further develop the technology. With Waves Nx, music, movies and games are heard in a revolutionary way as they take on a new dimension of immersive 3D reality – and it all happens inside the headphones you already own. Waves Nx lets users hear the same natural depth, natural reflections, and panoramic imaging heard from speakers in a physical room, but on headphones.
Earlier this year, Waves Audio announced Nx, a groundbreaking software technology that applies panoramic audio imaging to stereo headphones, opening the door to applications in virtual reality, augmented reality, 3D mixing and much more.
