Waves Nx was reviewed by Adrian Serban. Load comments. Waves Nx 1. Aside from the typical reverb controls attack and release, pre-delay, size, wet and dry signal , there are modules for the decay envelope, LFO, input echoes, output echoes, modulation, and EQ and dynamics.
This type of technology and flexibility in a reverb plugin is something unheard of until now. By putting together classic reverb concepts with modern features and controls, H-Reverb has become one of the ultimate modern reverb plugins from Waves. Similar to the C4 Multiband Compressor from Waves, the C6 is an even better model of the well-loved C4 with a few more exciting features. The C6 is a popular favorite among mix engineers and is not a plugin to pass up.
The C6 Multiband Compressor is great for expanding, compressing, limiting, and fixing problems that span through a whole frequency band, but can also be awesome for de-essing, controlling plosives, and fixing problem frequencies with surgical precision. The C6 has six bands, four normal crossover bands and two floating bands for high and low shelving and cutting. With all that it can do, the C6 is a complete powerhouse and that makes it one of the best Waves plugins for vocals, but it is also fantastic on instruments too.
The C6 has a dynamic EQ and the sidechain feature is specific to each band, so if you only want to control a certain portion of frequencies for example control the higher frequencies on the beginning of a snare drum hit and leave the low end untouched , it is very easy to do that.
I like to slap the C6 on vocals, drums, and guitars to control any harsh frequencies I find that are a nuisance to my ears. The C6 is really great at controlling and shaping sounds while fixing very specific frequency problems. NLS is essentially three consoles coming together as one plugin. Waves modeled over channels over all three consoles to fully capture the magical color, character, and behavior of each input and buss amp.
NLS Non-Linear Summer has a ton of richness, depth, and a ton of harmonic qualities that make it seem like you have used the physical hardware of the consoles themselves to record and mix.
You can turn the microphone on and off and also add analog noise to bring even more character to the signal. The Fazioli F is an Italian piano made with the same type of wood that Antonio Stradivari made his famous violins from.
The tone wood gives the piano a deep bass, rich resonance, and a bright, clear tone that make it extremely famed. The samples of the Fazioli F were recorded at Metropolis Studios with 8 different pairs of microphones from the Neumann U 87 to the Shure SM57 and preamps and converters of the highest-quality, so you are getting the best sound reproduction possible. The Grand Rhapsody is great for a variety of genres, from pop to electronic to jazz.
Although I have not used this piano plugin much myself, it is one that deserves a lot more attention than it gets. It is incredibly warm and rich and just sounds absolutely beautiful. Make sure you check out our picks for the best piano VST plugins in The CLA is another best-selling compressor bundle that also has a limiter feature.
As per usual, on both models of the compressor, you get your typical attack and release knobs, and your input and output controls. Because of this, the obvious go-to instruments for this plugin to be used with are drums and percussive instruments, but the CLA is also great for vocals and guitar. Using this compressor is an absolute dream, and the different models carry a slightly different sonic character, so you will find that there is some pleasing coloration when using them.
With the capability of having a super-fast attack and smooth release, as well as rich preamp distortion modeling, the CLA is a prized plugin that every producer should have in their arsenal. Kramer Master Tape is a plugin modeled on a reel-to-reel tape machine, designed with help from Eddie Kramer. Kramer Master Tape gives your songs a richness and warmth through real analog tape saturation and breathes new life into what was previously boring and static.
The Kramer Master Tape is ideal for rock, dance, and many other genres and comes with built-in slap and feedback delay to help facilitate that. Whether you are using it for recording, mixing, or mastering the Kramer Master Tape plugin sounds great no matter the application. I like to use it with vocals and piano to give them a slightly wobbly effect and add the perfect amount of saturation to keep them sounding rich and full if the mix is busy and they get lost in it.
Tape saturation is a plugin that is starting to become more popular, and if you like the vintage sound it adds and the full, warm quality it brings to recordings, get Kramer Master Tape and see how it holds up against modern tape saturation. Kramer Master Tape does not disappoint. The CLA-2A is a compressor that was modeled on a legendary tube compressor. As far as I know, this is the only compression plugin by Waves that has this quality to it. The CLA-2A accurately reproduces the smooth, frequency dependent behaviors that the tube compressor also had, which make it a popular choice for mixing vocals, guitar, and bass.
While the plugin is extremely nice-sounding when used on guitar and bass, it really shines on vocals, especially on slow songs. Because of its smooth approach to signal processing, vocals sound buttery and rich while being subtly controlled by the compression. In comparison to other compressors, the CLA-2A does not color the signal , which is something that is a benefit if you are already using a channel strip that adds color or saturation to the signal.
The interface is ridiculously easy to navigate through, as it has only two knobs: one for gain and another for peak reduction. There is also a sidechain frequency filter in the limiter side of this compressor, which has the same gain and peak reduction controls as the compressor side does.
This brilliant plugin comes with a bunch of presets to get you started on your CLA-2A journey, one that you will greatly enjoy. This legendary console was used on records from the Beatles and Pink Floyd. Along with the preamp and tone controls, the plugin offers routing options rather than allowing you to move the modules around to where you need them in the signal chain.
Modern features have been added to some of the modules to allow for more modern mixing techniques including a high pass filter on the compressor sidechain, and a drive control.
There is little to no latency on the channel strip, so you can easily use it for live performances as well as studio use without timing problems occurring. The EMI TG gives your songs a crisp, bright, and rich sound just like the original console no matter what it is being used for, and the unforgettable tone delivered by Abbey Road Studios is sure to turn heads.
The NS1 Noise Suppressor is a wickedly intuitive plugin that intelligently differentiates between noise, dialog, and musical qualities. NS1 analyzes your input audio signal and eliminates background noise while bringing dialog, singing, or an instrument forward in the signal. The interface is super easy to navigate as it only has one slider to remove noise. NS1 Noise Suppressor does not work like a noise gate, although if your background noise is loud enough and your slider is down quite a ways, you will get a gate-like effect, which will likely mess up your main audio signal.
NS1 is great for many uses, whether you are doing a quick noise suppression fix or taking your time with it and using it delicately. If you play guitar, you have almost definitely heard of Paul Reed Smith. In the day and age where amp and cabinet modeling is becoming more and more popular, Waves was right on trend and created a plugin to satisfy guitarists into digital amp and cab modeling for their guitars.
With PRS SuperModels, you get outstanding tones right out of the box, and the amp models are insanely accurate to the real hardware amps. Waves modeled every piece of circuitry and every tube to get every last detail of the sound right. The Paul Reed Smith Archon amp is ideal for bright, lush cleans or overdrive.
If you really push the limits of the amp, you get a great sounding distortion out of it. The gain on it is incredibly lush, which makes the Archon perfect for playing lead or a crunchy rhythm while also supplying a pristine clean channel for all genres. You can get a really huge, wide sound out of this amp that sounds amazing to the ears without having to do much tweaking.
The Paul Reed Smith Dallas is modeled after an all tube design that gives out sounds from classic American amps with reverb. It is easily the most classic-sounding amp that lets you play huge cleans and plenty of overdriven tones with reverb that sounds natural no matter how far you push it.
The lows are very solid and do not get too muddy, the highs are crisp, and the midrange tones of this amp are rich and full-sounding. The plugin also has a latency fix technology that solves any latency issues between the signal coming from your guitar and the signal reaching the cabinet.
The perceived volume is balanced when using multiple cabinets. You do not have to worry about clicking around in the plugin and instead you can just play, either in your DAW or in standalone mode. Even though the best Waves plugins debate is subjective based on things like your needs and the genre of music you are making or producing, we all know one thing: that Waves VSTs are easily some of the absolute best.
I strongly recommend that you go to the Waves website and take a look at what they have to offer there. They may be a bit expensive but they have sales a lot of the time, and really none of their plugins are worth passing up. Check with your IT support person.
