Nx provides great mix reference points and helps me see and hear my mixes from all angles.” In addition, it is essential to have multiple ways of referencing and examining mixes, especially with the crazy number of listening possibilities currently available. I think that we’re on the cusp of a listening revolution that will open up new ways of experiencing sonic magic. Nx puts me in the room(s) of my choice: stereo, surround or ambisonic. I’m trying to do the same with my music, mixes, videos, and Waves plugins. Producers and engineers such as George Martin (Beatles) and Teo Macero (Miles Davis) pushed the envelope in amazing ways with the technology of the day. I have always loved to experiment and embrace new ideas and technologies. With Waves’ Nx, I’m able to get into stereo and 3D space with my trusty Shure 1840s, and I like to use these headphones to fine-tune my mixes. I like the perceptual and proximity effect of the Nx’s flow to experiment and embrace new ideas and technologies. He adds, “My studio reference monitors are an essential element in my work, but I love working on my Shure 1840 headphones because I can get immersed in the sonic experience and minimize outside interruptions or room noises. It’s a very powerful way to expand my workflow.” With Waves Nx, I was able to move confidently into the ‘Wild West’ of surround, in that Nx enables hearing stereo, surround and ambisonic experiences. We also captured an 8k VR 360 video of the session to put the viewer/listener in the middle of the studio, exactly seven feet from Paul, Larry and myself. Our most recent project, Without Compromise, is a live studio session of improvised music compositions which we recorded using vintage mics (including a U47 that belonged to John Lennon).
