SOUND ON SOUND
Atlas Reverb promises to give vocals, drums, guitars, synths and even full mixes a sense of depth and dimension that feels connected to the record rather than simply sounding like it's been applied over the top of it.
Waves V17 introduces a range of new features and improvements, including a completely redesigned preset management system, new live sound and post-production enhancements, and Mix Unlock, a premium stem-separation feature within StudioVerse.
Waves have recently released an update that extends their vocal-alignment plug-in’s capabilities to all DAWs — even those without ARA support.
The latest addition to Waves’ Magma series has arrived, kitting users out with “a transformative and expressive dynamics tool designed to shape musical tension and feel in real time”.
InTrigger is said to be capable of ‘learning’ a drum track with a single click, while ensuring samples aren’t erroneously triggered by the likes of ghost notes and bleed.
With personalised spectral target curves, static and dynamic options, and a handy side‑chain function, Curves AQ’s tonal shaping tools are intended for engineers of all skill levels.
Along with compatibility with the latest operating systems and DAW versions, the refreshed Waves collection benefits from a number of new features designed to help users work more efficiency and streamline their mixing process.
Curves AQ relies on Waves' AI Spectral Targeting Technology, and is capable of generating a choice of custom EQ settings tailored to the source material.
This new ARA2 plug‑in aims to make aligning doubles and backing vocal stacks a breeze.
Already movers and shakers in Melbourne/Naarm’s musical underground, producer Kuya Neil and rapper Teether began collaborating in late 2020.
