Nx Ocean Way Nashville

To create star blends, you need a star blend environment.

The Nx Ocean Way Nashville plugin replicates the acoustics and monitoring system of the stellar Ocean Way Nashville control rooms, on any pair of studio headphones - so you can create better mixes, anywhere, anytime.

Ocean Way Nashville's studio control rooms are the pinnacle of acoustic design and studio monitoring - an audiophile sound engineer's dream. Designed from the ground up by Ocean Way founder Allen Sides, the studios were carefully planned and built to meet his vision of the best recording, mixing and monitoring environment.

Supervised and tuned by himself Allen Sides, the Nx Ocean Way plugin recreates studio acoustics and famous HR1 / HR5 monitors in immersive spatial audio in any headset.

With the Nx Ocean Way Nashville, you can create better mixes, anywhere, anytime, using your favorite reference headphones. Mixes monitored in headphones via the Nx Ocean Way Nashville plug-in are more likely to be accurately translated to multiple audio systems and platforms - without the problems that often plague mixes created in headphones.

The plugin provides faithful representations of the control room's finely tuned acoustics as experienced by the Allen Sides Ocean Way Audio HR1 and HR5 far and near field monitors.

With the Nx Ocean Way Nashville inserted into your session's main bus, you have the ultimate acoustic reference environment on any headphone model. You can better judge the mix depth, panning, reverb amount, bass response and more - all aspects of a mix that are often so difficult to assess in headphones.

The Nx Ocean Way Nashville is powered by Waves' pioneering Nx technology for immersive space audio. Waves 'Nx uses channel crosstalk, interaural delays (ITD), filters (ILD), early reflections and head movement tracking to replicate the immersive experience of listening to real-world audio. All of this is coupled with accurate measurements of the acoustic response in Ocean Way's original control rooms to provide a faithful, out-of-the-head three-dimensional representation of the original experience.

Developed by Waves Audio at In collaboration with Ocean Way Nashville Studios at Belmont University and Ocean Way Audio, Nx Ocean Way Nashville represents a technological breakthrough in accurate 3D spatial audio modeling of a real acoustic environment.

The Nx Ocean Way Nashville supports head tracking - via your webcam or dedicated Waves Nx Head Tracker Bluetooth device - for enhanced realism of the immersive three-dimensional effect.
