CLA MixHub and MixDown

CLA’s sound and workflow — in a plug-in!

Waves CLA MixHub takes Chris Lord-Alge’s sound and workflow and packs them into a single plug-in. It will transform the way you mix, placing 64 tracks squarely within view — in easy-to-digest 8-channel groupings — all from a single plug-in window. The channel strips in CLA MixHub were modeled directly from Chris’s personal console and will infuse your projects with the same rich analog sound that’s graced his Grammy-winning mixes. CLA MixHub pushes the envelope of in-the-box mixing. You’ll gain a better understanding of how one track’s processing affects an entire mix. Beyond that, you’ll find yourself mixing musically and effortlessly, with a swift, streamlined workflow that leads to better-sounding results.

Mix through CLA’s Master Bus

Chris Lord-Alge has thousands of chart-topping mixes under his belt. How'd you like to mix through his master bus? With CLA MixDown, you can! Created in collaboration with the man himself, this easy-to-use mix bus plug-in includes four faders for adding the final professional polish to your tracks. Inject your mixes with Chris's trademark punch, smoothness, and in-your-face character using two flavors of bus compression, console-like overdrive, and perfectly tailored EQ curves. There are countless ways to use this plug-in, but the engineers at Sweetwater recommend inserting it when you first start working on a mix — mixing through it.
