Get to know them!

If you want to make sure that your listeners hear deep and full bass from your projects, regardless of the speakers they're listening on, then you need the Waves MaxxBass bass enhancement plug-in. This easy-to-use processor creates the effect of low bass frequencies by creating harmonics that are related to your audio's fundamental frequencies. This trick of psycho-acoustics makes you perceive powerful low bass without those low frequencies actually being present - without eating up the headroom of your mix! Your mixes will translate to small-speaker systems and retain their punch and depth. Waves MaxxBass is also a must-have tool that Sweetwater recommends for producers, sound designers and post production engineers. For deep, natural sounding bass that can be heard on the smallest of speaker systems, check out Waves MaxxBass.

Enhance bass without upsetting your mix

MaxxBass technology precisely calculates the overtones of the missing fundamentals, then adds them back into the mix. As these overtones are within the frequency range of the speaker, they are reproduced, you hear them, and your brain "fills in" the missing fundamentals. Interestingly, Waves' algorithm creates the perception of fat, beefy bass without adding any bass frequencies. MaxxBass is, in effect, allowing you to "hear" bass frequencies lower than those actually being reproduced. Magic? No, it's just MaxxBass exploiting a well-known psychoacoustic phenomenon to give you fat bottom bass.

The estimated required monthly payment shown which excludes taxes and delivery equals the amount financed divided by the number of months in the promo period, rounded up to the next cent. During the last month(s) of the promo period the required monthly payment may be reduced due to this rounding. These payments apply only with the financing offer shown. If you make these payments by the due date each month, you should pay off this amount financed within the promo period, if it is the only balance you are paying off. If you have other balances on your account, this payment will be added to any other minimum monthly payments.
