Hear Your Mix in Chris Lord-Alge's Studio
Waves has extensive experience modeling Chris Lord-Alge's gear, from his classic hardware to his hit-making console. Now, CLA is getting the Nx treatment, enabling you to check your mixes in an immersive, three-dimensional virtual re-creation of the control room at Chris's renowned Mix LA studios. Waves Nx CLA includes an acoustic response of Chris’s Avantone CLA-10 nearfield monitors, coupled with his subwoofer system and his custom-built Ocean Way far-field speakers, along with a boombox model to check how your mixes will translate to small-speaker devices. This plug-in gives you an uncanny awareness of depth, panning, imaging, and frequency balance, while perceiving hitherto concealed sonic nuances, such as reverb tails. Nx CLA is compatible with the Waves Nx Head Tracker, which allows you to "move" within the plug-in's virtual listening space for an authentic, real-world experience. If you're tired of unpleasant surprises when you play back your mixes, Waves Nx CLA is a must. It's the next best thing to mixing in an expertly tuned acoustic environment!

Reference-grade acoustics, wherever you are
Powered by Waves' immersive Nx audio technology, this plug-in precision models the acoustic soundstage of Mix LA's control room, allowing you to use your headphones to make better judgments regarding panning, reverb, mix depth, bottom end, vocal placement, high frequencies, and more. If you collaborate on your productions the way many musicians and producers at Sweetwater do, Nx CLA enables all parties to have the same reference-grade acoustic environment when working on parts and sending them back and forth.
World-class acoustics, re-created for your headphones
Based on precision 360-degree impulse response measurements of Chris Lord-Alge's control room, this plug-in leverages Waves’ pioneering Nx technology for immersive spatial audio.

You (and your collaborators) will enjoy unmatched clarity of imaging, acoustic response that unveils every detail in your music, well-balanced sustain across the full frequency spectrum, and accurate low-end sustain — a hallmark of the world’s premier control rooms.
