Get free updates and new plug-ins as soon as they're released
With Waves Creative Access Essential, you'll always be up to date with the latest version of the plug-ins included with your subscription. Here at Sweetwater, we appreciate how this facilitates seamless collaborations with other Waves users, since it ensures that all parties will be producing and mixing with the same plug-in versions.

Waves StudioVerse: your one-way ticket to killer plug-in chains
Your Waves Creative Access Essential subscription includes a membership to StudioVerse, the AI-powered community for mixing chains. StudioVerse includes thousands of mix-ready plug-in chains, created by hundreds of industry-leading producers and mixers, such as Young Guru, Chris Lord-Alge, and Jacquire King. And it's a breeze to use. Simply hit the Scan Audio button and StudioVerse's AI-fueled machine-learning engine will listen to your track and recommend an appropriate effects chain based on your song's unique sonic fingerprint. You get up to eight macros for easy tweaking, and you can do a complete deep dive to learn how the pros create their chains. And, of course, you can tweak or swap plug-ins to your heart's content to create your own custom chains.
Take the entire Waves plug-in catalog for a spin
By default, Waves Creative Access Essential installs all the company's plug-in on your machine. The plug-ins not included with your subscription will run in demo mode, which introduces periodic audio mutes, but are otherwise fully functional. This allows you to evaluate new plug-ins with zero time limitations and to experiment with the thousands of plug-in chains included in Waves StudioVerse. Is your plug-in list too crowded? No problem. You can hide the demo plug-ins using Waves StudioRack (the demo plug-ins will be indicated in italics).
