Waves Announces SuperRack V15

Waves Audio has announced a new version (V15) of all SuperRack products, introducing full support for immersive audio mixing. They say that, with V15, SuperRack SoundGrid, SuperRack Performer, and SuperRack LiveBox now support 5.1.4, 7.1.4 and 9.1.4 immersive channel configurations, enabling powerful new workflows for cutting-edge immersive live broadcast and concert environments. Here's the full details direct from the company...

Engineers can now craft immersive mixes for live broadcasts, live streamed events, and live concert audio, using Waves' extensive collection of professional plugins. With SuperRack LiveBox or SuperRack Performer, they can also integrate immersive VST3 plugins from other manufacturers.

As part of this update, the Waves Immersive Wrapper plugin is now compatible with all SuperRack products. This means any Waves mono plugin can be transformed into an immersive processor: simply insert Immersive Wrapper into any SuperRack slot, load a mono Waves plugin inside, and mix immersive live audio in real time.

Immersive Wrapper is now also bundled with SuperRack LiveBox, making LiveBox the one-stop solution for immersive mixing in live broadcast and concert settings. SuperRack LiveBox gives sound engineers and creative artists access to all their favorite plugins, all running natively on an all-in-one 2U rack-mountable device, with Dante® or MADI connectivity, and compatible with all major mixing consoles.

Joel Singer, co-founder/Chief Engineer of Music Mix Mobile, comments, "Waves has been an integral part of Music Mix Mobile (M3) since our founding in 2008, and SuperRack has been in our setup as soon as it became available. Its seamless integration with our LAWO consoles enables processing capabilities and recall speeds far beyond what was possible with traditional outboard dynamics and effects. Now, as we expand into immersive broadcasting across our mobile units, flight packs and studios, SuperRack V15 has solved a longstanding challenge: access to a wide array of immersive plugins. Its release now allows us and our guest engineers to deploy favorite dynamics and effects tools within an immersive environment. This marks a major advancement for both M3 and Waves. The ongoing return on investment Waves delivers through its hardware and software ecosystem sets a high benchmark for the industry. It is a standard every company should aspire to."

• 5.1.4, 7.1.4 and 9.1.4 configurations added to SuperRack SoundGrid, Performer, and LiveBox
