Interface for Waves SuperRack Native
Waves Audio, a leading developer of professional audio signal processing technologies and a leading maker of audio plugins for mixing, music production, mastering, sound design, broadcast, post-production and live sound, announces Native processing support for Waves SuperRack, the next generation of plugin processing software for live sound and broadcast engineers.
The Waves SuperRack live plugin rack now supports Native processing. Native mode lets users run Waves plugins on the CPU power of a Windows/Mac computer, using any ASIO/Core Audio interface, without a SoundGrid server connected.
SuperRack Native & Dugan Automixer for Corporate AV Installations:
SuperRack Native and Waves Dugan Automixer optimize mixing of multiple mics in live speaking and corporate forum installations. The Dugan Automixer plugin, automatically controls the gains of multiple mics in real time to maintain a consistent output level across all mic channels and reduce feedback, noise, and comb filtering effects from adjacent microphones. This enables matched crossfades between each speaker, without signal compression or unwanted sonic artifacts caused by noise gates.

Waves SuperRack Native includes a deep integration with Dugan Automixer for AV installations
This setup is designed for a wide range of AV installations, including conference rooms, corporate presentation theaters, live news panels, talk shows, and any scenario involving scripted or non-scripted dialog between multiple speakers.
Waves SuperRack is a plugin rack which runs both Native and SoundGrid processing, lets users run up to 128 audio channels through multiple instances of Waves plugins with near-zero latency and offers customization options designed to make it easy for users to tailor the application to their very own mixing workflow.
SuperRack is a natural extension of a mixing console, designed from the ground up for quick setup time, flexible touch-friendly workspace and unlimited workflow customization. FOH, monitor, broadcast, and AV engineers can now run plugins in real time, customize their workspace with floating windows, set extended-scope snapshots, and run any live show with more speed and confidence.
