#Waves nx ocean way review full#

Work at full levels at home at any time, with very little headphone fatigue, without annoying the neighbours or roommates. I was totally sceptical, it seemed like a gimmick, until I tried it. What the Waves stuff, with the tracker, does well that none of the others do as elegantly, is it measures the position and movement of your head and keeps the image in place, maintaining the feel and relative comfort of working with speakers. Plus there are other ways of better compensating for your headphones to make them more ‘transparent’. It also takes your headphones into consideration, if they are supported. I have found this useful with AR3 when working remotely, on the laptop, or in less than ideal temporary situations. This also allows the room to travel with you though. (Don't soil yourself with such illegitimate bastard plugin filth. If you already have 24hr access to a world class room and you're not even curious about these spaces, then you don't need it. Maybe one that is less flawed than the one you would otherwise use. The entire point is that you have access to the sonic character of the studio monitors and the room. The technology is designed to put you 'in the room', so to speak.

To me, it's no more ridiculous than getting second reference monitor pair when you already have one? Or listening to a mix in different places to get different perspectives. You're just probably not the target market. ‘Why on earth would you?’, clearly you wouldn't. If you wanna double down on the snootiness, feel free of course, but the idea is far from utterly ridiculous.

You don't have to argue, it's not that serious an issue. Click to expand.I absolutely love the snobbery in some of these threads.
