• eMO D5 Dynamics - Dynamics Processors Plug-In (Native/SoundGrid, Download) eMO D5 Dynamics from Waves is a plug-in featuring a gate, leveler, deEsser, compressor, and limiter, all in one easy-to-use interface. The 5-in-1 multi-dynamics use the company's Parallel Detection technology, where each of the five processors responds to the original signal, and to each of the other processed signals simultaneously. This provides instant control over the total dynamic change introduced by the different processors, ensuring that the final sound achieves maximum clarity without over-compression.
  
  The plug-in also provides a combined gain-reduction meter for the leveler, compressor and limiter, making it even easier to monitor and control levels. The single-page GUI allows for setting up a dynamically balanced mix with maximum efficiency, saving time by not having to open and tweak different dynamic processors. With its zero latency and low CPU consumption, the plug-in is equally useful for both live and studio engineers.
  • Five dynamics processors in one plug-in with parallel detection
  • Gate and compressor with dedicated high-/low-pass filters and an external sidechain option
  • Limiter with zero latency and sharp attack
  • DeEsser with pre-/post-compressor routing
  • C-weighted leveler with an adjustable range
  • Combined gain-reduction meter for the leveler, compressor, and limiter
  • Zero latency
  • Low CPU consumption
  • Fully compatible with touchscreens
  • Can be used on its own, or as part of the eMotion LV1 live mixer channel strip
  • Up to 24-bit/96 kHz resolution
  • Mono and stereo components
  • SoundGrid license compatible with MultiRack Native, MultiRack SoundGrid, StudioRack Native, StudioRack SoundGrid, eMotion ST Mixer, and eMotion LV1 Mixer
• MultiRack SoundGrid Software for Front Of House and Monitor Engineers (Native License Included, Download) Waves MultiRack SoundGrid is software that enables you to use Waves plug-ins and some third-party plug-ins in a concert setting. It allows you to run plug-ins at latencies low enough to meet the demanding needs of front-of-house audio engineers in live-sound scenarios.Essentially, the software behaves like a hardware rack, letting you use effects and processors in mono, stereo, or mono-to-stereo configurations. You can insert such effects directly onto a track, run them in parallel, or even side-chain the effect of one track to another’s output. In MultiRack, each rack can house up to eight plug-ins, and you can use up to 64 software racks, with 128 channels of I/O, at any one time.Where MultiRack excels is in giving you the benefits of well-regarded software in a live-sound context. Instead of necessitating space-consuming, often-expensive hardware with all the maintenance such a system would necessitate, MultiRack enables you to access revered Waves plug-ins for your live gig. With such a setup comes faster setup times as well as instant recall of effects for more efficiency in these mission-critical situations.Waves MultiRack SoundGrid comes with a native license, so you can run it from your laptop and interface (so long as these devices support ASIO or Core Audio drivers). In that scenario, however, you’re a bit hamstrung by the CPU limit of your particular computer. When paired with a SoundGrid server, you’ll have more processing power at your disposal, and more leeway to load more plug-ins.Waves MultiRack requires proprietary hardware to operate with consoles, but such hardware exists for Yamaha, Allen & Heath, DigiCo, and MADI-enabled consoles. Once all the pieces to the puzzle are procured, setup is relatively straightforward, giving you plenty of time for mixing and balancing the sound of the gig. Note: Please note: To run this software in SoundGrid mode, you must have both a SoundGrid server and a SoundGrid-enabled interface.
