With these settings I perceive that the hard panned stereo recording I've tested with so far will place the most far left instrument at an 11-11:30 setting with 9.00 being lateral of left ear and 3.00 being lateral of right ear. In terms of Speaker Position Rotate, I'm very happy with 8-15° rotation to the right, but of course this setting will vary depending on front setting. I'm finding that for me the Speaker Position Front setting of around 20°-30° is what I come back to. I'll come back with more throughout the week.ĭay2: Been traveling for a couple of days but finally some time to listen in peace and quiet again. Now what happens if I rotate the speaker position slightly towards the right side and by doing so saving my left ear a little bit extra? First thing that happens is that I had to readjust the distance between left and right a bit. I've done about an hour of listening per 10° and so far I think that a setting around 20° is what I prefer. It seems to work well to start with.ĭay1: I've quickly realized that a front speaker position of 60° is not going to work for me with any hard panned stereo recording. To avoid clipping I've set the Output Gain on -3.
They keep their position in relation to each other, but the sound projection against where you sit is changed. There's another setting called Rotate in which the speaker pair can be moved around 360°. My left ear is borderline hyperacusis so I'm trying to find a speaker position setting where hard panned stereo sounds "natural" and not flat/dead as I sometimes get from mono yet bearable for my ear(s). I'll work myself towards 60° and stop wherever I can find it bearable. I'm coming from a preference of MONO in which the setting for speaker position is 0° so that's where I started. Speaker position defaults at 60° and Waves recommends that you keep it at that to start with. You can create "distance" between your head and the recording. Room Ambience setting defaults on 17 and I've left it like that for now. You can click on the ? in the top right of the Head Modeling setting to see how you're supposed to measure your head and why.Īfter that you're basically positioning the artist(s) in relation to each other and in relation to where you sit. The different versions (Stereo, 5.1, 7.1) will land on top of each other, so you need to move them around and/or remove them to get the view as seen below. Once you chose "Load plugin", you navigate to the Waves dll file and it loads within the wrapper.
#SONARWORKS VS WAVES NX FULL VERSION#
This is the demo version, I haven't bought the full version yet.
It's needed for Waves NX to work with a dedicated playback software.Īs you can see I've loaded NX into the wrapper and then I'm just sending audio L and audio R through Waves. Here's the Metaplugin wrapper loaded into the jRiver DSP. I'm quite sure I won't stay with the factory defaults, well maybe with Room Ambience, that's one insane setting to play with. I'll keep filling in findings here throughout next week but the initial experience is.holy shit! How the hell can I go back from this?! Opportunity: that this solution is the final solution towards living with my jazz collection without having to mix to mono and sometimes suffer from dull/flat/dead music.
#SONARWORKS VS WAVES NX SOFTWARE#
Risk: that I like it so much that I feel forced to file a divorce with Roon only a few days after the launch of 1.3 which allows for album art/booklets to be viewed within the software - one of the greatest updates in playback software history.
Being forced to always listen to a pure mono mixdown which sometimes causes otherwise very dynamic and lively recordings to fall flat and die. Single side ear death, fatigue, anger, rage, gear abuse and tears.Ģ. My purpose of this test is to first and foremost try to investigate whether a close to mono crossover will allow my ears to enjoy hard panned stereo recordings without:ġ. Second round with same SW setup + ModiMB -> Spdif converter -> Vali2 -> Beyerdynamic T5P. Click to expand.Test notes using Metaplugin + WavesNX + JRiver Media Center with Lynx AES16 - Yggdrasil -> Mjolnir2 -> HD800 (stock balanced cable, no mods).
