Waves Spherix Immersive Compressor and Limiter (Download)

Get punchy and crystal clear immersive mixes in less time with the Spherix Immersive Compressor and Limiter from Waves. Two plug-ins are included, a compressor and a brickwall limiter, both specifically designed to process fixed channel beds in 7.1.4 and 7.1.2 configurations. The software operates as a plug-in running in your DAW on the AAX, AU, Audiosuite, and VST3 platforms, and is compatible with Dolby Atmos.

Mix Faster without Swapping Channels:

Spherix's quick-access controls, available for each channel right below the metering, allow you to tweak parameters quickly across all channels, without tediously swapping one channel to the next.

Tweak Multiple Channels with a Single Touch (Multi-Mono)

Use Control Linking to group multiple channels by speaker zones—tops, surrounds, your choice of three front-wall groupings (L+R, L+R+C, L+R+C+LFE), or all your channels together. Now you can quickly tweak the settings of multiple channels with a single click of the mouse, mixing quickly in Multi Mono while maintaining relative settings between channels.

Process Grouped Speaker Zones Instantly

Use Channel Linking to group your channels based on speaker zones, and instantly compress or limit each entire zone as a bus (rather than as separately processed channels). Compress/limit your tops as one unified zone, your sides and rears as another, your front-wall speakers (L+R, L+R+C, L+R+C+LFE) as yet another zone—with a unified compressor or limiter applied instantly across all channels in the group.

Adjust the Sidechain Reaction You Want

The innovative Weight control—a Spherix exclusive—lets you adjust the balance and content of the side-chain that feeds channel-linked groups. You can choose whether the grouped channels will react more to each individual channel, more to the entire group, or more to all other channels—including any points inbetween.

Meter Multiple Channels Conveniently

Multichannel meters let you instantly view the levels and gain reduction of all channels without having to manually switch channels.
