Waves Audio Uses Nx Technology to Recreate Abbey Road Studio 3 Room Emulation

Waves Audio introduced the Abbey Road Studio 3 plugin, created in collaboration with Abbey Road Studios. Using its Waves Nx 3D audio binaural encoding technology to emulate the acoustics of a space, the new plug-in allows anyone to work with headphones, as if it was inside the Abbey Road Studio 3 Control Room. For music producers, this means the ability to hear the music in the renowned studio, with an emulation of the studio's nearfield stereo monitors, 5.1 or 7.1 setups.

Subwoofer Placement In Non-Rectangular Rooms

This article examines the problem of subwoofer placement in odd-shaped rooms, exploring corner locations of subwoofers and some pros and cons of single-woofer versus dual-woofer systems for a given placement within a listening room. In the article, the author extends the analysis and actually generates the “room contribution” curves for a non-rectangular room. This article was originally published in audioXpress, September 2002.

R&D Stories: Curing the Open Office Noise Epidemic… With Nature?

Noise distraction is the number one complaint for open plan office workers according to a recent study from Oxford Economics. Robert Manassero provides a fascinating account of how, after experiencing its own challenges with noise in an open office, Plantronics tested and developed its own solution to noise and distraction using biophilic acoustics or acoustics based on elements from nature. This article was originally published in audioXpress, August 2018.
