I would say they get used on most, if not all of the sessions for the mixing services I provide for my clients These audio plugins are meant to be my bread and butter in a mix session and I can always add texture or colour with other tools. The Waves Audio plugins I mentioned in this article, I feel, are the core of my sound even though they aren’t the flashy “cool” sounding plugins. Like I mentioned earlier, I like to keep things pretty simple and despite how some of my sessions look, I really am a simpleton at heart. Another cool trick is to set up a DeEsser and use it on hi hats.

I just set it up like a normal DeEsser and is usually near the end of my chain.

Even before I throw this plugin on, I like to use the clip gain as my first option for fixing the Ess’s and it compliments the Waves DeEsser nicely.

It’s the last line of defense in handling the sibilance. I like to use a combination of techniques to handle the Ess’s and this is sort of like a limiter for the ess’s. I tend not to use this plugin at face value like most people would.

I’m not sure but if you know what you are doing, this Waves DeEsser works really well. I think maybe because the sound of the plugin is a kin to the L-1 and the RComp that I feel comfortable with it. This is one of the earliest plugin DeEssers to see the light of day and for some reason it just sounds good to me. There are plenty of other companies out there offering some great sounding plugins. Remember that Waves is just one company that offers great tools for mixing. I use plugins from other companies like Izotope, Slate and even the good old stock plugins from Avid. I really try to keep things simple so I’m focused more on the music and less on the gear.īefore I get into the top 5 Waves plugins I use, I would mention that I don’t only use Waves Audio products in my mixes. Most, if not all of them, have a very limited amount of controls, which really talks to my mixing style. Some of these Waves plugins obviously get used more than others but I would say a good portion of my sound comes from these 5 (besides my ears of course).Īnother interesting thing to mention is that all of the plugins, listed in this article, are fairly simple to use.

At this point I’m more than used to how they sound so they are hard to replace. These plugins make a difference in my mixes and just seem to work whenever I put them on a track. These 5 plugins I would say get used on at least 95% of my mixes. I was going through my Waves plugin library the other day and I was surprised because there’s really only a handful that I use most of the time.
