3D Audio on Any Headphones

WHAT IS WAVES Nx

Today’s entertainment is on a mission to recreate the real world. Just as VR makes us feel like we are walking in a 3D environment, 3D audio recreates real-world sound in a way that surrounds you with the music, the movie or the game.

Waves Nx finally delivers this lifelike experience on YOUR headphones, turning them into a high-end 360° surround sound system and enabling you to experience your favorite movies, music and games with real-world 3D sound.

FOR DEVICE MAKERS

Waves Nx on Speakers: Beyond the Edge

With Waves Nx Speakers, the sound of any music, movie, or game is transformed into multi-dimensional audio that provides listeners with astonishing panoramic depth and width. The 2020 Dell XPS 15" and 17" are the first-ever laptops featuring Nx 3D audio on speakers tuned by multi-Grammy AWARD® winning producer, Jack Joseph Puig.

Waves Nx 3D Audio on Earbuds: Augmented Sound Reality

With Nx moving reference headtracking, 3D sound is layered on top of the real world. Sounds are positioned in real space, adding a sense of presence that you can feel. No matter which direction you move, you are physically present in the music, the movie, or the game. The sound isn't locked between your ears. You are in the sound.
