H-Series from Waves is a collection of four plug-ins that model the original behavior of various analog audio processors, and boost them with the precision and creative possibilities of digital control.
Waves H-Comp Hybrid Compressor - Dynamics Plug-In (Native/SoundGrid, Download)
H-Comp from Waves is a hybrid compressor plug-in that models the behavior of transformer, tube, and transistor circuits, and combines them with the repeatability of software. The compressor's release performance is specifically modeled on the corresponding analog behavior, while a wet/dry control allows for parallel compression.
Other features include multiple sync functions, an output limiter, and access to the compressor circuitry via an external side-chain for additional compression control.
*For TDM use Accel card required for 192 kHz operation
Waves H-Delay - Hybrid Delay Plug-In (Native/SoundGrid, Download)
H-Delay from Waves is a hybrid delay plug-in that features old school PCM42-style effects like filtering, flanging, and phasing, along with slap-back echo, ping-pong delay, and tempo-sync with modulation. The plug-in has full MIDI support.
An intuitive interface aids in quickly creating an effect using a comprehensive set of controls and includes a tap tempo pad for manually tapping in a tempo. Internal or host-to sync is also available, and the high- and low-pass filters can be linked.
Waves H-EQ Hybrid Equalizer - EQ Plug-In (TDM/Native/SoundGrid, Download)
The H-EQ Hybrid Equalizer from Waves is an equalizer plug-in featuring vintage and modern equalizers inspired by the EQ sections found on the finest British and American analog consoles. Each of the seven bands can function with seven different filter types per band, including an asymmetrical bell filter.
The plug-in allows for applying different EQ settings to the mid and side content of an MS signal, and a flexible real-time frequency spectrum analyzer with multiple display options helps visually reinforce the EQ processing. An intuitive keyboard graphic provides the ability to choose center frequencies by clicking on its virtual keys.
*For TDM use, Accel card required for all sample rates
Waves H-Reverb - Hybrid Reverb Plug-In (Native/SoundGrid, Download)
H-Reverb from Waves is a reverb plug-in that combines convolution reverb with Finite Impulse Response reverberation technology, where the initial impulse response can be enhanced with algorithmic processes. The software includes a library of artist presets from leading mixing engineers, as well as presets inspired by classic vintage and modern hardware reverbs.
The FIR engine allows for shaping and customizing the reverb decay envelope beyond the standard linear forms, resulting in perfectly gated, real reverse, and dense reverb tails that don't muddy up a mix. With advanced analog modeling along with a drive control, the plug-in offers signal behavior previously found only in high-end hardware reverb devices.
