MaxxBass (Native) from Waves is a plug-in for enhancing the perceived loudness of the bass content in an audio source.

The plug-in also allows smaller speakers to appear to deliver a stronger and lower bass signal without damaging the smaller cones inside the speakers. The technology has been used to enhance the bass on many hit records, and in major motion pictures to deliver earth shattering effects.
