Waves Audio, a Knoxville-based developer of professional audio signal processing technologies and plugins, is now shipping Clarix LB: an AI-powered noise reduction plugin for voice.


The product is designed to clean ambient noise in real-time broadcast environments.

Clarix LB is being marketed as ideal for on-location anchors, reporters, live-streamed worship services, or any live voice capture scenario.

“With Waves’ new Clarix LB, engineers can now experience instant ambient noise cleanup for live broadcast,” the company says. Clarix LB is compatible with the Waves SoundGrid processing platform as well as the SuperRack LiveBox, making it suited for real-time live broadcast workflows. The plugin can run on any major mixing console via Waves SuperRack SoundGrid and SuperRack Performer, or SoundGrid Rack for VENUE, or on the Waves eMotion LV1 (including the LV1 Classic mixing console).


Key features include:

  • AI engine powered by Technology and Engineering Emmy®-winning Waves Neural Networks
  • SoundGrid-compatible for use in Waves SuperRack and eMotion LV1
  • Choose the exact voice/noise balance with a single knob
  • Large UI, ideal for easy broadcast control
  • Up to 96 kHz sample rate
  • 47 ms latency
  • “Double” analysis plus width control for stereo sources
  • Requires Waves Titan server for real-time SoundGrid processing

Clarix LB has been added to the Waves Ultimate plugin subscription, which includes the Waves plugin catalog (over 240 plugins) as monthly or annual subscriptions.

It is also available for purchase as a separate plugin (perpetual license).
