Waves Audio is now shipping the Waves Cobalt Saphira plugin, an advanced harmonics shaping tool that lets you give your mixes analog musicality, depth and “glue” by adding harmonics to your tracks and separately shaping the various qualities of the harmonics you are adding.
Waves Cobalt Saphira gives you digital control over different aspects of your harmonics:
—Edge and Warmth – for separately controlling and balancing even and odd harmonics
—4-band EQ – for separately shaping the frequency spectrum of each type of harmonics
—Harmonics modes – seven different modes, with graphical representation so you can see the changes in harmonic structure
—Tape – five tape speeds for adding wow-and-flutter modulation in order to give your tracks extra musicality and depth
Cobalt Saphira allows you to inject real depth into your mixes, helping you glue your tracks and turn them into a more musical and cohesive mix. Cobalt Saphira excels on groups and sub-mixes and in mastering situations.
Whether you are mixing or mastering, in the studio or live, Cobalt Saphira gives you harmonic enhancement that can be creatively tailored exactly how you like it — a full palette of analog sound for you to pour all over your tracks.
