Psychoacoustic Bass Enhancement Unit with Renaissance Compressor, MaxxBass, and L2

Bass Boost for Live Sound, Broadcast, Mastering & Post Production
They say that in electronics there's no new technology - the only changes
will be in size and applications. Things will simply keep getting smaller
while doing more. This is certainly true in music (just think about what an
iPod can do), but as we design smaller playback systems with small speakers,
there are also some tradeoffs, particularly in music. Clever cabinet designs and
high-excursion drivers can get you only so far. Any audio engineer trying to extract
bass from real-world components must eventually face the laws of physics:
All things being equal, small boxes and speaker cones can't move enough air
to produce a room-shaking low end. When working with systems tiny enough to
toss in a shoulder bag, the challenge is even more formidable. Interestingly enough,
Waves MaxxBCL has a new solution to this problem using a very old concept.

Waves MaxxBCL at a Glance:
MaxxBass? Bass Enhancement adds deep bass sound without adding bass frequencies
Waves Renaissance Compressor
L2 Ultramaximizer Peak Limiter
24-bit/96kHz resolution with 48-bit, double-precision processing
Supports optical, coaxial S/PDIF, AES/EBU, balanced and unbalanced line-level analog signals

MaxxBass Bass Enhancement
Waves' patented algorithm adds stunning bass sound without adding bass frequencies,
delivering a bigger bottom end. MaxxBass? allows your audience to hear bass frequencies
lower than physically present by applying psychoacoustic principles: Even though we
can hear a bass guitar from a small speaker, we don't actually hear the fundamental
frequency because the speaker can't produce a pitch that low. Instead, we hear the
harmonics that the speaker can produce, and this causes the brain to create the "missing
fundamental." MaxxBass? takes this well-known psychoacoustic phenomenon to the
maximum, giving you the ability to extend the perceived frequency response of a system
about two octaves below its physical limitation.
To accomplish this, the signal is split: high frequencies are passed to the output (to be
added back to the bass). The bass signal is analyzed and a specific series of upper
harmonics are created. Because the dynamics of the original bass are duplicated in these
harmonics, the result is the most natural sounding bass enhancement available. The
MaxxBass? harmonics and the original bass can be mixed in any proportion at the output.
To provide more control, a high-pass filter can be switched in, allowing the harmonics only to
be passed along as an "image" of the original bass frequencies, which is useful when working
with a system with known low-frequency limitations to avoid over-excursion of the speaker drivers.

Renaissance Compressor
Designed to provide the classic warm sound of analog compressors, the legendary
Renaissance Compressor controls dynamics with studio-style warmth that flatters
full mixes, vocals, or instruments. Controls include selection of vintage-style Opto
or modern Electro compression, and threshold, ratio, and attack controls. Waves
ARC? (Automatic Release Control) algorithm dynamically optimizes the compressor's
release value for a wide-ranging input. ARC? reacts much the way a human ear
expects, and can produce increased RMS level with greater clarity.
In general, the release is faster for peak transients and slower for the overall RMS
level. The ARC? system varies the release time to fit the ear's expectations while
increasing RMS, and without creating distracting artifacts. In this way, the
Renaissance Compressor can serve as a leveler plus a fast compressor simultaneously.

L2 Ultramaximizer Peak Limiter
Heard on countless hit records and soundtracks, the L2 Ultramaximizer puts sound
up-front with breathtaking transparency. The L2 is capable of a very fast, overshoot-free
response. Once the limiter threshold has been set, you can define the actual peak level
that the processed signal will reach. Once set, limiting and level re-scaling becomes a
one-shot process. The L2 can significantly increase the average signal level without
introducing any audible side effects. Yet there is plenty of range to recreate "vintage"
effects such as level pumping or severely limited dynamic range if you like.

Pristine Sound Quality
The MaxxBCL offers 96kHz, 24-bit resolution with a 48-bit, double precision internal
processing path and a dynamic range of ~125dB. The totally passive analog input
path to the ADC uses Jensen transformers, while the output path also features Jensen
analog output transformers. The unit is galvanic-isolated, which prevents ground loops
and allows it to operate in electrically unstable environments. Waves MaxxBCL combines
the highest quality converters available with unequalled processing algorithms to offer you
astonishing new power in bass enhancement, dynamics processing, and format conversion
(analog-to-digital, digital-to-analog, and digital re-quantization).

Versatile Connections
The MaxxBCL supports optical, coaxial S/PDIF, AES/EBU, balanced and unbalanced
line-level analog signals. MaxxBCL features a unique set of input and output trim settings:
analog input headroom can be set from 9dB above 0dBu to 24dB in six precise steps
(using the rear-panel selectors). Analog output level is similarly set with a separate
rear-panel trim pot offering you the ability to connect between devices with a wide range
of input and output levels.
