One of the ways it does this is by tracking the user’s head position and positioning the sound in the user’s headphones to match the way the user would hear it in the real world. Waves Nx bridges the gap by recreating, on headphones, the same auditory cues that reach our ears in the real world. The perception of sound over headphones is a completely different experience. It combines the interactions between acoustic sound waves and a room or space, the interaction between the sound waves and the physical movement of our head and ears, the reaction of our middle and inner ear and the audio nerve, and finally our brain’s cognition and interpretation of the acoustic landscape. The perception of spatial sound is a complex phenomenon. For over two decades, Waves Audio has pioneered the development of psychoacoustic signal processing algorithms that leverage cutting-edge knowledge of human hearing and perception in order to radically improve perceived sound quality. Waves Audio is the recipient of a Technical GRAMMY Award and the world-leading developer of audio DSP technologies. Now Waves is reaching out to the audio community to get involved via a Kickstarter campaign beginning June 22. According to Waves Audio, the possibilities are endless, and that’s why the company decided to put significant R&D emphasis on Nx to further develop the technology.
