Waves Nx Head Tracker – User Guide 

Example 2: 

Recording session with one engineer and two musicians 

1. Create a master track bus and two auxiliary buses for the musicians’ headphone

monitor mix. We will call these buses “Nx Master” and “Nx Monitor 1 and 2."

2. Route the Nx Master bus to the engineer’s headphones, and the Nx Monitor buses 1

and 2 to two separate headphone outputs (one for each musician).

3. Open a plugin instance on each of the Nx buses.

4. If the Waves Head Tracker application is not open, open it now. Power up the three

Nx Head Trackers.

5. Connect the Nx Head Tracker.

Mac: 

The Nx Head trackers are detected automatically and added to the list of 

devices in the Waves Head Tracker application. Check the Connect checkbox. 

Windows: 

Click the “Open Bluetooth Settings” button and pair the three Nx Head 

Trackers. The Nx Head Trackers will be detected automatically and added to the list 

of devices in the Waves Head Tracker application. Check the Connect checkbox. 

6. Use the Waves Head Tracker application to assign each Nx Head tracker a unique

name. This helps to identify the devices.

7. For each plugin instance, select one of the Nx Head Trackers from the Tracking

Device menu. 

Make sure that on the "Nx Master," you select the engineer’s head

tracker, and on “Nx Monitor 1 and 2," you select the Nx Head Tracker that is

used by the musician receiving this monitor bus. 

Incorrect selection will result in

the movements of one Nx Head Tracker listener affecting the sound orientation of

another listener.

Once all the Nx Head Trackers are assigned to the correct Nx or Abbey Road 
Studio 3 instances and are routed separately to the listeners’ headphones, each 
musician will hear his own monitor mix with Nx and head tracking, and the mix 
engineer will hear the master mix with head tracking through headphones
