Mix with Unrivalled Sound Quality,Creative Freedom, and Full Flexibility

Pristine Sound, Maximum Dynamics

LV1’s signature Waves Double-Precision, 32-bit floating point mixing engine delivers supreme sound quality, exceptional dynamic range, and the headroom that’s vital for live sound—at sample rates from 44.1 to 96 kHz.

Mix with Creative Freedom

LV1 offers total integration with the same award-winning, cutting-edge Waves plugins that power GRAMMY-winning studio projects. Mix live as creatively as in the studio, with 200+ optional plugins for all production styles—up to 8 plugins hosted directly on each LV1 channel.

Precision Problem-Solving

Handle live sound challenges easily with industry-leading tools for feedback elimination, stage mic bleed control, dynamic EQ, multiple mic auto-mixing, de-essing, voice and bass gain riders, and much more.

Waves eMo Channel Strips Plugins—Designed for the Stage

Waves eMo plugins for EQ, filters, and dynamics create the ideal channel strip—with transparent sound, zero latency, and a user interface designed specifically for the uncompromising needs of live performance.

Tactile Fader and Touch Control Options

Mix with optimized multi-touch response, and/or use up to two Waves FIT controllers for tactile control, for a total of 32+2 motorized faders, multi-function rotary controls, layer switches, assignable keys, tap tempo, auto-mapped plugin parameters, and more.

Prepare for the Show, Anytime, Anywhere

With a SoundGrid-compatible audio interface and server, you can mix audio in your hotel room on a system that fits in a backpack—then expand the same system at the live venue with more I/O, servers, and interfaces. Or use the free eMotion LV1 Session Editor to configure your session’s parameters without audio, using any laptop or desktop without need for an I/O or server.

Build a Super System

Connect multiple eMotion LV1 mixers to the same network switch, and share any I/O devices—stageboxes, DAWs, computer drivers—as well as tracks, synths, etc. among multiple LV1 systems. No signal splitting required: LV1s can send your sources from the stage to multiple destinations simultaneously, with separate gain control for each engineer.

Remote Control Apps and Personal Monitor Mixing

The eMotion LV1 mixer includes apps to control a variety of tasks remotely. MixTwin gives you full remote control over your mixer & plugin settings from an iPad by mirroring the LV1 screen. MyFOH offers independent iPad control of the mixer levels, panning and sends from anywhere in the venue. MyMon provides up to 10 performers mobile control over their own monitor mixes.

Upgrade to Immersive In-Ear Mixing

Bring clarity and comfort to in-ear monitors: eMo IEM is a paid software upgrade to eMotion LV1, offering immersive 360-degree panning for in-ear mixing. No external hardware required: simply set the LV1’s monitor output to immersive, and your performers will receive immersive monitor sound in their in-ears.

eMo D5 Dynamics

1 Plugin, 5 Dynamics Processors, Endless Solutions

Whether for live mixing or for studio work on music, voiceovers, or narration, eMo D5 incorporates 5 essential dynamics processing solutions: Compressor, Gate/Expander, Leveler, Limiter, and DeEsser. The fast response, and clean, transparent sound, make eMo D5 a superstar on stage or in the studio.

This plugin is all about effective, seamless solutions—and dialing up those solutions fast, thanks to the single-window, touchscreen-friendly interface that places every parameter at your fingertips.

eMo F2 Filter

So many issues need only a simple high or lowpass filter—prevent bass buildup, reduce hiss, keep low frequencies out of reverb, fix acoustics issues, reduce amp sim harshness, minimize mic p-pops, and more. So why dig through multiple parametric EQ stages to find what you need?

eMo F2 Filter’s touch-friendly interface, full LV1 compatibility, zero latency, and low CPU consumption make it a natural for fixing live performance problems—quickly and simply.

eMo Generator

A test tone generator may not be glamorous… but it sure is useful. When used with a spectrum analyzer (like those in the F6, GEQ, and H-EQ), pink noise reveals filter curves, differences among EQ designs, and distortion components. Or, gate sine waves or noise to supplement drum sounds.

Mix in pink noise to emulate listening to mixes while driving. Use sine waves to find room resonances, ring out PA systems, check your hearing, and more—don’t miss out on this useful tool.

eMo Q4 Equalizer

With zero latency, ultra-low CPU consumption, multitouch response (with a generous interface size), transparent sound quality, and full integration within the channel strip of the eMotion LV1 live mixer, this 4-band paragraphic EQ comes fully optimized for live sound.

On stage, you don’t have time to dig into menus. With eMo Q4, all parameters are on one screen, and touch-sensitive—you can probably fix an issue before anyone even knows it’s happening.
