Waves CLA Nx

This was my first NX plugin I ever used and I used it a lot for 2-3 years, before I got the Germano.

When I did Rock Music, it was my go to reference and in fact I had it NEVER turned off from the day on, I got it.

Why I don’t use it anymore as my main mix room?
There is a big bump in the area of 50hZ, which is according to CLA exactly like the room sounds.

But since I make more Hip Hop and modern Pop, the bass response of the Germano and the Nashville Ocean Way is way better. For 808 heavy and Big EDM sounds, I wouldn’t use it, for 2000s Rock Style it is still the go-to.

I still use the little „Boombox“ setup in the „back“ everytime before I commit to a final mix to hear if it translates.
