Waves Audio now shipping Clarix LB: AI-Powered Noise Reduction Plugin for Live Broadcast
Knoxville, TN, August 20, 2025 — Waves Audio, the world’s leading developer of professional audio signal processing technologies and plugins, is now shipping Clarix LB: an AI-powered noise reduction plugin for voice, designed to instantly clean ambient noise in real-time broadcast environments. Clarix LB is ideal for on-location anchors, reporters, live-streamed worship services, or any live voice capture scenario.
With Waves’ new Clarix LB, engineers can now experience instant ambient noise cleanup for live broadcast. Clarix LB is compatible with the Waves SoundGrid processing platform as well as the SuperRack LiveBox, making it suited for real-time live broadcast workflows. This plugin can run on any major mixing console via Waves SuperRack SoundGrid and SuperRack Performer, or SoundGrid Rack for VENUE, or on the Waves eMotion LV1 (including the LV1 Classic mixing console).
The plugin’s AI noise reduction is powered by the same Technology and Engineering Emmy® Award-winning Waves Neural Networks engine that drives Waves’ latest generation of noise removal plugins for studio and live applications, such as Clarity™ Vx Pro.
Because Clarix LB uses Waves’ cutting-edge neural network noise removal engine in real time, it requires significant processing power. To ensure stable performance across all SoundGrid platforms — eMotion LV1 (Classic or any other configurations), SuperRack, or SoundGrid Rack for VENUE: a Waves Titan SoundGrid server is required for real-time SoundGrid processing.
Key features include:
- AI engine powered by Technology and Engineering Emmy®-winning Waves Neural Networks
- SoundGrid-compatible for use in Waves SuperRack and eMotion LV1
- Choose the exact voice/noise balance with a single knob
- Large UI, ideal for easy broadcast control
- Up to 96 kHz sample rate
- 47 ms latency
- “Double” analysis plus width control for stereo sources
- Requires Waves Titan server for real-time SoundGrid processing
Waves Clarix LB brings studio-grade AI noise reduction to the fast-paced demands of live broadcast, delivering pristine voice clarity wherever it’s needed most.
Clarix LB has been added to the Waves Ultimate plugin subscription, which includes the comprehensive Waves plugin catalog (over 240 plugins) as monthly or annual subscriptions. It is also available for purchase as a separate plugin (perpetual license).
