Product Overview

Add the acclaimed Waves LV1 mixer engine to a traditional console frame, load it with industry-standard Waves plugins and bespoke preamps then deliver it in an intuitive, compact form factor and you have the Waves LV1 Classic live mixing console. Tailored for live sound engineers who value sonic excellence, world-class processing, and ease of control, It offers 64 mono/stereo input channels, and 44 mono/stereo buses (including groups, auxes, matrices, and master buses). It boasts a powerful 32-bit floating point mix engine, delivering latency as low as 0.8 ms. The console's 21.5” multi-touch screen with 1000 Nit brightness, 16+1 motorized faders, and precision encoders make for an enhanced user interface, while the 16 Waves Signature Preamps ensure superior sound quality.

Packed with industry-leading processing capabilities, the LV1 Classic includes a built-in SoundGrid Extreme Server to run the integrated plugins directly on any channel or bus without breaking a sweat. 12 line outputs, a pair of AES3 outputs, and the option to add Dante, MADI, or additional analog or AES3 outputs means the future of live mixing is also future-proof! Easily expand the system with up to 3 additional processing servers and 4 backup servers (sold separately), while the system's customizable keys, channel colors, and advanced patching system allow for flexible configuration. Additional features include dual power supply redundancy, immersive in-ear mixing, Dugan auto-mixing, and the ability to record 16 tracks to USB or 128 to remote computers.

Ideal for professional live sound setups, the LV1 Classic also includes a suite of Waves plugins such as Waves Tune Real-Time, F6 Dynamic EQ, and R-Comp, and more, with the option to upgrade to 160 additional award-winning plugins. The console's robust construction and compact design (22” x 15.8” x 22.1”) make it travel-ready, weighing just 37 lbs. with a total shipping weight of 51.3 lbs. Its ergonomic layout, vast array of features, and selfless versatility mean you'll never work around this console. It will always work with you to craft the mix in your head.
