Waves PSE Primary Source Expander - Live Mic Bleed Reduction Plugin
Waves PSE Primary Source Expander - Live Mic Bleed Reduction Plugin
Waves PSE Primary Source Expander is an easy-to-use, optimised expander that tackles the challenges of live sound. Mic bleed can cause feedback that stops you turning up the PA, background noise needs constant muting and live multitrack recordings need good isolation.
PSE solves most of these issues instantly, in most cases with a set-and-forget approach, and handles even tough bleed problems. It is not just for live music either, as it is ideal for lavalier mics and panel discussions.
- Higher mic levels before feedback
- Eliminates mic bleed and crosstalk quickly
- Reduces phase issues in live recordings
- Improves monitoring for musicians on stage
- Internal and external sidechain with HP/LP filters
- Ducking mode and release time presets
