1.2 Product Overview
Waves Scheps Parallel Particles was developed by Waves in collaboration with
Grammy®-winning mixing engineer Andrew Scheps (Adele, Red Hot Chili Peppers,
Metallica, Jay Z, Black Sabbath, Lana Del Rey). The plugin’s four controls – Sub, Air,
Bite and Thick – capture four different types of parallel processes that Andrew uses in
order to shape his sound. Acting together, these controls let you dig in and make huge
changes in a subtle way.
Sub and Air are harmonic generators that create resonances which do not exist in your
source. This results in unique tone shaping:
Sub enriches your existing subs and/or adds sub frequencies that were never there
before. It works more with resonance than with EQ, so it’s a great way to create
presence in the low end without losing control.
Air focuses on those elusive air frequencies and brings them to the forefront.
Traditional EQ can yield unwanted noise or artifacts, but the Air control synthesizes
the top end from your existing lower frequency material, leaving it clean.
