How to Share Your DAW Audio Remotely with Waves Stream - Tutorial

[@vivekaryan6061]

game changer for home producers..

[@bby.lucid666]

You can use pedal also

[@Airic]

Can anyone confirm if this is easier to use and works better than Audiomovers? Especially from a recording client's standpoint who might not be so tech savvy, i'm curious which service (waves vs audiomovers) would be better to use with clients for remote vocal tracking? 🤔

[@einsam514]

Reminds me a bit of Cubase Transit, which is discontinued. Never actually tried it, but I think it makes it possible to record session musicians, vocals etc. remotely in realtime. But Waves Stream works across many DAWs.

[@mpacreative]

Pretty much ANY Daw, or web browser.

[@DeanRavenMusic]

So does the listening party also need to pay for Waves Access or is that just me the sender of audio?

[@waves]

Just the sender of the audio needs to have a subscription.

[@DeanRavenMusic]

@waves this is awesome I can now easily collaborate with my producer in Canada live if we use this and something like Any desk so he can control the DAW!

[@dminq1776]

Game changer for sure! Can't wait to try it out.

[@benking8610]

Love the subscription model and going to love this product. Very well executed video too.

[@zachj4042]

Hey Waves Team !! QUESTION: can you use it in OBS? Waves Stream To OBS?

[@KordTaylor]

Is it integrated with a video feed like the LANDR stuff? Is there a Zoom driver or ? Also what’s the audio quality like vs. LANDR and Audiomovers? Thanks! This looks pretty cool. 👏🏻

[@waves]

Hi there, it's just for sending audio as of now.

[@zaharishtonov]

@4:11 - This should be an option that you can activate or deactivate within the plug-in preferences. Expect many customer support tickets on this one when users "do not hear audio" right away. You are welcome!

[@richj405]

I sincerely love y’all for this 🥹

[@cgsmithinnola]

Thanks MPA! Hope you are doing well!

[@mpacreative]

All good here Chris, down under!

[@andremelo246]

I'm guessing it's similar to Audiomovers Listento?

[@astroponic]

This is so frickin' cool stoked to try it!🎸salute🎸

[@user-mz3ni8yu4v]

We want to buy a PERPETUAL LICENSE!

[@waves]

Hi there, We hear you on subscriptions! Waves Stream is subscription-based because it's a live internet-based service, not just a plugin. It relies on a large network of servers that need to be maintained and scaled: Basically what this means, is that every time you use it, we pay for it. This means ongoing costs for us to ensure that your audio stream is always smooth and top-quality: It's all about providing continuous value and keeping the tunes flowing. 🎶💡 If you want to learn more about how Waves Stream works as a web-based service, watch this video with Product Manager Michael Adams: www.waves.com/how-waves-stream-works-as-a-web-service

[@IMCIDR]

@@waves Is it true that with the Mercury Bundle you get a perpetual license for Waves Stream?

[@mistervid]

@@IMCIDR No, Mercury Bundle owners will not get a perpetual license, because Waves Stream is only available as a subscription. However: When you own Mercury *and* have an active Waves Update Plan (WUP), you will get access to Waves Stream at no extra cost. If WUP expires and is not renewed, then the access will expire. To say it differently, when you buy WUP for Mercury, a subscription subscription for Waves Stream is included as long as WUP runs.

[@BosleyBeats]

They don’t exist! You still need a maintenance plan (subscription) to prevent daw incompatibility

[@mattrixx_audio]

@@IMCIDR You do have to have an active WUP as per getting the second license for Mercury, which is where the WAES Stream license is tied. (So no, it’s not perpetual) Fair enough, as in this case, it’s not just a sell it to the consumer and let them sort it. There’s a back end to maintaining and serving the tools, networking and required infrastructure for transporting 2:00 the Falcon. codec

[@robbarooo]

Do listeners need to subscribe too? In the daw listen plug or in the web listen interface?

[@mistervid]

If the listener wants to use Waves Stream inside the DAW, then he/she will need to purchase a subscription in order to use the Receive Plugin. On the other hand, everyone can listen to your stream with a browser on basically any device without any costs. So if the listener uses the browser, no subscription is required.

[@mpacreative]

@@mistervid accurately said, well done :) Signed The PM

[@rogercabo5545]

Anyway of sub or prep lic the idea is great.. 👍 And with the right tech acknowledge vsti control you can perform recording between 2 PCs on different locations.

[@krugdotson]

Hi Michael, great product. One thing to note. For every session I need to send an email to the client. Is there a way to create one stream for multiple different sessions for one client? Thanks

[@mpacreative]

Hi mate, working on that for you in an update. Don't know eta.

[@moilimyacoub4580]

This looks amaaaazing. Thanks Waves. Quick question though, is it possible to Collaborate recording lets say an artist who's at this appartment and me being in the studio and tracking his vocals from his appartment to my studio DAW??? or is this just for Streaming Mix or audio checking??? I'm very curious because NONE of all, videos out there show this exemple. They're all about streaming back and forth

[@waves]

Hi there, our tech support department is open 7 days a week and will be more than glad to assist. Please contact us directly: www.waves.com/contact-us

[@MrWillihelmdueck]

Does it work with LV1? Does it support multiple listeners?

[@mpacreative]

We are working on LV1 support. Multi listener support is not in immediate future, because of the focus i put on low latency.

[@anproductions4287]

This is sooooo gooood!!!!!!!, Bye to all those complicated methods

[@danmolamichael2884]

How can we get it

[@Mourninghorse]

Why Is there No Download ability From the Send app in the DAW to the Receive app in another DAW or a mobile Device!? the ability to send a stream and the receiver save it, so you can actually take it to the Car or Headphones for multiple listens...have a save and Play function on the receive app as apposed to relying on the sender to Play it...! If this Feature exists i cant find it.... otherwise a great Plugin....

[@UrbanFabricRecords]

I would think because this is a streaming feature, not a transfer one?

[@Morpholigical]

What makes this better than streaming it from say zoom or discord?

[@tothrec]

Audio Fidelity. I've worked with music from Zoom. Ouch.

[@tothrec]

Wow! This is wonderful. Now I don't have to keep mailing files to my distant clients.

[@NoQualmsTheArtist]

Please make it a purchase item not just subscription. I never do subscriptions for work related products 🙏🏾☺️

[@NoQualmsTheArtist]

@@waves maybe a lite version that just syncs between your computer and your phone, so you can live test in the car. That's all a lot of people need, well it's what I need 🤣

[@mpacreative]

@@NoQualmsTheArtist This lite version you describe uses exactly the same technology I'm afraid for it to work well.

[@NoQualmsTheArtist]

@@mpacreative I guess I'll have to use Mix To Mobile then. One off payment $39, uses the same wifi network to stream from your DAW to your phone. If you car is parked in your carport or driveway you will be fine. Waves missing an opportunity here, the technology already exists 🤷🏾‍♂️

[@rasdeo5836]

Can you send the wave to another daw for someone else to work on it in there system and them send it back to the first sender?like we transfer doese or like Dropbox does?

[@waves]

You can record in another DAW via the Receive plugin. If you require more information, feel free to reach out to our technical support: www.waves.com/contact-us

[@teespence365]

Great idea besides the subscription only. I guess the message wasn’t loud and clear from the community the last time you tried to force people into subscriptions lol

[@mistervid]

Oh, the subscription argument again ... How do you think Sender and Receiver connect without a massive server infrastructure in the cloud? Through thin air with invisible cables? Please, if you have the means to build a worldwide server infrastructure capable of handling tens of thousands of streams in realtime while also connecting the systems, for FREE then just do it and offer this service for a one time fee of 10$. I am sure everyone will be onboard and you will be broke before you even sold 1 item. Why do you think Amazon is thinning out its Alexa team? Because the costs of maintaining the infrastructure is way too high without any recurring fees - which is by the way a reason why Amazon has shut down their Echo Connect service worldwide and moved emergency calling to a subscription model.

[@Mr.NovaRecords]

Are we allowed to recieve and send at the same time? i mean, can i play on rehearsal with my drummer reciving e-drums from him and sending my full daw session to drummer also?

[@mpacreative]

Sure, thats why there are two plugins. Send and Recieve. Watch the full tutorial above I go into this use case.

[@Mr.NovaRecords]

@@mpacreative Thx mate! i'll test trought free trial, if it go as it should, im sold!

[@bleakryan]

I need this, will be using

[@Phat-Monkey]

Subscription only lol NEXT....

[@danymalsound]

they all are: Audio Movers, Sessionwire, etc. par for the course these days

[@mistervid]

LOL - good luck waiting 🙂

[@LeDungProducer]

woa woa thank you thank you

[@8Mirrors]

reapers's restream but subscription based?

[@rautshsale1948]

lol thought the same

[@mpacreative]

@@rautshsale1948 not the same tech, or processing in those two plugins

[@mpacreative]

@8Mirrors no not the same. ReStream in Reaper is good for sending audio within your own computer or local network. We designed Waves Stream so it can send to anyone, anywhere, world wide, as long as they have internet, you can send it to them.

[@vendettabout2runup347]

That’s a bet waves 💯

[@drawingboarduniversity333]

I'm not touching this if it's strictly subscription. No thx.

[@BrofUJu]

Tbf, this is a service and almost always going to be a subscription. It is with Audio movers too

[@mistervid]

There is no way this is going to be perpetual, because there are recurring, ongoing costs associcated with the required server infrastructure for this to work. Since Waves is charged by third parties continuously, it would not make any economic sense to offer perpetual licenses.

[@BosleyBeats]

Yeah this is direction of the entire industry. Even if you buy plugins outright, you have to buy “maintenance plans” to ensure the plugin remains compatible with the DAW after a year or whatever. It is what it is unfortunately

[@BrofUJu]

@@BosleyBeats I mean, no. That's just Waves.

[@drawingboarduniversity333]

I'd rather just buy it for 200 than to pay 9 dollars monthly for the rest of my life

[@dgc-tv]

if it was one time purchase i would buy for me and my friend instantly

Get pedal its the same

[@mpacreative]

Instead we're selling it at 88.88 for the year. OR you can use it as part of your Waves Creative Access subscription, or as a Mercury Bundle owner with current WUP. Here's the video where I explain WHY we chose subscription for this. kzbin.info/www/bejne/kIiXnoufqcR5odU

please add variation for multiple devices wtf... u said it's to 'priorize low latency, so there should be a variation called 'high latency/for multiple devices' or something. besides that, nice plugin thank you edit: I figured the high latency I was having was beacuse

Use audiomovers instead ;)

@@waves understandable and makes most sense with something to be maintained like this , (guess could be said with any plugin ) I think most people just like to own , even if it cost a little more to own it. Maybe it can be the future of plugins, buy it , then pay to have it fix if needed . Like a car , guitar etc. I could be totally off , just sharing my opinion! And definitely not saying I wouldn’t NOT TRY IT due to subscription, definitely wouldn’t keep. Though. Thanks for reply!

[@XXROGUE]

Can it stream audio to my comment?

[@mpacreative]

can you what now?

[@jacey714]

This will replace the dreaded AudioMovers.

[@rtouss]

Waves Stream > ListenTo

[@-musiclee-]

2 BIG negatives on this plugin, 1- you can only stream to 1 person at a time, i need to stream this to 2 or 3 people at same time, as my client has multiple employees who'd like to listen and collaborate 2- the mic is only 1 way, only sender can talk to receiver, the receiver has to be on telephone, or another app to talk to sender, (Assuming receiver does not have a DAW) add these 2 much needed features, and i'm sold, till then, i can't get onboard

[@leonardocaminati6432]

Why the hell are you marketing it as a tool to check mixes out of the studio when it indeed filters audio badly. There is a step Hi Pass filter at about 90Hz in the stream. What the hell are you doing? Is it even how it's supposed to work. Or just some bug?
