Waves Dugan Speech

Software version of the Dugan automixer for automatic control of multiple mic gains, designed for integrated use inside the eMotion LV1 live mixing console.

When multiple participants speak in panel discussions, corporate events, talk shows, or houses of worship, this means multiple mics—and multiple problems: Feedback, comb filtering, noise, people talking over each other…

This is where the Dugan Speech auto-mixer steps in. Developed with audio inventor Dan Dugan, Dugan Speech controls gain automatically, in real time. Forget about the nightmares of controlling multiple microphones—now you can run up to 64 mics with complete confidence.

Features:

1. Software version of the Dugan Automatic Mixing Controllers, developed by Dan Dugan
2. Reduces the gain of other mics when only one person is speaking
3. Smooth level changes don’t have the abrupt action of noise gates
4. Channel Override prioritizes specific mics, like a host’s
5. “Recall Safe” mode excludes snapshots from changing settings
6. Compatible with Waves' eMotion LV1 mixer & with other consoles via SuperRack SoundGrid or SuperRack Performer
7. Shares gain across channels when multiple people are speaking
8. 2 modes—Automix On (normal), or Off (unity gain inputs)
9. Adjust channel sensitivities when mixing automatically
10. Gain bargraph meter & input level metering
