Tour-tough and ready
Based on the battle-tested Waves LV1 software mixer, the eMotion LV1 Classic packs unprecedented processing power into a compact, lightweight, self-contained hardware format that’s rugged enough to endure the rigors of the road. Once at your destination, you’ll enjoy effortless load-in and quick tear-down. Spec’d with 64 mono/stereo channels and 44 buses, the eMotion LV1 Classic delivers studio-grade sound while providing an innovative, user-friendly user interface with flexible onboard processing — a potent combination that lets live sound engineers sculpt hard-hitting, highly detailed live mixes in any scenario.
Industry-leading sound quality
Waves packed the eMotion LV1 Classic with the latest cutting-edge digital audio technology, including a double precision 32-bit floating-point digital mixing engine for maximum clarity and headroom. The mixer is outfitted with 16 onboard Waves IONIC Signature mic/line preamps, an original Waves design with fully discrete analog circuitry for optimized headroom and transient response, and a vanishingly low noise floor. You can even select between pristine preamp sound and opulent harmonic enhancement on a per-input basis.
Take control
Controlled from its expansive 21-inch multi-touch screen and 16+1 physical 100mm faders, the eMotion LV1 Classic gives you instant access to every important element of a live mix — and and then some. It’s thoughtful design — informed by input from top live engineers — helps facilitate even the most complex mix moves and patching schemes. Eight mono/stereo Group Mixes, 24 mono/stereo Aux Mixes, and eight mono/stereo Matrix Mixes feeding left, right, and center Master Buses give you near-infinite routing possibilities. Comprehensive connectivity includes 16 mic/line inputs with Waves IONIC Signature preamps, 12 Line outs, one AES input with SRC, two AES outputs, and a Headphone output with 1/4-inch and 3.5mm TRS connections. There’s also HDMI for an external second monitor, a SoundGrid switch for SG device expansion, and a secondary network port for Internet/Wi-Fi router connection. Lastly, the console features a built-in redundant dual power supply for robust performance even under adverse conditions.
