With this plugin, it’s easy to forget that I have 21 head mics up there at the same time the CLA-76 gives me a phenomenal large choir sound, together with individual vocal leads. On the vocals, it gives me that rich, smooth, expensive-sounding vocal sound.

I love the Chris Lord-Alge Signature Series bundle, CLA Classic Compressors, and especially the CLA-76, which I use for parallel compression on drums, and also on vocals and guitars. Soderland adds, on using Waves plugins, “There are different ways of approaching and using plugins sometimes I use them to season a mix, to add that little extra sometimes I need them to be problem solvers at times I use them to change the whole feel and sound of my entire mix and occasionally I do all of these things at once. I knew I would need some clever Waves plugins to give me the sound, width and depth required in order to control the difficult and demanding composition of a live punk rock band, multiple head mics and a string section.”

There is a full punk band, 21 singers with head mics, singing on stage and backstage, nearly all the time. I wanted to get a loud, in-your-face rock sound, but still keep vocals and dialog in focus, without losing attitude. As this musical is based on Green Day’s album American Idiot and some of their other work, it was very important for me to get as close as possible to Green Day’s signature sound. A Waves MultiRack SoundGrid is installed on a MacBook Air I use it to house and manage my Waves plugins.
Soderland remarks, “In one of the local card ports I have an A&H M-Waves V2 card, connecting to two Waves SoundGrid Server One units in a redundant setup. I’m using the Waves C4 Multiband Compressor to control the dynamic and frequencies on some head mics.” Waves H-Reverb is great when you need to really fine-tune your reverbs. I also use the Waves Vitamin Sonic Enhancer for widening the strings, and the Waves H-Reverb Hybrid Reverb is a favorite on a lot of stuff – it sounds amazing, and it is very easy to use. Doing a Green Day musical, you must have that CLA sound.
