VSX Immersion One
Planar Magnetic Open-Back Headphones
Experience the most accurate virtual speaker modeling ever created.
Advanced Planar Magnetic Engineering
A new era of accuracy begins with an ultra-thin 1-micron diaphragm, delivering lightning-fast transient response and unmatched detail.
The planar drivers have been custom-tuned by Steven Slate Audio for breathtaking realism across every mix environment.
Open-Back vs Closed-Back
Both the original VSX Closed-Back and the new Immersion One Open-Back deliver true 3D speaker and room modeling powered by VSX’s advanced spatial technology.
The Closed-Back VSX is built for isolation and control — perfect for tracking, mixing, or referencing anywhere you go.
The Immersion One, with its planar magnetic drivers and open-back design, pushes realism even further — offering breathtaking precision, depth, and a natural, immersive soundstage that feels like real speakers in a real room.
Perfect Sounding Speakers. Now In A Headphone.
The VSX Headphone Mixing System precisely models the sound of perfectly tuned pro studio speakers, car systems, clubs, and more. Identifying mix mistakes becomes effortless so your mixes will translate everywhere.
Mixes Fail Because Speakers Mislead You
Even with good studio monitors and acoustic treatment, most home studios have huge dips and peaks in the frequency response. When mixing, you unknowingly compensate for these dips and peaks. VSX fixes this problem.
How VSX Improves Your Mixes
MIX IN PRO STUDIOS
Mix in the world's best rooms and speakers that reveal mix problems you'd never hear in your home studio.
MIX IN THE CAR
Build mixes that ace the car test—without leaving your studio. Check bass response, vocal balance, and high end clarity across multiple revealing car systems.
MIX IN THE CLUB
Hear your mix in club environments with massive sound systems and room acoustics. When your track hits hard here, you know it will hit hard everywhere.
MIX ON CONSUMER DEVICES
Check your mix on earbuds, a boombox, and a cell phone right from your studio. You'll know it will sound great on the devices your listeners will actually hear it on.
Finally. Mixes That Pass The Car Test
The car test is the most revealing way to find out what’s wrong with your mix, and it’s always frustrating to hear how different the mix sounds in the car versus your studio speakers.VSX provides 4 emulated car sound systems. And just like the real thing, they will tell you exactly what needs fixing.
Speakers in a headphone?
VSX uses a technology called binaural psychoacoustics. It presents the same auditory cues to your ears that they would typically hear in a room with real speakers. Finally, the software is precisely tuned to an Ultra HD pair of beryllium driver headphones.
I'm pretty lost for words. It's amazing. You pretty much forget you have the headphones on and it's as if you're there in a room listening to speakers that are in front of you.
It's scary accurate.
