Your speakers may be lying to you
Even great studio monitors can be misleading when your room creates huge peaks and dips in the frequency response. You compensate for problems that actually aren’t there, only to discover your mix sounds completely different elsewhere.
MSX takes your room out of the equation.
Is this you?
Three steps everyone in this industry has lived through.
It was never your monitors. It was the room they're sitting in — and every room lies differently.

From the studio
Hear what people are saying about MSX
I’ve now mixed and mastered two client projects exclusively using Slate MSX with my AirPods Pro 3, and both have been approved by the clients. I’m doing serious mixing and mastering with this setup, and the convenience is a huge part of the appeal—being able to work with just my laptop and AirPods gives me so much flexibility. MSX has given me the confidence to make critical mix decisions and deliver finished work that my clients are happy with.
Why AirPods Pro?
There's something very clever happening inside AirPods Pro.
In-ear monitoring can vary when fit and seal change. AirPods Pro use onboard adaptive equalization to help maintain a more consistent low-frequency foundation as fit changes. MSX is designed around that platform and then applies its own monitoring models.
A professional monitoring system you'll actually use everywhere.
- No interface.
- No cables.
- No problem.
This is where MSX becomes a different category from VSX or Immersion One. It is not "less professional." It is the professional monitoring option optimized for immediate access and mobility.

Questions
Can you really professionally mix on AirPods Pro?
Absolutely! MSX uses the same award-winning speaker modeling technology behind VSX to recreate professional studio monitoring environments on your AirPods Pro. You can make accurate mix decisions, hear problems you might miss on your own speakers, and create mixes that translate confidently to the real world.
How is MSX different from VSX?
VSX uses specially designed, dedicated headphones paired with our speaker modeling software for a highly detailed professional monitoring experience. MSX brings that same powerful speaker modeling technology to the AirPods Pro you already own, giving you an incredibly convenient wireless mixing solution with no additional headphones, cables, or audio interface required.
How is MSX different from Immersion One?
Immersion One is our flagship open-back planar magnetic headphone system, designed for the ultimate level of detail, realism, and listening precision. MSX prioritizes portability and convenience, delivering professional speaker modeling through your wireless AirPods Pro. Both are powerful mixing tools, each with its own unique advantages.
Which AirPods Pro models are supported?
MSX is specifically designed and calibrated for Apple AirPods Pro 1, 2, and 3. Each supported model receives dedicated tuning to deliver an accurate and consistent monitoring experience.
Do I need an audio interface?
No! That's one of the best things about MSX. All you need is your computer, AirPods Pro, and MSX. No audio interface, headphone amplifier, or cables required. Just connect your AirPods Pro and start mixing!
Is this a subscription?
No! MSX is yours to own. Purchase it outright for $99 (currently $79 introductory pricing), or choose our convenient rent-to-own option for just $6.50 per month for 12 months. After your final payment, MSX is yours to keep with no ongoing subscription fees.
Can I use MSX anywhere?
Yes! Whether you're in your home studio, traveling, sitting on your couch, or working from a hotel room, MSX lets you access world-class virtual monitoring environments anywhere you can use your compatible computer and AirPods Pro. No dedicated studio, audio interface, or cables required.
