    What is Nuendo?
    Came across the name in relation to some musical google searches I was doing. I can't tell if it's a sequencer or anotation app or what?
    Anybody?

    Kind of adult version of cubase. Have a look at Steinberg website.

    Hi Evan,

    Check this homeage:

    http://www.steinberg.de/

    Nuendo is Cubase SX's bigger brother for postproduction, including all the sequencing functionality from SX.

    Regards,

    Peter

    Apart from some silly bugs and little omissions, Nuendo is the most serious contender on the professional DAW-market, when you prefer a more musical (opposed to a pure technical) approach, but are tired of the massive shortcomings of Logic in this sector. The feature-set is over-complete, the handling great and intuitive, and the initial are costs very low, especially compared to ProT**ls.

    They have a nice discussion-board at forum.nuendo.com , but I dunno if it's a good idea to tell you ... used to be one of my favorite web-hangouts for several years.

    Yeah, and rumour has it that some of the features (that caused some of us to use Cubase VST in the first place) that were removed in SX will be re-introduced to both SX and Nuendo in the "new" version.

    Ah very cool. I will check out the site. Is it working on Mac? Problaby not, otherwise I would have heard of it ages ago.

    But still, very interesting.

    And thanks for the forum link. I'm just gonna take a peek. No posting, I PROMISE. [;)]

    Yes, like Cubase it is cross-platform, although there are those who think that it works better on PC. However, I guess that it depends on what you want it for; in my opinion it may become a rival for ProTools as long as the hardware one uses is of good quality. The advantage to me is that is has all the functionality of Cubase.

    Nuendo is cross-plattform all the way (since the year 2000, actually), i use it under OSX as well as under W2K/XP. Especially for multichannel- and surround-projects it is almost unparalleled, especially for the price. I do VSL- and MIR-related work with Nuendo, too.

    The only major drawback I encountered in recent days is a strange dongle-protection error on the Mac - otherwise the versions are more or less identical.

    Apart from the cost-factor, the main reason I would prefer the PC for a true VST-compatible host is the sheer amount of great (and sometimes silly) VST-plugins available for this OS.

    The PC is a better audio platform than the Mac anyway

    And to answer the very first Q: Yes, all my work is done in Nuendo on PC. Ironicly Apple forced me to switch from Logic, when they bought Emagic. No regrets about that.

    LDT, how many softsynths can you run? And ALtiVerb works? AUs?

    No AUs in PC-land! :-] And no AltiVerb, but the free SIR instead - a quite capable alternative, as long as you have some good IR's at hand (the Cholakis-sets, for instance).

    Dietz,

    No I was talking about Mac Nuendo. But thats a good point about IRs.

    No AU's in Nuendo Mac, either. VST's only. Not as of the latest version, anyway.
