Nuendo 6.5 from Steinberg is a major update to the native-based, audio-editing software solution for the professional audio post, studio production, or live recording engineer. Features include an advanced mixing console, a complete ADR taker solution, alongside fully integrated EBU-compliant loudness metering. Pro Sound Effects post-production library delivers a wide range of royalty-free, post production sounds in multiple categories.
The software assists audio post-production professionals by providing solutions dedicated to their particular requirements and workflow. Anymix Pro from IOSONO is surround panning and upmixing software built into Nuendo that allows for creating state-of-the-art surround productions. ADR Taker makes it easy to spot, record, and organize voice recordings for different purposes, such as language dubbing, without the need for expensive external ADR hardware.
Fully integrated loudness measurement makes it easier to mix and deliver EBU R-128 compliant productions. Voxengo CurveEQ sound-matching technology allows the engineer to match disparate sound sources from different takes (or production days) and make them sound as if they came from the same source.
Projects can easily contain hundreds of tracks, dozens of plug-ins and a multitude of automation curves, and jumping to different work areas within a project can cost lots of production time. The software provides the ability to save whole clusters of audio clips, which is especially useful for recurring elements in TV series. Additionally, the ability to export different versions of a mix in one go dramatically speeds up workflow.
Game sound designers can benefit from Nuendo because of its industry openness, the flexible program structure, and a multitude of features to create top notch sound effects. Whether it's high-quality pitch-shifting or time-stretching, file management with the MediaBay, or the ability to precisely edit and trim sounds by using the scrubbing functions, designers will find all the tools they require within the software.
