Steinberg today announced the availability of the
Nuendo
Media Production System. Aimed at the audio for film, video and interactive
media markets, the Nuendo Media Production System is a modular system
centered on an audio software application for the Windows 98/NT and Windows
2000 platforms, which includes several hardware accessories. NUENDO features
up to 200 tracks of 24 bit/96 kHz digital audio, advanced-featured surround
mixing, a Video- Track, and MIDI Tracks, along with the most comprehensive
functions for digital audio available.
The entire Nuendo recording studio is feely configurable to any surround
format including 5:1 or 7:1. The user can either access a setup from the
Nuendo library of surround standards or create their own setups. Every
Pan in the Mixer becomes a full surround pan. Nuendo also offers full
surround mastering with the Surround Mastering Pack by Spectral Design
(see individual release).
Nuendo uses native signal processing entirely, which means that every
function is run from the computer's host processor. Today's computer systems
not only offer incredible processing power that goes beyond DSP systems,
but they also offer unparalleled expansion capabilities. Standard computer
equipment can further enhance and upgrade the system. With native signal
processing, the user is not tied to an expensive DSP-System with its defined
and fixed feature set.
VST 2.0, the PlugIn architecture of Nuendo, is the world's standard
for audio processing PlugIns. All major PlugIn manufacturers such as Waves,
TC Works, Prosoniq, Spectral Design, INA etc. already offer over 200 PlugIns
for Nuendo. ASIO, Steinberg's Audio Streaming Technology, also provides
high performance, and standardized access to a wide range of available
hard- and software. ASIO provides support for audio cards from simple
Stereo I/O solutions up to 48 individual I/Os with up to 24 Bit / 96kHz
quality. Additionally, ASIO provides Zero Latency Hardware Monitoring
and guaranteed sample-accurate sync to external devices. Nuendo synchronizes
video and audio devices via TLC, VITC and gives the user control over
most Sony 9-Pin device.
Nuendo is now available from Steinberg Dealers Worldwide for a MSRP
of US $1295.00
