NUAGE

To the client, the only thing that really matters is end product quality, and here’s where Nuage really delivers. In addition to a low-stress working environment for engineers and re-recording mixers, Nuage offers advanced processing capabilities and sublime sonic quality that makes a marked difference in the final sound.

Nuage Workspace units feature dimensions and design that are a perfect match for the Nuage Fader and Nuage Master units, allowing a keyboard, surround panner, 19 inch rack mount devices, and other custom extras to be added to a Nuage system while maintaining overall workflow and visual unity. Two Nuage Workspace units are available: a large model that is the same size as the Nuage fader unit, and a small model that can be added to a Nuage Master unit to match the width of a standard 24” monitor display.

Now that everyone is thoroughly familiar with computer trackpads, the Nuage Touch Slider will be easy. Simply slide a finger along the horizontal Touch Slider strip to shift Nuendo channels left or right in relation to the Nuage Fader channel strips, use flick gestures to quickly shift a larger range of channels, or use the “Bank Flick” feature to flick channels in groups of eight. There are also customizable channel layouts that bring important channels to the surface with just one button press. Lock your stem or master busses to the surface to access them at any time.

The TRANSPORT section controls are central to most editing processes, so they’re strategically located just above the jog wheel where the operator can easily manipulate both with minimum hand movement. The CONTROL ROOM section, providing direct access to Nuendo Control Room monitoring features, as well as the MONITOR SOURCE and CUE sections, are also located within easy reach above the transport controls, thoughtfully organized and grouped for fast, efficient, error-freeoperation.

Nuendo 6, with an all-new mixer window and expanded feature set, is the core of the Nuage Advanced Production System. Nuage includes refined Nuage Fader and Nuage Master control surfaces for intimate access to all Nuendo functions via an abundance of switches and encoders in a clear, comprehensive layout. Add a selection of extraordinary DSP-equipped Nuage I/O audio interfaces that communicate via a Dante digital audio network, plus a PCI-Express standard Dante Accelerator card for ultra low latency audio transmission with high channel counts, and you have the makings of an extremely versatile high-performance audio production system that promises unprecedented efficiency, quality, and productivity. Nuage Fader and Nuage Master units can be freely combined as required, and the three Nuage I/O models can be cascade connected to create systems accommodating a wide range of studio needs and budgets.

Nuage supports remote control of Yamaha’s MMP1 Studio Monitor Management System so that source selection, levels, downmix and dimmer switching, talkback, and other functions can be controlled directly from physical controls on a Nuage Master or Nuage Fader unit. And because these functions can be accessed even when there is no computer or DAW online, monitor section operation is as direct and immediate as on a mixing console.

Any standard 24” LCD monitor display* can be used to provide a smooth visual extension of the physical Nuage fader channel strips right into the Nuendo mixer window. The continuity between control surface and display achieved by the Extensive Console View concept keeps all controls and parameters in context so the operator can intuitively reach for the right fader, button, or knob while concentrating fully on the job at hand. 16 channels can be controlled at once with two encoders per channel, or all encoders can be mapped to one or two highlighted channels in the Channel Setting Mode. * Monitor display(s) are not included and must be supplied by the user.

With a modular architecture that lets you combine components you need to ideally support your application, plus network audio that allows you to lay out your system to match available infrastructure and installation requirements while maintaining undiminished audio transmission quality throughout, Nuage offers outstanding system flexibility and scalability.

To artists and musicians trying to lay down tracks in the studio, monitoring latency can be a huge problem that interferes with concentration and stifles creativity. The Nuage I/O units make latency issues a problem of the past thanks to advanced audio interface DSP hardware and “True Integrated Monitoring™” that reduces monitoring latency to well below the perception threshold of even the most sensitive performer. True Integrated Monitoring™ works flawlessly with the Nuendo Control Room monitoring features, a 32 monitor bus cascade, and a 16x16 monitor matrix that contributes to expandability and easy setup.

Since its introduction in 2000, Nuendo has become a hugely popular audio production tool, empowering professionals in the film, advertising, television, and media industries with higher levels of productivity. Nuendo 6, the core of the Nuage system, is a milestone release that comes with an enviable selection of features not found in any other postproduction software. EBU-compliant loudness measurement, some of the world’s most advanced surround panning and up-mixing capabilities, and full ADR Taker functionality add to this remarkable DAW'S enormous production potential.

The Dante Accelerator audio interface card can be installed in the computer running the Nuendo DAW to provide extra low-latency transfer of as many as 128 simultaneous channels of audio data, for a distinct performance advantage when communicating with Nuage I/O units. The Dante Accelerator card also features a secondary port that can be used to provide redundant connections* for failsafe reliability. *Available with firmware update scheduled in Summer 2013

Nuendo SyncStation is a hardware synchronizer that facilitates sample-accurate timecode synchronization between audio and video equipment. All Nuage interfaces include BNC and AES/EBU connectors for direct connection to SyncStation, as well as full support for the sample-accurate VST System Link. - Sample-accurate time code synchronization when used with Nuendo. - Allows MTP synchronization with many other DAWs (restrictions may apply according to DAW specifications and version). - Cross platform support for Mac OS X and Windows

Dante Accelerator, a core component of Nuage systems, is an innovative PCI Express audio interface card (Windows and Mac) that allows multi-channel audio transfer with low latency and high reliability. Working to transfer audio between a Nuage I/O and a computer based DAW, it can handle up to 128 input and output channels at 96 kHz with precise synchronization. A secondary port is available for redundant connections that ensure maximum reliability at all times. *The latest Mac Pro models (late 2013) do not have built-in PCIe slots, but are compatible with Thunderbolt expansion chassis from Magma and Sonnet Technologies that provide PCIe expansion supporting the Dante Accelerator card.
