NUAGE
A Total Studio Environment
Two types of control surface units can be used individually or in combination, according to system needs. Three types of high-end audio interface are available, usable individually or in combination as required: 16-channel analog, 16-channel digital, and 8-channel analog + 8-channel digital
Workspace units for a streamlined and productive working environment
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.
Ultra-low latency and solid reliability with high channel counts
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
Ready for Large MultiDAW Projects
A Nuage system can connect to up to four* DAWs that can be brought online individually from the Nuage Fader DAW SELECT controls. The various DAWs can be located in separate studios or machine rooms where they are used to handle separate elements of a large project, and then brought together at the Nuage system for final assembly and editing. And since Nuage includes HUI control compatibility, it provides basic access to any HUI compatible DAW that you might want to use as a player or dubber. * Up to three DAWs with the initial firmware, increasing to four DAWs with a subsequent firmware update.

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.

Sample-accurate timecode synchronization for audio and video. - NUENDO SYNCSTATION -
Precision machined from solid high-quality stainless steel stock, this jog wheel contributes to effortless editing and transport control with weight, inertia, and comfort that can make even marathon editing sessions a pleasure. Resolution is notably higher than the average editing jog wheel too, for unmatched accuracy in controlling forward and reverse playback at up to 8x speed, scrubbing, object and range selection, zoom, fades, and more.
NUAGE System Components
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.
Unparalleled Workflow Efficiency
A sleek user interface that combines time-tested elements with thoroughly researched and proven innovations, plus comprehensive visual feedback, give Nuage components intuitive, stress-free operability that significantly enhances productivity.
A Brilliant Fusion of Hardware & Software
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.
Touch Slider for Fast Channel Access

Comprehensive, Easy-access Control Layout
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.

Enhanced Monitor Control
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.
Outstanding Sonic Quality Delivers Full System Potential

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.
Workspace units for a streamlined and productive working environment
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.
