Hello,
the Nuendo 6 mixer has been developed in parallel to Nuage. We planned for the renewal of the software mixer already for quite some time. When the Nuage development/design became more concrete, it also became obvious that an adaptation of the mixer would be required to guarantee seamless integration with Nuage. Things like window re-sizing for different screens have been part of the Nuage requirement list and found it’s way as permanent feature into Nuendo. Other things such as Block Mode are features just for Nuage users. The Channel Strip, for instance, has been a planned feature within the Cubase/Nuendo software development scope right from the beginning and wasn’t based on the Nuage development.
We recognize that certain aspects of the new mixer aren’t smooth to operate; however, with the latest updates we have achieved some progress. Nuendo 6.0.6 is in the making currently, again fixing and improving things related to the mixer and many other program aspects. A detailled list follows.
Thanks,
Timo
