You can most easily work to picture within Nuendo - actually that's what it was originally made for. Its Wave-Editor is quite powerfull, but you won't need it as almost everything can be done on the Project-level, down to an accuracy of a single sample. Two different Edit-modes allow a scrubbing of audio-to-picture, or "ordinary" audio scrubbing, for example. ... Too many great solutions to tell here (hey, I don't get paid for that! [;)] ...)

To Mathis - Transfer to and from ProT**ls is a problem - but only as far as PT itself is concerned [H] ... Nuendo reads and writes OMF1, OMF2, OpenTL, AES-31, And I think even AAF in the meantime. With additional translation-software you can actually even import PT-sessions directly.

To Nick - Don't think of Nuendo as "the other Logic". It's in fact the better ProT**ls. (Uh - this was not the question ... yes, I did SFX and more with Nuendo, about hundred large and small projects within the last five years.

Okay, you've convinced me to take another look. [:)]

So my advice: If you stay completely inside your workstation and have no transfer of EDLs then Nintendo is certainly well suited. But if you have to deliver and recieve sessions, triple-check every worst case scenario.
I know, Dietz, it´s never the the fault of the other side, it IS Avid which is constantly changing their OMF and is protective about the changes. And even company-internal from Avid to Protool$ there is always some stupid hassle.

Nintendo! [[:|]]

You know, I thought I could tease Dietz a little bit but he seems quite resistant...

hehehe ... I think I heard this joke being cracked for the first time about six years ago ... my willingness to get in rage about it has reached an unbelievably low level since then ... [+o(]

So many jokes, so little... [:D]

Sydec Soundscape
(www.sydec.be)

easy, powerful, low cost, vst compatible and more ...

You must check this ... I made a comparison with a Protools ... I think you know my choice [:P] .

Sydec is, for me, a VSL-like company : very friendly with a very good service ... for a great product.

Thanks

Dietz,
with Steinbergs aquisition by Yamaha and their 'studioconnection' this whole Nuendo thing might go to an amazing next level. Maybe your nose was very right from its beginning on...

While you are perfectly right with the other things you mentioned ;-] I think you got the acquisition-thing the wrong way - Steinberg was bought by Pinnacle, not Yamaha (at least that was the last thing I know ...)

All the best,

Ooooooooooo, you haven't been to the Nuendo forum today then [8-)]

[[:|]] .... oh-oh .... you are right, this forum here is my first (and last) stop each time I'm online ...

I work not on Nuendo but on Cubase SX3 which is more a music platform than a sound designing platform; It works great with video-files - sync etc (reads any format) BUT I have one problem on PC; The video monitor can only be on screen while MAC users can have an external video monitor.

Have thought of buying Nuendo because Protools is so expensive.

Best, Jorgen.

Not strictly speaking so. If you have a second (or even 3rd if your graphics card supports it) computer monitor, then you can move the video screen over to it. I even believe that you can output to a TV screen, although I haven't tried this.
