Steinberg is ending the year with a new shine: Nuendo 11. With ADM authoring for Dolby\u00ae Atmos\u00ae, Netflix\u00ae Loudness Meter, plus many other feature additions and workflow enhancements, the latest version sees Nuendo reinforcing its status as the gold standard for professional audio production.<\/p>\n

First revealed in November, Steinberg today announces the immediate availability of its much-anticipated premium media production system, Nuendo 11.<\/p>\n

At the heart of Nuendo is two decades of technological advancements, which make it the outstanding DAW it is today. At the turn of the millennium, the first version introduced native technologies with peerless audio and surround sound tools to the pro audio industry. Now, Nuendo is at the heart of countless audio production facilities, delivering dedicated workflows and features to professionals around the world.<\/p>\n

Today\u2019s gold standard<\/strong>
\nNuendo 11 delivers new and enhanced features, including dedicated tools for Dolby Atmos and Netflix productions along with new design tools and exclusive content. A major update
\non this scale confirms Steinberg\u2019s commitment to keep advancing Nuendo\u2019s status as the gold standard for professional audio production.<\/p>\n

ADM authoring for Dolby Atmos is one of the highlights included in Nuendo 11. With this module and its integrated Renderer for Dolby Atmos, content can easily be created according to Dolby Atmos specifications, allowing producers to work within Nuendo while eliminating the need for further software or external hardware.<\/p>\n

Senior Product Manager, Content Creation, at Dolby Laboratories, Jordan Glasgow commented: \u201cNuendo 11 is a huge step forward for Dolby Atmos content creation. Having all this functionality inside of Nuendo really streamlines the workflow, as you no longer need to toggle between applications or wait for your final output file to print in real time. I think this release is definitely going to make a lot of Dolby Atmos content creators very happy.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Nuendo now includes an entire metering plug-in suite with SuperVision. Providing more than 20 different display modules for level metering, loudness measurement and analysis, SuperVision is extremely flexible and offers customizable settings and layouts for up to nine module slots.<\/p>\n

More metering options are integrated with the Netflix Loudness Meter and Intelligibility Meter. To ensure consistency of content production, the Netflix Loudness Meter in Nuendo 11 is calibrated to the official Sound Mix Specifications and Best Practices, measuring the dialog-gated loudness as required by Netflix. Based on algorithms developed by the Oldenburg branch of the Fraunhofer IDMT in Germany, the new AI-powered Intelligibility Meter indicates in real time the effort of the listener to understand speech in the mix.
\nJob Queues is a tremendous time-saver, allowing engineers to enter up to 20 different tasks in a list. This means that stems are individually exported together with all the settings available in the Export Audio Mixdown dialog, but the tasks are processed in one single action.<\/p>\n

Nuendo 11 also adds many enhancements to its sound design tools. The MultiTap Delay now supports up to 7.1 surround sound. Frequency 2 offers dynamic EQ, with the filter nodes of the eight available bands responding to the input signal and also offering independent side-chaining. The new Multiband Imager places up to four bands in different locations within the stereo image. The new Squasher compresses the input signal in up to three bands, with an individual gate, saturation effect and independent side-chaining. The enhanced Sampler Track now slices samples and includes two global LFOs.<\/p>\n

SpectraLayers One is a simplified version of the acclaimed spectral editing software SpectraLayers Pro 7. SpectraLayers One offers a spectrogram view of the audio tracks in Nuendo, including selection, editing and display tools that allow intricate editing to improve dialog and location audio.<\/p>\n

VST Connect SE 5, the remote recording plug-in already included in Nuendo, now supports HiDPI and offers a redesigned interface with scalable window.<\/p>\n

Nuendo 11 also has several new tools for musicians. The Scale Assistant lets users set the scale of the music, which is then adjusted accordingly within the newly enhanced Key Editor, which now displays Global Tracks. Along with other improvements, the Score Editor includes Note Length and Velocity Overlays to edit notes, the new Property tab for easy access to notation settings and support for Dorico\u2019s beautiful Bravura and Petaluma fonts.
\nNuendo 11 provides many additional workflow and performance enhancements, including:
\n\u2022 ARA improvements
\n\u2022 Variable DPI on Windows 10 computers
\n\u2022 Optimized GUI on macOS computers
\n\u2022 Extended Eucon integration

\n\u2022 Further refinements to continue to facilitate working with Nuendo<\/p>\n
