Bruce Aisher checks out the latest version of Steinberg’s well-established alternative to Cubase

Steinberg Nuendo 10 £860

Cubase has been around for 30 years, with initial versions supporting only MIDI. Audio recording, editing, and playback, as well as plugins and virtual instruments, did not arrive until some time later. It’s therefore interesting to note that its partner product Nuendo has been around for 20 years, and in many respects has set the groundwork for Cubase as we know it today. Aimed originally at the post-production audio market (and with some of the music creation features of Cubase as an optional add-on), it’s now firmly placed as a high-end, higher-priced, superset of it, and one that has embraced a range of video and game audio features that wouldn’t necessarily be required for the average ‘music-only’ user out there.

Nu features

Intriguingly, Nuendo 10 follows on from Nuendo 8, making the relationship between Cubase and Nuendo versions somewhat confusing – there are features that remain Nuendo-only, while others will be tested in one DAW before making it to the other.
