I'm a loyal UA customer because it's the best platform that's cross-compatible between PC & Mac users. I work with both clients equally. Please make LUNA available for PC as soon as possible!
I have been using Luna for a while and I can say I’m speechless when it comes to create music with Shape- Spitfire- Strings ensemble..... so beautiful. Luna in my inspirational DAW where I sketch new ideas for recording later on in the studio. There we use Logic.
I'm in the exact same boat. So ready to ditch both of those programs and work in one eco-system. Pretty promising so far. Come on on Luna, you gotta deliver the goods now.
Cypher Music I know, but it’s should be in the next month or two and it would be nice if they had a large amount of comprehensive tutorials ready at launch because it’ll take third parties time to get caught up so UA needs to create these first.
Man, I've been wrestling with my computer/Pro Tools for the last 10 days with this very issue. I'm over it as well and figured the whole track at 96k, mix at 48k thing would just be the way to work for the time being. Maybe not any longer.
I’m very excited about this new DAW. I have recently switched to Reaper from Pro Tools and Digital Performer, which offered me an incredible flexibility, especially while scoring music for film. Being a diehard user of UAD products, I can’t wait for this new DAW.
So far loving everything I am seeing about Luna. Love that spill feature! So rad to just have the busses in view for a really tight view and being able to spill out the source tracks when needed.
They got it right!! It’s amazing!! Couple little things I miss from pro-tools....but the added features universal audio thought of makes it well worth the switch! I’m sure these couple things will get added in the next update! UAD are the best!
So funny - I too have found myself becoming a bit of a "slacker" with my music production output lately, thinking, "I'll really get going when LUNA is up and running fully." But we shouldn't curb our artistry while we wait for a company to release something cool. Lesson learned.
I would love to see UA's take on a DAW control surface as well. The SSL Nucleus is about as close to "perfect" as it gets right now, but obviously the price is outlandish. Avid's controllers are cool, but I'm sure there's much more you could do than what the market currently offers. From what I've seen, it seems like Luna also handles a lot--if not all--of what Console is meant for. That's already a huge plus.That said, a controller that takes advantage of that and seamlessly interacts with both would absolutely be a game changer. There's so much potential there.
This is looking fantastic as it's been presented so far. I'm so fortunate & glad that months ago I went with the UA Arrow, and the OX; I cannot wait to migrate to the Luna. Even something as - sometimes - hectic as the sample rate change, wow! Great job UA!
Taking the dive and investing in the Apollo Twin X Quad. Luna looks how I wish Logic Pro did. I can see a lot of people making the switch if all this goodness continues. A truly modern DAW, very well thought out. I LOVE the spill feature!
hey there? Do you know how to put effects only on a highlighted part of a track, like putting a low pass filter on the very begging of the song only on the tracks you highlight? pro tools has this option but i cant figure it out in luna
Been a huge fan and user of Luna since it came out but can’t belive I only heard the news about sample rates now - I record at 96k and am frequently maxing out, so being able to mix at 48 and then put it back to 96 to export without any loss of that 96k quality is HUGE!!!!
Luna is looking very intuitive and streamlined, very exciting. Are you planning on doing a comprehensive instructional video series to get users up to speed quickly? Thank you!
Looks really fast to use for straightforward stuff .. which is actually 95% of what I do in my studio where I do Jazz, Rock, Pop-Rock mostly live off the floor, no samples, no tuning. A great recording system with comps, file handling etc ... all looking great so far.
Auto save, sample rate conversion (so no chipmunk scenarios) and buffer. Flexible work flow with other workstations. Easier clip fades & lengths, pitch & gain changes made straight forward. Arrow key to plug in audition. Breadcrumb hints so things don’t get lost. Command G is great, as is spill. Midi Command D looks great taking my thoughts away from robot music fears. It’s beginning to look like a workstation built around your music & you, unlike a DAW built around a computer & programming. Can’t wait to Spring into action lol
Really love how they’ve made key operations linked and accessed from the track selection. That fader control is sweet! You guys gonna have a rep at Gearfest showing LUNA unless it will be released before then..
Just bought an Apollo x4 and looking forward to getting started on this. Love these ideas. Current Ableton Live user, but I can see myself using LUNA a lot in different contexts. Could I ask what low-profile MIDI keyboard is being used here?
And one final thing lol...please get the delay comp correct off the sends so you can actually use parallel compression and sidechains on plugin heavy tracks without phase issues and delay. PT refuses to address this.
This will be great. But having 2 Apollo 8P interfaces and using a iPad with Protools Eucon/Controller/Artist mix as I track and print within the DAW would have to be included. Right now, the Console works perfect. I sit at my live room and track by myself with acoustic drums ..Love the option to bounce tracks out and into your choice of DAW. Great video...Looks exciting....
I have an x8p and a twin quad running PT - couldn't get their native remote software to work for some reason. But a 3rd party desktop controller works pretty well for a similar setup. I'm often tracking by myself in a better-sounding room.
10:50 Suggestion! If you have quite a few clip based pitch changes you might get lost pretty fast trying to find them. This could be made easier if the colour in the clip header changed just for the clips where changes are made.
Hi! I've tested Luna. I think it's very promising. Is it possible to assign controller's knobs to "virtual knobs" of the plugins in Luna? Like the MIDI learn function in Ableton Live. I've searched on several forums but haven't found any information yet.
The file management / database component of LUNA might be the single biggest leap over the competition. If the audio engine and editing features are on par with (or better than) the other mainstream DAWs out there and - as one would assume - the UA plugin integration is streamlined even further, this is going to make a pretty compelling case for existing UA users to make a major switch. In any case, it will be very exciting to have a serious new DAW to shake up the market a bit and keep the three big A's on their toes.
Is there any selection based processing in LUNA? I just want to do some restoration of a sound clip but I can't seem to find info about that anywhere. Thank you!
DSP usage remains the same. help.uaudio.com/hc/en-us/articles/215262223-UAD-2-DSP-Chart. Nothing to announce at this time with regard to Windows. Yes, LUNA will work on original Apollos provided they have been upgraded with Thunderbolt cards. 👍
Is there any thing like "tab to transient" or something like "beat detective" and all that speed editing tools? is like the only thing that worry me about LUNA, everything is just amazingly perfect!! congratulations UA
Once tracks are volume automated, will you be able to turn each track up and down (with the automation moves) for fine tuning with the slider in the mix view? I can't seem to do this in Logic X and it drives me nuts! Luna looks great!
Higher resolution for the video would be great, especially when we're watching the screen with the interface elements. It looks like Luna is coming in strong, we expect no less from UA. Integration of protocols for control surfaces like Avid artist, Presonus faderport, etc, that would help a very natural use and migration for many of us.
I would love to see how Luna handles external instruments (and fx sends) and midi clocking as well as midi mapping for transport and basic mixing controls. Cheers!!
So far nothing that Logic does already but looking forward trying the not so called DAW when it arrives. One thing really missing here is an edit window. Very much needed when fiddling with midi notes.

Forget Luna. I need that Apollo X Pillow.
DS POET Feels exactly like a Neve pillow....really amazing!
DS POET I’m sure it’s for sale
LMAO
😅 good one man!
DS POET me tooo man!! UA we need a release date!!!!! Cmon fellas!!!!
I'm a loyal UA customer because it's the best platform that's cross-compatible between PC & Mac users. I work with both clients equally. Please make LUNA available for PC as soon as possible!
Presenter goes "wow" over active corners which have been standard for almost 2 decades now in other DAWs :D
stansteez - Yep, but as I say to 15 year old, most cars have 4 wheels and a steering wheel, let's see how it drives now.
Glad you’re shining light on the team!!
You know it Busy!! Appreciate your demos/vids!! 👍
Hi @BusyWorksBeats I watch your content all the time (Awesome stuff). Will you be reviewing LUNA on your channel in the near future?
love how hard they try to avoid saying "PRO TOOLS"
I have been using Luna for a while and I can say I’m speechless when it comes to create music with Shape- Spitfire- Strings ensemble..... so beautiful. Luna in my inspirational DAW where I sketch new ideas for recording later on in the studio. There we use Logic.
The comping playlist thing with key commands looks really cool, good job UA! Please make a video that goes into depth with Automation next!
If UAD gets this right I will finally ditch Pro Tools & Logic since I'm already heavily invested in the platform.
A mixing board with Apollo pre amps are my dream
We just need some UAD control surfaces with some nice faders and that's it
So...you give all your money to them instead.
Luiz Fernando agreed!
I'm in the exact same boat. So ready to ditch both of those programs and work in one eco-system. Pretty promising so far. Come on on Luna, you gotta deliver the goods now.
I wish that was 10x longer. Seriously. One of the great things about Logic is the number of tutorials on TH-cam which helped me learn how to use it.
Cypher Music I know, but it’s should be in the next month or two and it would be nice if they had a large amount of comprehensive tutorials ready at launch because it’ll take third parties time to get caught up so UA needs to create these first.
3 minutes in and they just solved my biggest current issue with my DAW (recording at 96k then mixing at 48 to save CPU)
Sweet!
Universal Audio I just invested in a big UA system a few moths ago (x8/new twin/2 satellites) now all this just seems like a massive bonus ahaha
👍
Man, I've been wrestling with my computer/Pro Tools for the last 10 days with this very issue. I'm over it as well and figured the whole track at 96k, mix at 48k thing would just be the way to work for the time being. Maybe not any longer.
About 5 or 6 years ago, I asked UA to make a desk, I’m glade you decided to make it a software console ! Keep up the good work !
I’m very excited about this new DAW. I have recently switched to Reaper from Pro Tools and Digital Performer, which offered me an incredible flexibility, especially while scoring music for film. Being a diehard user of UAD products, I can’t wait for this new DAW.
So far loving everything I am seeing about Luna. Love that spill feature! So rad to just have the busses in view for a really tight view and being able to spill out the source tracks when needed.
Indeed!
Very cool, us UA windows peeps deserve it asap!
Great work Connor. So nice to hear an articulate explanation. Looks awesome!
👍
Good luck catching up to Studio One.....wonderful quick and easy work flow.
Wow, so many exciting features no one ever thought of... :D
As a multiple Apollo owner I'm pretty stoked for this -- can't wait til it's available. Bye, bye Pro Tools monthly subscription.
real time wave form previews.... im in love
I'm quickly falling in love with Luna. Cheers to UA for making another great product!
Thanks Dan!
They got it right!! It’s amazing!! Couple little things I miss from pro-tools....but the added features universal audio thought of makes it well worth the switch! I’m sure these couple things will get added in the next update! UAD are the best!
SPILL is AMAZING!!! What an amazing feature. So ready for this. :)
I am so pumped for this. Can't wait for download day
Make it for Windows too, support VST and VSTi Integration and this will be my new main DAW.
yeah boiiii
Theres always Reaper 6 which does the same thing and more
I really doubt they'd make a Windows product. I know it's 2020 and all, but some companies if they had a choice, would stick to Apple.
@@tonylancer7367 At least one of their emails said Apple to start with, but Windows later.
at least make it work for bootcamp windows 10 on macbook pro. a lot of producer use Win10 because theres more VSTs
I’ve actually stopped mixing songs because I’m waiting for this to come out so let’s get it going uad
I haven't stopped and instead I just get mad every time I'm meddling in Pro Tools with crap lag
So funny - I too have found myself becoming a bit of a "slacker" with my music production output lately, thinking, "I'll really get going when LUNA is up and running fully." But we shouldn't curb our artistry while we wait for a company to release something cool. Lesson learned.
That Spill feature is Golden
👍
I would love to see UA's take on a DAW control surface as well. The SSL Nucleus is about as close to "perfect" as it gets right now, but obviously the price is outlandish. Avid's controllers are cool, but I'm sure there's much more you could do than what the market currently offers.

Looks like a beast with some really advanced IT capabilities speeding up a workflow
Been a die hard UAD fan since 2002! Can’t wait for LUNA! Will I be able to use plug ins like Fabfilter and Soothe in LUNA? Or is it UAD plug ins only?
Oh yeah!! All AU plugins-Waves, Slate, Soundtoys, FabFilter, Soothe, etc.....
@@UniversalAudio Thank you! :) I''m finally getting the hang of it! Love it
Love the UI - nice and clean. Looks very similar to LPX.
More demo like this, please!! Can't wait for Luna launching...
This is looking fantastic as it's been presented so far. I'm so fortunate & glad that months ago I went with the UA Arrow, and the OX; I cannot wait to migrate to the Luna. Even something as - sometimes - hectic as the sample rate change, wow! Great job UA!
Thanks Michal!
@@UniversalAudio You are most welcome - well deserved!
👍
Its feels like they've actually been listening to users issues with Ableton, Logic, and Pro Tools and then addressed them with LUNA
Taking the dive and investing in the Apollo Twin X Quad. Luna looks how I wish Logic Pro did. I can see a lot of people making the switch if all this goodness continues. A truly modern DAW, very well thought out. I LOVE the spill feature!
🥂
This particular conversation is my favorite .. because it’s the nuts and bolts of the software
hey there? Do you know how to put effects only on a highlighted part of a track, like putting a low pass filter on the very begging of the song only on the tracks you highlight? pro tools has this option but i cant figure it out in luna
I'll use it when it's released for Windows 10 Pro xD
Been a huge fan and user of Luna since it came out but can’t belive I only heard the news about sample rates now - I record at 96k and am frequently maxing out, so being able to mix at 48 and then put it back to 96 to export without any loss of that 96k quality is HUGE!!!!
Just be careful you don't make a mix at 48 that won't play/render at 96!
Incredible job as always guys
Thanks!
Luna is looking very intuitive and streamlined, very exciting. Are you planning on doing a comprehensive instructional video series to get users up to speed quickly? Thank you!
Indeed we will!
Head nod master. I can’t unsee it now.
........it became annoying about 4min in..........gonna tag him a drummer
I am so waiting for it! LUNA looks so powerful!
👍
Just joined the UAD world and am loving LUNA! Also I want that Apollo Twin pillow LOL
Welcome!! And thanks for the support!
Thank you Universal Audio. Truly, I love you lol.
😍
I can’t wait. Is external hardware support on the roadmap? Would love to be able to use my summing mixer to add some glue to the mix with Luna....
Hey Maulley G, summing mixers are good to go now. Delay compensated hardware inserts won't be in V1, but we know how important that is for some users.
cool video. Excited to start diving into it.
UA WE NEED A RELEASE DATE, we all got WORK TO DO!!
Still working on it!
Any chance you guys can show a demo of automation features/fuctions?
Good suggestion for a future vid!! Stay tuned, we have lots more coming! 👍
Looks really fast to use for straightforward stuff .. which is actually 95% of what I do in my studio where I do Jazz, Rock, Pop-Rock mostly live off the floor, no samples, no tuning. A great recording system with comps, file handling etc ... all looking great so far.

Luna appears at 9:13
Thank you

Just bought an Apollo x4 and looking forward to getting started on this. Love these ideas. Current Ableton Live user, but I can see myself using LUNA a lot in different contexts. Could I ask what low-profile MIDI keyboard is being used here?
That was a Cme xkey.
My next interface is UAD. hope to get one soon and record another hit song. :)
Do it!! 👍
11:10 that cable management
And one final thing lol...please get the delay comp correct off the sends so you can actually use parallel compression and sidechains on plugin heavy tracks without phase issues and delay. PT refuses to address this.
No sidechaining in V1
You could just freeze your tracks in some cases, that might help
@Score Mix nope most definitely on :-D
Luna = Logic Pro & Pro Tools had a baby :)
Joey Sherrett True!
This will be great. But having 2 Apollo 8P interfaces and using a iPad with Protools Eucon/Controller/Artist mix as I track and print within the DAW would have to be included.

NICE!! Congrats from Brazil!! abracos
Luna is amazing right from the start...btw what is that little keyboard on the desk.....i want one that small :)
When recording with Luna Is the audio recording through any of the signal chain? or are all Extensions and processing after audio?
I need those couch pillows!!!
10:50 Suggestion! If you have quite a few clip based pitch changes you might get lost pretty fast trying to find them. This could be made easier if the colour in the clip header changed just for the clips where changes are made.
Great suggestion!

Not in V1. Please submit as feedback via the built in feedback button in the upper right hand corner of LUNA.
The file management / database component of LUNA might be the single biggest leap over the competition. If the audio engine and editing features are on par with (or better than) the other mainstream DAWs out there and - as one would assume - the UA plugin integration is streamlined even further, this is going to make a pretty compelling case for existing UA users to make a major switch. In any case, it will be very exciting to have a serious new DAW to shake up the market a bit and keep the three big A's on their toes.
Indeed John! LUNA, being a V1 product, won't have everything everyone needs/wants on day 1, but we have big plans!! 👍
cool lots of cubase features !!
So pumped for this 🙌
This is the demo I’ve been anticipating; MIDI.
The Moog instrument is included, or a plug-in purchase?
Moog is a paid option.
that midi in the timeline is such a good idea...
Will there be mix snapshots on release? So far i'm excited for the editing features seems very similar to cubase which I use mainly
Not in V1, but LUNA has everything you'd expect automation-wise. 👍
Have always been working with Protools. But I'm very tempted to try out Luna. So does it come for "free" with all UA audio interfaces??
Is there any selection based processing in LUNA? I just want to do some restoration of a sound clip but I can't seem to find info about that anywhere. Thank you!
Very very cool i can't see the time to put my hands on and make my review for brazillian people🇧🇷 🙏🙏🙏🔥🔥🔥
I love my Apollo Twin quad and their wonderful plugins. will all my Kontakt virtual instruments library will work on Luna?
Sure, any Audio Units plugin or instrument. No multi-out support in V1 though.
looking forward guyz!
Great vid, thanks!
You're welcome!
Their data management system sound like how a Logic session (stored).
Such a NATURAL feeling of duplicating those midi clips!
What about the plugin count? And when will it be available for windows and will it work with apollo firewire/tb3 option card?
DSP usage remains the same. help.uaudio.com/hc/en-us/articles/215262223-UAD-2-DSP-Chart. Nothing to announce at this time with regard to Windows. Yes, LUNA will work on original Apollos provided they have been upgraded with Thunderbolt cards. 👍
I need those pillows. NOW
I freakin love the idea that I don't have to go to my file menu to fade.
Please include a video description of how to use hardware inserts.
Looking forward to it. E l I t e
MG The Future I’m pump 4 This 2 lol
Cant wait for this to drop...so you and CMP can give us the real spit on this LUNA system. SPICEY SUNDAYS! yessir
When will pc users see Luna?
Nothing to announce at this time, but we're listening to our users.
Yes, please. Come on, guys, 2020, there are lots of UAD thunderbolt Windows users
Don't hold your breath. UAD has a 2 year average follow up for Windows.
Is there any thing like "tab to transient" or something like "beat detective" and all that speed editing tools? is like the only thing that worry me about LUNA, everything is just amazingly perfect!! congratulations UA
Tab to transient, yes, BT, not in V1.
Nothing (except the no buffersize) in this is groundbreaking/new tho. Still like it ;D
Once tracks are volume automated, will you be able to turn each track up and down (with the automation moves) for fine tuning with the slider in the mix view? I can't seem to do this in Logic X and it drives me nuts! Luna looks great!
Absolutely! Super easy to do in LUNA.
Higher resolution for the video would be great, especially when we're watching the screen with the interface elements. It looks like Luna is coming in strong, we expect no less from UA. Integration of protocols for control surfaces like Avid artist, Presonus faderport, etc, that would help a very natural use and migration for many of us.
You can set it up to 1080p in the video preferences. That should be enough.
I would love to see how Luna handles external instruments (and fx sends) and midi clocking as well as midi mapping for transport and basic mixing controls. Cheers!!
I already love it😀
Are there any software-only (non-DSP) effects, or does everything have to go to the DSP?
Hi Robert, LUNA app is native as are LUNA Extensions and LUNA Instruments. But all UAD2 plugins run on DSP.
Hello, I would like to see a video explaining how to configure the apollo 4x interface in macos, macbook please
Does the preset preview apply to all virtual instruments? Or is this only for Luna plugins?
All.
Is the recording at 96k when tracking then dropping back down to 48 a game changer? Or do other DAWs already do that?
POW, can't wait!
So far nothing that Logic does already but looking forward trying the not so called DAW when it arrives.
One thing really missing here is an edit window. Very much needed when fiddling with midi notes.
Don't laugh but I need that Apollo X pillow in my life.
Many want it!! 😄
Yes, yes, amazing as usual from UA. But pray tell, when will us UA windows users get it? I'm in guys.....sort us out please!
This sounds amazing! How can I get one of those pillows?
I'd love to hear even more about Midi! Is there midi bussing available? Can you "midi arm" more than a single track at a time?
Stay tuned for more videos as we approach launch. And yes, you can arm more than one MIDI track at a time. 👍
Ok, so there's been quite a few vid's on the audio side of Luna, how about more on midi, and specifically any automation features?
This new Connor vid has MIDI in it, and stay tuned for more!
