Hello, I barely write comments to youtube videos, but just wanted to say how much I enjoyed your video. There is something very refreshing compared to the other style of educational videos out there. So thank you! Very informative for me
In Nuendo I find the best way to monitor a reference mix is using the "Monitor Sources" function. I route my reference track to separate output bus, and add this bus as a monitor source.
Thanks. My approach is to create shorter videos on specific points, as I learn them. I do cover a lot of this in this video: Atmos Mixing: Object Beds and Multi-objects th-cam.com/video/rEKJHyQ64eI/w-d-xo.html
I love this, I hadn't thought of the downmix possibilities in CR. If they mimic the settings in the Dolby Atmos renderer, they should (maybe) show us how the mix will sound in a non-binaural setting! Of course it's unclear which version of the song a streaming service will play on a non-Atmos device (the mixdown or the "true" stereo mix, if there is one). ❤
Fantastic video, very informative, I have used the control room for a long time, but recently when I worked on 5.1, I wanted to use a few new plugins to monitor 5.1 on Headphones. "Waves NX" has a plugin version "5.1/Stereo"; other plugins do not have this feature. So I wonder how to use a 5.1 plugin such as the "dearVR Monitor" on the control room headphones.
Great Video :-) I have been following all your videos for a while now :-) I take it your not using any dedicated controller system just Nuendo and the Steinberg interface for your outputs to your speakers? Best wishes
Thanks so much. You're correct about not using a dedicated controller. Having realized Atmos will probably never be more to me than a hobby interest for me personally in my situation, a controller remains a "nice-to-have". I have installed and set up SoundID Reference Multichannel on the 21-day free trial. It's a great program and did improve my sound somewhat. Not sure I'll spend the money yet.
@@balladeerstudio I am part of a group of pro producers who are looking at getting into Dolby Atmos and we have talked to many pros about it :-) but your videos give me especially some hope that we can find a more budget way into mixing in dolby atmos.. so we can get a grip without putting as on the bread line :-) I am hoping Someone like steinberg will bring out an interface that will work with cubase/Nuendo using only there equipment. Thank you keep up the great work.
@@balladeerstudio Thank you for the reply one quick question is it easy enough to route the channels in the dolby Render to the outputs of the Steinberg interface outs ? Sorry if this is a silly Question as i am just starting wit the dolby render kind regards kirk QFX
Good evening, is there a method please to separate general listening "stereo out" and listening to the media bay? in other words I want to route the sound of the media bay separately in another audio track? I heard that it is feasible from the "control room" but it seems very complicated for a beginner A video explaining the procedure would be great
As I remember, Nuendo's Dolby Renderer only works in 7.1.4. So you need to have an output channel set to 7.1.4. But you don't need to have a hardware interface that supports that if you're not mixing with speakers. You need the Dolby Renderer in order to output binaural from the renderer. I hope that helps.
@@balladeerstudio Thanks, I ended up buying Cubase and Steinberg's own literature is wrong about Nuendo vs Cubase. Previously 5.1 was the limit but with 12 Cubase goes up to 7.1.4 so it works like Nuendo does. I was confused because on the site it said Cubase was only capable of 5.1. Currently I set it up so my monitors (headphones ) are stereo in control room but the outputs (for the renderer) is set to 7.1.4. So it downmixes post renderer to the control room, which works fine because the Binaural setting is 2 channel stereo output anyway and the authoring is through the renderer so isn't affected by the monitoring buses.
Hello from Norway! I just wondered; Is it possible to bypass decoding on the AT300 (direct mode) when you are listening on your DAW mix? I assume its always connected avoiding cable swaps? Im just starting to gather all the bits and pieces to start some Atmos mixing. Great advices by the way - I think we can make good atmos music without beeing "Dolby Certified" :)
Hi Tom! I don't listen to my DAW through the AVR. It's the other way around. Nuendo is configured to connect directly to the speakers through Control Room. When I listen to the AVR, it is a 7.1.4 input to Nuendo that I monitor with Control Room. Hope that helps.
Control room was a game changes when it came out HOWEVER, it's been YEARS and Steinberg is still limiting us to 4 Cue mixes which is not enough when tracking to most basic rhythm section (Drums, Bass, Guitar, Piano, Vocals). Why can't the cue mixes be only limited to the amount of outputs we have? isn't the who idea is to be able to send as many Cue mixes your outputs allow? Steinberg please open the option for more Cue Mixes so we can use the full potential Cubase has!

So thank you! Very informative for me
I just watched another video stating you can’t use Control Room for Dolby Atmos, so great to see you have it all figured out, very helpful!
Where? The only thing the manual says is that you can't export via the export window. You simply have to use the ADM creator.
Wonderful video! Helps very much to understand how to use control room for multiple types of setups. Thank you
Thats very informative Video - Well done!
Great video! About the downmix settings, I heard an engineer say it's best to put the sides and OHs to 0dB for Stereo downmixing.
In Nuendo I find the best way to monitor a reference mix is using the "Monitor Sources" function. I route my reference track to separate output bus, and add this bus as a monitor source.
Love it. Such powerful features in CR.
Can you please make a longer ground up educational tutorial on how to set up an Atmos production basics in Nuendo?

Hello ! - How to bring multichannel to youtube videos ? Can you make a video about it, please ?

Do I have to have an interface with 16 channel or can I do Dolby AtmoS 7.1.6 with headset over a 2channel interface

@@QFXmusic The reason you can hear the renderer is because it outputs to a 7.1.4 buss. It's explained in my videos, and others' as well. Good luck.
That would be lovely if you can show how to setup eq manually (as a plugin maybe i CR) for atmos? Thanks for great materials!
Maybe TRACT from waves?

How to make sure that the red knob does not affect the volume level of the green knob
Welcome to the channel! I don't understand the question. What green knob?
@@balladeerstudio Phones knob. But it looks like it's because of my sound card.
If I am just mixing Binaural do I need to set control room to that format (7.1.4) or stereo (as the renderer puts out binaural.
As I remember, Nuendo's Dolby Renderer only works in 7.1.4. So you need to have an output channel set to 7.1.4. But you don't need to have a hardware interface that supports that if you're not mixing with speakers. You need the Dolby Renderer in order to output binaural from the renderer. I hope that helps.
