Neundo 11 Atmos Renderer (Image credit: Steinberg) What did you say? This is fine when setting up for a new project, but can be tricky if you wish to convert an existing project created using an unsupported configuration. If there’s any downside it’s that the internal Dolby Atmos renderer doesn’t support all main mix output configurations (2.0, 5.1, 5.1.4, 7.1 and 7.1.4 are supported). Also, creating a finished multichannel ADM wave file involves just a click-or-two. Nuendo has been able to work with external Dolby Atmos renderers – hardware and software – for a while, and still can, but the new built-in renderer brings the entire Dolby Atmos production pipeline under one roof, along with attendant workflow improvements.įor example, tracks in your project can be added to the Atmos configuration with just a click or two and will bring with them any panning automation that you have set up on the source track. It also solves the problems associated with trying to produce a surround sound mix that will remain convincing (or as convincing as possible) irrespective of the surround configuration and speaker layout used for playback. For those who don’t know, Dolby Atmos is a multichannel surround sound technology that includes height channels alongside the regular front-back/left-right channels.

Nuendo 11’s biggest headline-grabber is that it now has a built-in Dolby Atmos renderer.
