I was at NAB this week and there was a Yamaha booth with a Nuage controller hooked up to Nuendo 10 running on a mac. I had quite the conversation with their Nuendo/Steinberg guy about their whole take on Nuendo. Seems my instincts were right. They're really pushing for the smaller post houses, 1/2/3 man shops that take audio post from soup to nuts where everything happens at a single facility. It was a fun talk with him as I work at a multi-room post house with all HDX rooms, and now have Nuendo at home. They really are on to some cool workflows..., but there's still a handful of things that IMO they need to address if they want to really penetrate that market in regards to QUICK workflows.
FWIW, the new doppler plugin was really cool..., and the Nuage controller is god damn amazing. I begged and pleaded for a 'little brother' kind of unit that would be more of a competitor to the Avid C24 or S3. Something in the $5k - $10k range. He said he was begging and pleading with Yamaha to do the same as well..., but that (as of right now) they aren't interested. Still though, that Nuage controller with Nuendo combined with PLE commands was SUPER SLICK!!!
