Chapter 11: DAW Integration 73
Steinberg Nuendo
Steinberg’s optional EUCON device driver enables fully integrated control of all of Nuendo’s functions from the MC control
surface, including channel operations from the CM408T channel strips (System 5 MC).
Configuration
To enable Nuendo to work with the MC you must obtain a Nuendo EUCON Adapter license from Euphonix and download it to
your Syncrosoft USB protection device (dongle)
To obtain a Nuendo EUCON Adapter license:
1 Close all open applications.
2 Start the Nuendo License Control Center by choosing Start Menu > Steinberg Nuendo 4 > License Control Center.
3 Choose License Download from the Wizards menu.
4 Choose License Transfer to transfer an existing Nuendo EUCON license to a new USB dongle.
5 Enter the activation code for Nuendo EUCON provided by Avid.
6 Make sure you are downloading the correct license, then click Next.
7 Make sure your USB dongle is attached to your workstation, select the target device to which the license will be assigned, and
click Next.
8 Click Download to transfer the license onto your USB dongle.
9 Close the wizard and open Nuendo.
The Nuendo EUCON Adapter must be installed during the EUCON-WS software installation. Note that this is the MC Client
Nuendo adapter. For Nuendo to communicate with the MC, Nuendo’s EUCON device must be added in the Device Setup dialog.
To add the Nuendo EUCON device to Device Setup:
1 Choose Device Setup from the Nuendo Devices menu.
2 Click the + button (add) on the top left. A pop-up list of devices appears. EUCON should appear near the top of the list. If not,
close Nuendo and use the EUCON Workstation installer to install the Nuendo EUCON Adapter (this is optional in Windows in-
staller; it installs by default with the Mac installer).
3 Select EUCON from the pop-up list.
The EUCON device is added and the MC surface immediately updates with the Nuendo default App Set. The MC faders and Soft
Knobs display track functions. On the System 5 MC, Nuendo channels are displayed on the CM408T strips, beginning with chan-
nel 1 on the left-most strip.
Nuendo Monitor Setup
The MC Monitors section can control the Nuendo Control Room Mixer. The Monitors and Control Room sections (top-left of the
MC surface) mirror their related controls in Nuendo: Adjusting the MC controls updates Nuendo controls and vice versa.
To set up the Control Room in Nuendo:
1 In Nuendo, choose Devices > VST Connections.
2 Click Studio (right-most tab).
3 Click Enable Control Room at the top-right of the window.
The Nuendo Control Room Mixer is now enabled. You may now set up the monitoring busses and talkback source.
4 Right-click in the window below Bus Name.
