and actually it's even more suitable for Protools 11 now than the Control 24 or Pro Control you could buy back in the day when the DM2000 was released.īTW: It's not a Yamaha/Steinberg collaboration. In one of the studios, I'm still using a $30K DM2000, and control Protools in HUI with it and guess what? it's still rock solid. It's just good to know there's a backup plan to use it with Protools too (even if it's just with a Native version of Protools to exchange some sessions).ģ) Yamaha hardware history is actually really good. and where DAW choice is less and less relevant these days.Ģ) If you buy Nuage it's firstly to use it with Nuendo/Cubase. For $50K at Avid, you only have a S6 M10 24 faders (without Displays, without PT HDX station).ġ) At this price, Yamaha/Steinberg propose a solution not only for post, but also for Music market that is completely abandoned by Avid now. total: at least $100K, probably $170K+ for a 48 faders solution. $50K for a 48 faders solution.įor similar setup with avid, you need the S6 M40 32 faders with displays for $112K (or $90K for 5 knobs per channel) + the price of a Protools HDX station. $35K Nuage is for a full 32 faders system with displays and including Nuendo station. I'm not trying to make a campaign for AVID but the truth is that AVID nailed down Hands down for AVID, f**k off Steinberg.Īnd there it goes it works with CUBASE 6.5 and NUENDO 5.5 Why?!?!?.because Yamaha and Steinberg are stupid enough to anounce a new product and more than a year after that product is still not out on the market.I'm a Cubase user since the first version, but this thing finally made me turn around and make the big change to ProTools, nothing to loose, more to gain in fact.I recently lost my Cubase USB dongle so guess what, i need to pay for a new Cubase package even i'm buying for more than 10 years all the Cubase upgrades.

I was waiting so bad for this thing called NUAGE, but sorry my friends, i'm switching to ProTools and AVID S6.

Such bad marketing.There is so much talking about Nuage and still nothing out there, instead AVID one more time took the lead and came down to the ground with the new AVID S6.
