SFP routing joining Samp & Nuendo?

Hangee_77 · Post by **Hangee_77** » Thu Jan 25, 2007 6:01 pm

I have finished my music in Nuendo2 (all MIDI / VSTis) and now I want to do the tracking for all individual MIDI / VSTis channels into Audio channels using Samplitude8.
Anyone know how to do this?
Is there a way to connect the two & sync them? using SFP routing maybe?

Wouldn't it be easier to just import the MIDI into Samp and then track? Seems a really long-winded way of going about things. Is there a specific reason you want to track in Samp? Dunno about Samp 8 but 9 is fine loading VSTis and the MIDI editing is much improved.

sure, you could use asio for nuendo and 24bit wav for sam. connect asio sources to wav dests, maybe with a mixer between for monitoring purposes.

but you could do all your tracking in nuendo, mix in scope and then recording stereo into sam for cd editing. that'd be using the strongest part of each element...or that's how i prefer to work. if you're looking for the best sound, to my ears, that'd be it.

Actually the reason I want to use Samp for tracking is because I heard that Samp has 1dB headroom over the Nuendo (correct me if I am wrong).....if I can make the level hotter, why not?

I am still skeptical on Samp for MIDI, because I have a lot of MIDI data editing/routing (VSL performance tools) that has already set in Nuendo....so may be I just leave the MIDI in Nuendo.

So again I can just open the Nuendo for MIDI & Samp for audio tracking with the help of SFP routing?
Is there a way to sync both apps, for example: I press one button & both apps running in sync, so I can record all the audio tracks in sync as well?

Thanks.

Doubt you can run two programs like that at the same time in sync. Why not just record the MIDI parts as a wav and then import all the wavs into Samplitude and then buss to Scope from there? As much as i am thinking of going over to Samp, 1dB wouldn't be my selling point - if i had Nuendo and was keeping it i would just track in that (i have SX but i think its going soon).

you can sync via midi clock, through different sequencer midi ports.

believe me, just load the MIDI tracks et. al into Samplitude and go from there.
You won't be disappointed.

By the way - VAST MIDI improvements in Samplitude 9.x!!!

Have fun,
