The new VU meters are a major improvement. Luna just keeps getting better and better.

Is that on the tapes: ampex/ studer or the summing neve/ API or all?

If you are interested in straight forward, short, Luna user tutorials on set up and tweaking, this guy is doing them on YT videos: youtube.com/c/owlwoodsouth |

I don’t know all the dbu=db=vu blah blah…but these now make sense to me. The simple way I understand it is they are now aligned ? I imported a 2 bus mastered logic mix, played around with adding oxide, neve summing etc., It honestly sounded improved. But, as I said in my m1 mini thread, the m1 mini seems to sound a little better to me too. |

It would be better to have one thread for Luna and concentrate all this weekly news there.

Version 1.1.5 working great here.
I have now started to use LUNA on my own upcoming album (mostly audio recorded in Logic and a few VI’s) and this week started using it on a second client (pop project with all VI’s so far)
If one is careful around updates (backing up projects and keeping an older version of LUNA running, I don’t see and reason to not dive in :-)
The sonics, to me, are just great. The tracking/editing workflow is also great with the omission of audio-quantize. Hoping that comes in to a version real soon.
Workaround with manually moving Warps is decent enough unless you are gridding the whole thing, which I just don’t want to do anyway.
Tempo adjustments to audio are scary good with the different algorythms.
I have the Neve Summing and the Ampex Master tape and they just sound great to me.
One pet peeve with the tape though ... and this goes for Studer too .. I get frustrated by the adding of hiss on certain presets. I will NEVER want this .. so I would love a master, account level setting that would 100% disable this and never have to start searching my project for the culprit again.

I think you can pop the hood on ampex and studer, to turn off hiss and save in your template by using the save as command and renaming ?

I could alright ... but I would have to go through every preset and see if it had hiss on it and save/rename ... Then I would have to scroll to my personal presets, I think ... sounds like a lot of trouble but I may just have to bite the bullet and invest the time.
My suggestion/gripe was to ask for some sort of click-once solution to never have to hear that sound again... I just feel its a little gimmicky

Oh I understood:) maybe Drew will chime in an correct me but I don’t believe there is a mast off like you describe.
Or build a little template with it set the way you want, sound silly but like HW you likely use a particular setting on each group or input( guitar, vox, drums, etc., you could just build that template once: inputs and busses and save as your default. So the heavy lifting would be done, and then just tweak to taste as you track/mix ?

So the heavy lifting would be done, and then just tweak to taste as you track/mix ? Its not a big deal really .. I work with 8 Stereo buses in LUNA (replicating my previous hybrid mixing template) and I add Master Tape to them all. Default setting sounds great and seems to add an octave below. Very cool. Then I start messing around with the vocals bus or the guitars bus and all good .. then when I stop .. if I am on headphones I can hear the hiss that is set on the non-default preset I just picked. No problem, I can go turn it off .. cos I know what I just changed. But of I am on speakers, its not as evident and I could be hours down the road when I realize.
It particularly bothers me when I can hear it at the start or end of a track ...
Anyway .. enough de-railing of the LUNA tread! I'll shut up now :-)

Studer defaults to noise off and has for a while in LUNA. I hear you on the presets, but since they're interchangeable with UAD, it's a big change.
We're close to getting session templates so this will be something you can deal with in your template soon. Glad to hear you're enjoying LUNA.

Hi all, We previewed the new features coming to LUNA 1.1.6. A nice few features .. keep 'em coming. On the Opt-K to put into Input monitoring mode ... I don't understand the difference with Shift T which is already there?? |

I don't understand the difference with Shift T which is already there?? Option K does all rec enabled tracks. VERY useful if you're tracking a full band and need to get them all into Input mode at once. |
