Nuendo 1.6.x [k'd]
« on: October 05, 2025, 10:33:14 AM »

Nuendo 1.6.0 and 1.6.1 are now [k'd] and available on the Hotline-Server.
It can be found under Audio -> Recording & Sequencing -> Nuendo.

Thanks to @ssp3 we have a full iso / toast image of Nuendo 1.6.0.
Together with the 1.6.1 update you can get to the last OS9 version.

My [k] works for both 1.6.0 and 1.6.1 so if anyone needs the older version I covered that as well.
If you want 1.6.1 please apply the update before patching as I've seen the 1.6.1 updater skip modified files.

If anyone tests it beyond the absolute basics please let me know if everything works.
Also please don't upload it to other sites until we are sure it works properly.

As always, excellent, if I remember 1.6 is much better than the v1.2K version that was very buggy; I think v1.6 was quite usable and scrolling down to sample level on waveforms worked much better.

I am curious if anyone here has used v1.6 on a midsize Project (20 to 30 tracks); and it's performance and stability review.

the main difference you will notice between 1.5 and 1.6 is that in 1.5 the audio setup site was really buggy. i had it that sometimes the programm just chrashed when you tried to create a 5.1 setup or similar.

not sure what you guys are talking about "ilok", that stuff probably belongs into another thread.

The later versions switched to synchrosoft but 1.x on mac is definitely PACE / iLok.

At a time I was pulling my hair with 1.5 version that was floating around, but, after switching to dongle/legal 1.6.1 it was pretty stable. My projects were not larger than 24 tracks, though. Mostly live stuff off of MX-2424 or MMR-8.

P.S. IIRC, instability with 1.5 was audio setup related, just like IIO said.

Tested it yesterday and it's waaaaaaaaaay more stable than 1.5. Haven't had it crash once. Too bad the Digidesign ASIO driver is crap, so it's of not much use to someone on TDM hardware.

Again, great work Windoze! :D

RME multiface and Digiface had an Nuendo Face too. In fact they are cheaper, because most People dont know it is RME inside

I was a part owner of North Shore Computer in NY and we were the only official Steinberg partner to sell a "Nuendo PC"; we received all the Nuendo hardware and software just before it was officially released for testing on our Dual 386 CPU tower.  We then custom built systems and they were sold thru Sam Ash Music.  I will look for some pictures, the tower casing matched the translucent dongle color and it was a real screamer at the time.  There was so much "buzz" around the Manhattan music scene about Nuendo and what it could do on a native system.

Steinberg was pushing the PC version pretty hard and was focused on Windows at the time; they released an extremely stable PC version BEFORE the mac version.  This was the first time that a Windows product was released before the Mac version.  When I finally got my hands on the mac version, it was obvious the coding NOT at the same level as far as stability and performance of the PC version.  It was apparent that Steinberg was banking on a Windows future and left a skeleton crew to port over the code for the mac version.
