Can you use the Pultec on acoustics and pianos

It is fre shit no support stupid mashine,thanck you i stay in Cubase . It is realy stupid.Cant found luna software only ua conect than menu : uad plug inst. And apolo… than registration hardware and where is luna? No exist! It is shit of the shit disapointing ! Ilist until now with this fake more 20 hour.!

I was whipping in LUNA today for the first time like nobody's business, lol. different, but very much similar to Pro Tools!

Thank you for the video! Been working with Pro tools for almost 2 years now and im still making little mistakes lol. This definitely helped.

this is so good, high level

2:48 i’m a blind user and would love to know what is the keyboard shortcut to bring up the pre-roll function, thanks in advance, Mac

Well done! For vocal recordings in Pro Tools. Should I record in pre fader metering to see the level at which I'm recording with all faders at unity gain, that way my inputs are equal to my outputs, my faders are not adding volume or taking away volume its just passing along the level its given? Thank you!

This was wonderful, thanks! I've been wanting to dive into Luna for some time but wasn't quite ready to jump into yet another DAW to learn. But I think you've made it clear that Luna is really quite intuitive, especially for those of us who cut our teeth on analogue hardware. And also that its emulations are of high quality. As you've explained it, the workflow provided by Luna does seem quite intuitive, etc., so I'm definitely going to dive in. Cheers!

thx!

A fantastic intro to Luna. Cheers

Does drums from logic still a slave to the latency of the mac processor if running on Luna?

Compare them doing the exact same thing hard to tell any diff with your comparison

Great explanation.

Awesome! Short and to the point. Now finally I get it.

Need a template like this for my slate plugins😢

When someone listen to your -14db lufs song without volume equalization it's going to be a lot quieter than pro records. The loudness is in the mix. When you get better at balancing your mix you notice that it's easy to get etc -7db lufa loudness. This has been the biggest struggle for me personally for so long.

I'm wondering what the Tape and Console slots do different than just using the insert slot?? Is there a benefit to using the Tape and Console slots over the insert??

I see almost nothing about Luna that would appeal to me. I started my career in the mid 70s using the best analog gear available, and yet have zero desire to go back there. I don’t know a single professional mixer who is nostalgic for the hulking inefficiency of those days. The direction of the marketplace is (finally!) dictated by production needs. I can’t imagine what makes UA think the opposite. Maybe 20 years ago this would be a viable product. Today, it gives off strong boondoggle vibes. The great, big image-perfect EQs and compressors and VU meters are an absolutely nuts approach to mixing on a display. I can’t imagine how much screen real estate most of my work would require with LUNA. Vast arrays of knobs and switches I am not using is an odd concept to say the least.

sorry maybe i didn't hear it but why you don't mentioning the summing feature?

Hello... Good explanation but I noticed something on your video and your studio setup . You own a pair of Alesis active monitors (I have the same ones), but the manufacturer recommends to install them with the tweeters towards the center (vertical or horizontal) !

How come i can't save this video in my youtube where i save videos i want to come back to?

can the pro version be used in native mode. Meaning the summing options?

Record companies wanted loud (less dynamic) records because they needed to sit above traffic noise floor in the car where most people listened to music on the radio.

whats the difference between saving new version and bookmark? are they both saving a different mix

It works like reason worked 15 years ago in Reson you were basically playing with cables inputs and outputs it was very analogue like

Hello, I noticed some errors in your video about how loudness works and wanted to send you corrections so that you can put out better information going forward. - LUFS is not a measurement of peak to average level. LUFS is a weighted measurement of mean square average over a period of time. You can find this in ITU-R BS.1770, which defines loudness measurement. - Limiting does not make music louder. A limiter works by turning down peak values over a threshold. This limits the dynamic range of program material and is only louder compared to the original when peak-normalized. - Loudness measurements came about because engineers felt that RMS and peak values were not an accurate enough representation of the subjective perception of level. LUFS is an approximation of subjective loudness. - Streaming platforms have a target loudness level due to recommendations from organizations that shape standards for audio distribution collectively agreeing that a peak-normalized loudness war is not good for anyone. - Loudness normalization has not ended the loudness war, but hopefully it will someday. Not every streaming platform offers loudness normalization and the ones that do don't treat loudness across songs the same. - I can't confirm or deny whether most streaming platforms offer album loudness matching for albums, but this is likely not true since not every streaming platform offers loudness normalization and not all the ones that do offer album loudness matching. If you have documentation or demonstrations that show that this is actually true, I'd be interested in seeing it. Hope this helps.

Subbed because you talk like someone who knows his shit. I disagree about the LUFS thing just because for most artists nowadays they need to be close to what Spotify et al want them to be. I mix and master for loads of artists, and some of them prefer not to be close to -14LUFS because they want to be less loud. This, however, means they tend not to get many streams because if your song sounds TOTALLY different from the previous song in a playlist, you get skipped mate. edit: those dynamics you talk about early on, are the same as the dynamics in every song produced in the 80s and early 90s. all of those songs - or at least, almost all of them - have been remastered since then for streaming.

now that it´s out for windows I can finally use it exclusively. little macbook for songwriting and then put it on the big machine for mixing. I used to work in reaper for many years and luna feels very close to my tweaked reaper version. I just wish they would redo the comping, it´s way too much hassle.

last time i released a song through distrokid, i tried their normalization function, which completely ruined the track, so i didn't choose their normalization service and load up the original masterfile with -7 lufs and peak at -0,2db ...no problem on all the major platforms ....OK sorry, i wrote this comment while listening to the video and the video content and my comment don't really match

i think -14 LUFS is too loud for certain types of music Apple Music standard is -16 LUFS, which i like even more. personally, i never go above -13.5 LUFS. don't forget that you have a .5 LU of leeway, so it's actually between -13.5 and -14.5 LUFS. anyway, i'd rather have people turn up the volume a little than turning it down because it's too loud to start with. that was a good primer, thanks for sharing.

Luffs wtf oh you mean total headroom without distorting . Basically simple dont hit the max and keep it yellow band. Trick use graphic equaliserr and pull under 0 evenly across board. Best way i think is play improvise quetly and then boost when happy with final sample. Luffs wtf lol thats a good one to confuse the geek in the crowd. Wow great riffs No great luffs Why is the music of today saturated to the max ? Dont mixers realise sometimes less is more ?

You know I always have this doubt about Luna and Unison. I have a bunch of UAD plugins including all LUNA extensions, I am used to just drop API Vision channel strips for all my channels. At the same time, if I want to record something externally, I can use the API 212L unison preamp, but after it, the signal faces the API Vision channel strip, and that plugin has integrated the 212L as well, it doesn't have a label in the extension, but I assume that because the extension is supposed to be the exact API Vision channel strip VST, and it has it there. I guess my question is, what's the point on recording an instrument through unison for the signal to apparently go in to the 212L once more because of the strip? Does this makes sense at all?

While pop music is still dominated by sample and loop based rap and hip-hop it really doesn't matter if it's squashed to death or not. If however we ever get back to producing organic HAI (Human Artistic Intelligence) style music dynamics will again become important to the art. 😎

If you want your song loud as phuck set your bass freq and then limit only the freq above around 500hz to 800hz youll get a lot of loudness without that pumping effect

As loud as you can without compromizing sound quality

This whole thing over LUFS and streaming is becoming maddening. Do it. Don’t do it. Do it. Dont. I don’t know. Aren’t most professional albums at -9 LUFS on average? And they sound perfectly fine on streaming services. And then there is ambient music by some of the forefathers like Brian Eno who can be as low as -23 LUFS. And then there is classical which needs lots of headroom and quiet space.

Don’t know if thats a good advice… In my mind you are more safe that platforms do not ruin/destroy your «art» if it is within the specs. If the music meets the specs, they wont change anything, and it will sound the way you intended. (hopefully…😬😬) Any kind of «normalization» on weak signals migth increase noise… I prefer adjusting gain, if necesseary, rather than using normalisation.

What interfaces can work with it

Good video

With Luna I feel more like creating music, with other DAWs I always end up feeling like I am editing rather than recording

Awesome video help me a lot , I just have a question so I have the free version and I want to purchase the full version download can I leave the free version on my PC or do I have to delete it I've had to do a lot of mapping so hoping I don't have to delete free version thanks

It seems you are showing the Vision API console and it's not in Luna pro Bundle? I had to buy the console separate in order to get the view you are showing.Please clear up for me. Thanks

Great Video, Thank you

Very helpful thank you!

Excellent review - really enjoyed your perspective. I've been a Luna user for almost a year now and you nailed it. Big change coming from years of Logic but a greatly appreciated change. Luna is great and can only get better! Cheers!

My drums won't trigger anything? It could be that I have a different drum module but I don't know... Lemme know if you have any ideas
