    Very interesting video Michael :) How do you get the external render to make the ADM file from the sound coming in from cubase?

    • @michaelgwagner
      @michaelgwagner  Před rokem

      You need to export it through the renderer. Set in and outpoints and the play the audio while the renderer records it.

    Hi , love your videos, can you do a video on how to downmix a dolby wav export it to mp4 o mp3 from cubase

    • @michaelgwagner
      @michaelgwagner  Před rokem

      Thanks! If you mean an mp4 in DD+JOC encoding, Cubase can’t do that. For regular downmixing just set the renderer output to whatever format you want and bounce the result.

    Hey Michael, I was wondering if you have any experience with Cubase Pro 13 yet, and if any plugin compatibility (I have Dear VR stuff) issues have been encountered.

    • @michaelgwagner
      @michaelgwagner  Před 6 měsíci +1

      No issues from what I can see. There wasn’t much change from 12 to 13 when it comes to spatial audio.

    I know it has been a while, but I have to ask again just in case I missed something. My Windows PC Cubase setup does great ATMOS thanks to your help. But, I still have to run the big ADM file through the AWS Media convert to share it out for audition. Is there any new way of auditioning the ATMOS file on PC these days?

    • @michaelgwagner
      @michaelgwagner  Před 5 měsíci

      The Dolby Renderer now works on Windows (with limitations). You could purchase a license for the Renderer and use that for converting to mp4.

      @@michaelgwagner yes, thank you. I'd agree with you as that is the only way I've found as well. When I convert to mp4, the mix does not shift the objects. They all seem to be equal volume in all channels. Maybe a video on using the Renderer ?..

    • @michaelgwagner

      I might throw that in in a q&a video.

      That is on my list, but I need a bit prep time for that because this one is tricky.

    There is the External Dolby Atmos Renderer now, right? Which for some reason Dolby sells via Avid's website

    • @michaelgwagner
      @michaelgwagner  Před měsícem +1

      That has been around for a long time and it used to be something that only Pro Tools users would use. Be aware that the WIndows version is limited in what it can do.

    Another word sir, do I need to purchased Dolby Atmos render separately

    • @michaelgwagner
      @michaelgwagner  Před 2 měsíci

      Yes, if you use the external renderer. Cubase also has a built in renderer.

    Hi Michael, I need your help! I'm trying to do the same in Nuendo 12, I have everything carefully set up, but, in the Renderer a "External sync error" warning appears. I really appreciate your help!

    • @michaelgwagner

      Are you running Nuendo in native mode or with Rosetta. I have not tried that myself but people tell me that there are issues with the native app.

      Yes, I got that. :) Not sure what the solution is in your case. I’m assuming you out in the correct IP? If you connected to localhost, try the actual IP address.

      Not quite sure what you are talking about, the meters are doing what they are supposed to do. If you talk about the metering in the Atmos renderer, that depends on the renderer settings. I had it set up to render stereo (not binaural), so there is only a stereo meter.

      Ah, ok, I know what you mean. You need to watch the video to the end. Those measurements show up once the LTC plugin is connected.
