1. Open Nuendo. Click on Device/VST Master Setup. Create 8 channels : you can modify the 7.1 default setting, changing their radius/azimuth values to 0 (zero). You can rename the channels as 1 - 2 - 3...
2. Click on Device/Ableton Live and active all the busses
3. Click on Devices/VST Outputs, active all Buses and assign the first 4 to the pair stereo outputs (Ex. 1+2, 3+4..)
4. Oper Live! If you view the Output selector (View/Bus) you can see that every channel is "Rewired". Now assign the single channels to different busses: CH1 -> Bus 1/2 .... CH8 -> Bus 15/16
5. Go to Nuendo and open the VST mixer (F3) and assign the Rewire channels to the mono outputs (Ex. Rewire 1 -> CH1...)
6. Have fun!
Et voila! With Nuendo we can send 8 stereo tracks to 8 analog mono outputs. Now, I don't know if this is or not is a problem for Ableton but I know that this is a great feature. The difference between a stereo file send in one mono channel and the "pan method" is enormous. Pls don't consider this post as a provocation, simply I reply to someone that asked me the name of this software...
Scìtv accèit..
