Introduction

A Message from the

Development Team

Thank you for choosing a Nuage series Nuage Fader unit.

The Nuage series is a professional music and sound

production system based around Steinberg Nuendo

digital audio workstation software.

Over the 20 years that have elapsed since Yamaha began

offering DM and O series digital consoles and other

equipment for post production and music production,

work schedules have become notably tighter with less

time available for individual projects. The Nuage series

was created to respond to the deadline crunch with an

optimized working environment that provides

unprecedented efficiency as well as final quality.

The core of the system is Steinberg Nuendo, a DAW that

is acclaimed for its outstanding workflow efficiency and

sonic quality. The Nuage Master (Ncs500-CT control

surface) and Nuage Fader (Ncs500-FD control surface)

units were specifically developed to support and enhance

Nuendo operability. Nuage Master provides a

comprehensive concentration of post production controls

in an efficient, easy-access layout. Nuage Fader

integrates seamlessly with the Nuendo mixer window,

providing an intuitive hands-on extension to the software.

And then there’s the sound. Nuage I/O audio interface

units have been designed to deliver the superior Nuendo

sound without compromise. Three models are currently

available: the Nio500-D16 with 16 channels of AES/EBU

input and output, the Nio500-A16 with 16 channels of

analog input and output, and the Nio500-A8D8 with a

combination of 8 channels of analog and 8 channels of

AES/EBU input and output. The Nuage I/O units connect

to computers running Nuendo via the highly expandable

Dante digital audio protocol, allowing multiple Nuage I/O

units to be flexibly incorporated in a wide variety of system

configurations. Monitoring latency is near zero for

comfortable, stress-free monitoring while recording, even

when multiple I/O units are used with cascaded monitor

buses. The development team was adamant that near-

zero latency would be essential to allow musicians and

artists to deliver their full creative and performance

potential.

Stability and dependability are essential in any

professional working environment. In addition to

minimizing latency, the Dante Accelerator (AIC128-D

audio interface card) used in conjunction with the Nuage

I/O units offers stable, reliable communication between I/

O units and computer while allowing fast recovery from

any problems that do arise. You can concentrate on the

job at hand, secure in the knowledge that you’ll be able to

deliver great results on time.

Thanks to experience with the DM and O series, intensive

research, and invaluable feedback from our users, it is our

great pleasure to be able to deliver a new level of

production support in the Nuage series. Our technology is

there to give you unrestricted creative freedom, and we

sincerely hope that the Nuage series plays a role in your

growth and continued success.

The Yamaha Nuage series development team.
