MIDI Timecode

Productions that contain video usually also contain timecode information. Nuendo Live allows you to save MIDI timecode (MTC) in your recordings to make it easy to match up the timelines of video and audio during postproduction.

For using MIDI timecode information in Nuendo Live, the following applies:

  • Incoming MIDI timecode is automatically recognized and displayed on the toolbar.

  • The timecode information is written into the timestamp of Broadcast Wave Format (BWF) files.

  • The transport functions are not locked by incoming timecode information. This means that you can always freely navigate through the timeline and start recording at any position.

  • Wrong timecode settings or corrupt incoming timecode information do never prevent Nuendo Live from recording.

  • You can use Steinberg Nuendo SyncStation to generate MIDI timecode, for example, from longitudinal timecode (LTC).

  • MIDI Machine Control (MMC) via timecode or VST System Link is not supported.
