Note that LUNA takes over much of the functionality of Console. Before LUNA, UAD Console was the only way to control your UAD Apollo devices. In most situations you will no longer need to use Console if you are using LUNA. However there are some instances where you might want to. This video goes over the features available when you use LUNA and Console together simultaneously such as Console Isolation mode, Console Tracking Mode and importing Console channel strip presets into LUNA.
Explore the Luna control bar from timeline and mixer views to focus browser and track input, and master resource monitoring, global controls, and workflow features for recording and editing.
Master track versions, takes, and comping in Luna to build a final performance, then configure track controls, routing, inputs and outputs, and warp-based tempo via clip and warped views.
In this lecture we explore using buses in LUNA, best practices when mixing and the bus Spill feature!
In this lecture Christian shows you how to use Track Groups in LUNA to enable group mixing, editing and adding/editing effect capabilities across multiple tracks!
