I try to use Full ARA mode (1.11) with Nuendo 13 but each time, it’s Bridge mode that opens and asks me to use the VSTi plugin!
I use Synthesizer V ARA on my track (where I would also use melodyne, spectralayers,…) but no Synthesizer V window opens. Just the Bridge info in the lower part (Editor) of Cubase/Nuendo.
Hi… Create an audio track, add some audio to it, select SyntheseizerV Studio Ara Plugin from the ‘extensions’ dropdown in the inspector, now add an actual SynthV VSTI instance. You’re ready to go
When I do this method, the audio file is not visible as a block in Synthesizer V to do Audio to Midi…
I just have ARA Bridge Link enabled at the top right of the window.
The ARA Bridge is lit green.
But no block representing audio is present and therefore the audio to Midi option does not work. As I saw on the ARA presentation videos with Cubase.
In the demo video, the Synthesizer ARA 2 extension opens like Melodyne in the bottom editor. When I add the extension, it tells me instead of the editor that I am in ARA Bridge mode as before ARA 2. Why does ARA 2 not work on my Nuendo 13?
Each DAW has slightly different nuances for full ARA2 compatibility, so Dreamtonics does not support the full ARA integration in every ARA-compatible DAW (yet).
From the official documentation:
DAWs that Support Full ARA Mode
Studio One 5 or later (Artist/Professional)
Cubase 12 or later (Artist/Pro)
REAPER 6 or later
Cakewalk
ABILITY5 Pro
