Another question:
Has anyone ever tried to replace the hard disk in Tango 1 with a SSD for faster
run up?

Hi Jan,
I’m also a Nuendo user and very much do what Chris wrote, I also use the Avid
App in conjunction with the Tango to control the channel strip and inserts.
An other work around is using Quick controls in Nuendo which still works as
designed on the Tango. Quick control will let you assign any control knob
within Nuendo to 8 user programable controls which then can be accessed on
the Tango.

I'm very happy running Tango-1 with Nuendo. They are very well integrated.
The Tango can mirror exactly which channels are visible in Nuendo and most
other things work well.
The only issue is that a couple of years ago Steinberg decided to increase
the number of available Insert slots available from 8 to 16 in Nuendo v.8.
Unfortunately they elected to use the exact same memory area for all 16
inserts that had previously been used for just the original 8 inserts.
Consequently the Tangos could no longer access the original 8 inserts
correctly - only the first insert on each track would function on the Tango.
I tried hard to get them to correct this, without success. However, my
simple solution to this is to use the latest version of Nuendo (currently
v.11) for most work, and if I want to do a lot of editing using the Tango's
physical controllers I switch back to Nuendo v.7 temporarily, which was the
last full version before the change was made. It works for me and I never
need more that 8 inserts anyway.
You are right - The Tangos are great and I can't imagine not using them.

Depends if I work on classics or pop. For pop music I appreciate Logic's
comp feature which allows you to record several takes onto one track and cut
(edit) them in seconds. I know no faster editing.
For classical recording where I don't record with a click (to a beat) I
want to edit maybe in a passage of 16th notes. Both Pyramix and Sequoia have
a wonderful crossfade editor for this task. Both are better for such things
than Protools. Pyramix is much harder to get used to in the beginning than
Seqouia, but it works fine with the Tango (1) and there are some quite good
tutorials. Another advantage (and disadvantage, because you have get hold of
it first) is the possibility to configure everything to your needs, for
example the mixer.

Thanks guys for the answers!
I am gonna try it out, need to get into Pyramix first and see if i can get
a demo or something..
To Ludger: do you prefer working on Pyramix with the Tango or is Logic X ok
(with the small bugs)? Are you using Tango 1 or 2?

Hi Jan,
Pyramix ( I have Version 10) works fine, but it only runs on Windows.
Logic Pro x fine with the mentioned issues. But on High Sierra and Catalina
only till version 10.4.3!!! So make sure to keep that version!!
Nuendo I have not yet tried out.
Good luck,
Ludger

Hi everybody,
I am trying to figure out which DAW works the best with the SmartAV Tango
controller. Right now i am using my Tango 1 with Logic X on my Mac
(Sierra) and it works fine. There are some minor bugs:
-EQ visuals are not the same as in Logic
-SENDS encoders are not working, i have to touch them and then i can
adjust them with the active control knobs
But i believe that there must be a DAW out there that has full Tango
integration without any bugs and all the workflow intact. I read that
Nuendo or Pyramix are great, but it is hard to find any info on this
subject with SmartAV support gone.
I am mostly interested in the mixing features, editing not so much.
So is there a DAW that can run on a modern OS (Windows 10 or Mac Big Sur)
and that works with modern plugin suites (Kush/Voxengo/Waves/..) and that
has full Tango integration and NO bugs?
If anyone has some experience with this i would be most interested.
I simply cannot let go of this controller, it has everything i want and
mixing is so cool with it. But i want it to be perfect and future upgrade
proof in the longterm.
Thanks!
Jan
