Universal Audio has announced the availability of a milestone software update that brings new features to LUNA Recording System with control surface support and sidechain integration.
Control surface support allows users to perform fader movements and adjust mixer parameters in LUNA using any compatible desktop MCU control surface or DAW controller app on their phone or tablet.
Additional features include Bus Spill, which quickly lays out the individual tracks feeding a bus, and Focus Module mode, which allows users to integrate single fader surfaces into larger surface configurations. This update brings additional analog style workflows to LUNA and delivers on a highly requested feature from users.
With a new dedicated Sidechain Input in LUNA’s utility row, users can apply compatible plugins and extensions (including 3rd party Audio Units and API LUNA extensions) to tracks for creative mix effects.
