[@LCREEDTV]

Love how you did all this homework for us on a COMPLETELY new daw! Thx fam!

[@billbeats5135]

you live wavy, the perfect blend of hood, intelligence and technical knowledge! I love your vids fam.

[@Barimah21]

Solid information! Just downloaded LUNA and gonna use this as a guide. I'd definitely like to see more! Thanks bro!

[@LarryThomasMeantByGod]

I’m loving it bro! I just purchased the X4 and your videos have help a lot with transitioning.

[@Arterium]

Just moving to LUNA. Loving it. Dig your excited vibe, quality vid and quick info. More please for sure!!

[@Danksta02]

Killer video, Wavy! Maybe the best content on Luna I've seen so far. I just got the platform as well but coming from Ableton (never used PT or Logic) I feel a bit out of sorts. Cool to see you fly around the interface based on your familiarity with PT and even being able to leverage key commands that you already knew.

[@808boy]

I'm a master mixer now because of you thank you love your vids🥇🥇

[@waynewav]

DOPE!

[@patrickriviere4451]

Thx for this vid and ur energy bro. We be waitin on them Luna templates now 😊

[@revelashan]

Good job man! This looks like a game changer. Keep hitting us with tutorials the more you learn bro! It's def gonna help. Just subscribed too

[@KenLasaine]

Just started using Luna and would love to see some more tutorials from you. Thanks!

[@heatgot1]

DEFINITELY KEEP THOSE TUTORIALS ON LUNA COMING

[@JoneQuest]

Great content Wavy! keep bringing LUNA tutorials

[@JustinKuzco]

Damnnn, I love your review man !! I'm gonna get a UAD apollo twin x soon, cant wait to try out Luna Recording System ! keep up the hard work man, love your video !

[@freestylerecordsinc]

Hi Wavy, great review on Luna! I am a Apollo user 8 and 16. I down loaded Luna yesterday and I’m blown away by it. I want to track all my Maschine project through Luna so please make a tutorial on that. Awesome job👌👍👍🔥🔥🔥

[@mrjed2534]

Thank you so much I would like to see more of this because I’ll be using logic for so long some of this shortcut is very different but I would love to know more about Luna thank you very much stay blessed

[@wildbird78]

Are all users of this DAW hereby coined "LUNAtics"?

[@CoveringFish]

Jesus why the shade?

[@SantaAnaCreations]

Basicly... Lol

[@jesusislord1634]

What does the creator of the universe have to do with this?

[@DJSidhu24]

No they ar called " bunch of Lunatics"

[@parlarebeneperpensarebene2142]

Luna means moon in Italian, so I vote for Mooners...

[@luismuzik1]

Damn, I thought I was excited haha Excellent Video bro!!!

[@pianowithdarryl1732]

Love the energy, bro!

[@montraix]

Wavy Wayne, first time caller, lol!!! GREAT real world video!! I would LOVE to see more on LUNA, especially comping techniques! Hoping it's as good as Logic for comping, if so, I'm sold

[@SuperFaceless1]

As always Wayne you come with the exclusive.

[@waynewav]

Its my pleasure!

[@joenarbeats]

I think this is a cool new DAW. I am hoping to see the aspects of it that outmatch other standard DAWs like Studio 1, Reaper, and the industry standard Pro Tools. I feel this could be a game changer if many people start to switch to this Software.

[@billesposito2112]

Theeee best info about LUNA . Answered all my questions. Thanks Wavy !

[@tperry5839]

Luna is dope I’m rolling wit u awesome job bro need them templates wanna see many more videos on Luna !

[@Aguynamedkim]

Just ordered the TWIN X QUAD. Can’t wait to try this.

[@SatuyeRecords]

You're very good in explaining... thank you!

[@canhebe200]

I’m a logic user just for the simplicity, but I do use UAD hardware so LUNA was there waiting for me. I knew about it but I never really put an effort into trying it I must say this DAW has a super warm feeling I believe I may get to know this one better thanks for the video.

[@flipsergio2985]

keep tutorials coming thanks wavy

[@SoniqSounds]

I think they called it Recording System and that name does it more justice... I was having such a hard time doing simple things like combining midi, pre roll, stretch audio, right click to get common functions

[@GoodVibeTribe]

Thanks so much! I learned alot! Be safe stay strong!

[@antoniocunha1884]

Just got Lunar knew nothing about it. My confidence is building more and more each day. Like to know more and more as we go along. Was Sonar, Cubase, Reaper and Studio One user but this one is incredible got all my hardware working and that's a huge boost of confidence for me.

[@atljonboi23]

I’m downloading mine when I get home great tutorial, you HAVE to do some more! Definitely for templates!

[@hhectorlector]

Very fun video. Luna looks great

[@primalmetalband9547]

Thank you, it was all explained very clear!

[@DJGIOGUARDIAN]

Now we need some Wavy Wayne vocal templates for Luna.... damn this should be good.

[@hectorheckler6327]

I like the luna graphics. Makes the DAW look professional.

[@onedan9521]

Hey!!!! I learn how to record and autotune thanks to you Wayne: ).....im even good at it now!

[@type997]

Nice overview! Honestly though, I already own the Studer too. C'mon UA just show us some love.

[@abadnego3069]

Right on time brah!

[@BobbyWashingtonvlog]

Bro, I just recorded and entire RnB soul record and evening before do any kind of EQ or mixing it sounds warm just like analog Consoles and tape... I’ve never heard any other DAW sound so smooth with 0 digital artifacts. I’ll be posting some of the record on my page after I mix master it tomorrow on my channel...

[@rize8218]

Was waiting for this 😄

[@waynewav]

😁

[@rize8218]

Wayne.wav have you had issues with linking ilok?

[@Kwaician]

I could watch all of these videos before you even get into the content, nothing but smiles

[@SssnakePitTV63]

Yo, thanks for all your help and videos...I was checking it out wit yo video...I downloaded..However I just spent $500 dollars buying Pro Tools Perpetual License...So I'm eager to do more wit pro tools..But I'm always checking to see who has the best n simplest recording DAW....Much appreciation for sharing your knowledge..

[@3THEGOON]

This tutorial was fire, I like this one but...I like 'em all! lol Keep bangin'.

[@samarfeddoul7359]

love your energy

[@christophertodman8254]

i like your enthusiasm

[@V12_smoke]

I like the color scheme. Very easy on the eyes...

[@iwxo]

great tutorial! Just opened up Luna for the first time. I like how luna shows it's playlist options in the track window, but how would you go about comping? If I like half of what I recorded on take 1 and half of what I recorded in take 2 how would I go about combining those takes?

[@RogerMartinez95]

Nice review! Subscribed:)

[@micahe]

I definitely want more videos! BTW, is it possible to have a 4 beat count-in when you start recording?

[@melodyman9162]

Great vid brother. Looks like a combo of Logic Pro and Pro-Tools.

[@kingsupabeatz]

Wavy Gang!!

[@mccrayvideo2]

Thnks Wayne.wav I want to see more videos and more templates. So Be more dope!!!!!

[@susanrowe12]

Loved this - Just downloaded it this weekend. How do you setup effects sends with it?

[@pjlee4540]

I'm new two recording I got the basic I have a question when armed I have inserts like voxbox .,but when I unarmed it it goes two au units After vocal take I'm clearly trying two take out low end. Desser ,compress exc but seems two me it dosent work I get a box that's stated cannot basically control the plugin and copy two clip board a lil help two get me full going would be excellent thanks

[@thehouseofmuzic]

Question, Can the Edit/Timeline marker scroll to the end of the song ? It seem to just fall of the end of the page. Thanks.

[@blackwatch_TV]

Nice with the PT quick keys

[@oshaymusicgroup]

Your videos are so hype and engaging! Near the end you showed the versions option which is similar to playlisting in Pro Trools which i actually hate, but do you have anything showing how to comp? I see 1 guy's video and he was doing a whole lot of cut, copy, and paste which definitely didn't look right. Any thoughts?

[@NandoGriffiths]

Hey Wavy thanks for the info. Where's the count in option for tracking?

[@sofiauzumaki810]

I’m ready

[@joshrainbow-IceTenor]

Chillin this morning with wavy havin a coffe :-) my Apollo is still delayed because of corona but hope I have it before Monday. Question: I work with 2 tracks. When you bring the mp3 file into Luna does Luna recognize the tempo of the song? This would be handy when record the vocal and want to cut and paste parts in the grid.

[@skneeg]

how do you switch from grid to slip or shuffle mode??

[@LMarquee]

I downloaded it, but I haven't used it yet. I will though! Universal Audio for life!

[@ebonystylemusic8619]

I got the MPC-X working on the Luna but when i press record, it doesn't record what i played on the MPC. does anybody know how to fix this?

[@RhythmRepertoire]

Yeah some Luna templates would be great

[@albertopigeonetti7171]

Hi Wayne do you know how to connect a midi controller like the Qcon pro x for example? Is this possible?

[@RaniaDarif]

Can you please tell me , should I buy the apolo twin x or MKII since you can upload the luna recording system in any apolo twin machine ?

[@vernonwallace4679]

You are the bomb brotha!!!!!

[@alvinchristv]

Would you use this as a 1 stop shop or toggle between your previous DAW

[@chauncymorrison7524]

Question: Is there anything in LUNA simular to Pro Tools Audio Suites...You know like Var-Fi, Lo-Fi, etc

[@djorig]

You mentioned comping versions. I don’t see a way to view all versions to make a comp. it only lets me see one version at a time.

[@Yoskillamusic]

Hey Wayne I just bought the Apollo twin x with Luna software and when I plugged my studio monitors only one of the monitors where working correctly and the other monitor was having a bad signal coming in so can you please help me with this problem?

[@Emotionz223]

Man what camera are you using and the settings lens etc the quality is crispy as hell ....make a video on your youtube video setup one day i would love to see that

[@Dangetsuu]

Hey man, Random question but... What is your channel strip looking like for the SM7B with settings, noise gate etc? I have a twin mkii quad with an SM7B with a cloudlifter but I can't shift the hiss no matter what I try and your levels sound ideal! Would appreciate any info, peace!

[@eyeballjames6939]

Yer the best Wavy!

[@AlavonMajor]

How much Apollo DSP is used when running LUNA in virtual Neve mode with the summing extensions?..are 2 SHARC chips enough? or too smoothly use LUNA with extensions and plug ins, at a minimum you need a QUAD set up or greater?

[@MRSHABLEEK1]

Wassup bro..do they have a count in metronome before recording starts?

[@soulinspiration1]

You said that you don't have to use the Console with Luna. Does the processing of the UAD plugins still occur in the Apollo or does using Luna without the Console causes the processing of the plugins to occur in the computer's processor?

[@redjy04]

Hey man thanks for the review when you going to drop Luna template and make sure you use some of the 10 plugins comes free with the apollo lol

[@smackdammit4266]

Dope vid

[@miguelalexandresimoesneves8660]

Do I need and interface for LUNA? Or I can use it without an audio interface?

[@CourtneyPanton]

Can it work with Faderport 16 yet i see you have one there i have one too Bless.

[@CFWeb-ue7ov]

Can you sync midi time code to external devices. For instance, I want Luna to be the master tempo for an MPC.

[@DjTumbao]

Wayne how are you my brother ? nice video . looking around on all the comments on UAD I Think there is a lot of controversy right now with the topic to switch DAW'S Or not , I think you don't have to Switch , you can use it also just to record and then bouce your tracks to use them on you favorite DAW thats the way I'm using it , right now just to try it out, I actually like it a lot, and it will only get better with time I think, I think they should add the ability to make your own shortcut keys commands that will increase work flow a lot

[@falconator51]

How can I route my iPad or iPhone through my Apollo Twin using Luna?

[@SaniBanks]

Is it possible to record while monitoring through waves plugins? I dont want my AU plugins bypassed whenever I record.

[@waynewav]

yes it is!

[@SaniBanks]

Wayne.wav can you explain this concept in a video? Im a bit confused since theres no option to change buffer size.. not sure how turning off accelerated monitoring will effect the unison plugins or latency.

[@CarstenGoeke]

@@waynewav How? 3rd party plugins to hear while recording? I don´t get it...

[@bachelorgamer8001]

All these feature are available in studio one

[@luvjameyr]

To man your energy is off the chain.I wanted to know ,is it simple export and explode travls from an MPC Live into Luna and also loading songs and sessions from Logic Pro x ?This is going to be my new recording system(Daw)

[@pipebarat0]

Does Luna replace the uad console?? How can I choose if I want to record the process or just monitoring it, if it does

[@rapmusic]

Does it support auto tune pro ? I can load it but can’t monitor though it

[@QuaykuDsoul]

That's great... looks like Logic pro x.No desire to switch for the same thing

[@samarfeddoul7359]

with no latency ....

[@tomaszsajewicz2482]

Hey! can you show how you illuminate the room while recording this movie? :))

[@bloozerd]

Wavey...can you please do a tutorial on setting up cue mixes...?

[@jdigital1]

Pookie! lmao 😭😭😭I feel you I been waiting too

[@GoodVibeTribe]

How do we make templates and save them? Thanks!

[@joldschool64]

Dose it work with control surface?

[@Zonericch]

How do you check non in Luna and those presets I bought all 3 of them for Luna are dope

[@moneyluger4092]

How to find bpm in this " Recording System" Please help Thanks!

[@joldschool64]

Dose it work with a control surface?

[@drewemusic]

Where is the sound tool located? I’m having trouble listening to my tracks?

[@tymillz700block]

Can i run waves plug ins through Luna?
