Huge FREE LUNA Update: Bounce in Place, Track Presets, & Browser Enhancements!

[@Russplight]

UA, you guys killed it with these last two updates. All of the new features were implemented perfectly, with a curated style of forward thinking applied. Can't wait for ARA2 support which is so essential in any modern DAW today. EXCELLENT.

[@bparkpark1764]

Bring on ARA2

[@soulfred]

We all want MIDI editing updates but man...I think the LUNA V2 it's gonna be huge.

[@justjerome]

Bounce features means I could finally make Luna my true DAW for mixing… Great updates!

[@TheSteveKinney]

Let's go! Cheers Jerome!

[@dek10157]

now we are cooking! thank you Universal Audio for listening to us. The only thing that we are really missing is ARA support but i know thats down the line. If we can just get a cpu meter that tells us the processing of each plug in we should be straight

[@Russplight]

Yes, ARA2 support for Sound Radix, Synchro Arts and Melodyne. Then after hardware support.

[@JonManness]

The bounce feature is a game-changer for my hungry VSTs. Thanks for making music easier, UA!

[@rickwaters7193]

Steve, once again you present features and all things audio in a clear and concise manner. Many thanks.

[@TheSteveKinney]

Thanks for the kind words, Cheers mate! I do what I can!

[@southpau]

I’m FINALLY able to put Luna to some serious work. I can’t live without the bounce in place feature. Now i could really use a built in “vari-fi” feature for editing the ends of wave files!

[@TheSteveKinney]

Yooo! Stoked to hear it. Cheers mate!

[@TheTonecii]

Thank you Universal Audio! Keep improving the most exciting new DAW! Great update!

[@CaldoHits]

A future update that enables you to add more than 8 plugins in your chain. At most 10 would be great.

[@Mheyos]

If you need 10 plugins in a track, you should consider to revisit the basics of recording 😅

[@oVeRuSoLo]

Nice! Only multi side chain, and I’m back to luna ❤

[@JerMarMusicGroup]

They were not joking about the feedback menu in Luna! THEY ARE LISTENING! Let’s go!!! Now if we can get built in pitch correction or buy it as an extension. I will definitely use this DAW full time.

[@LodvarDude]

Great update! Track Presets is a welcome addition! Now, decent comping and versions is hopefully next!

[@forestwilson2119]

LUNA is amazing! Thanks for the video.

[@TheSteveKinney]

It's legit, Forest! Just today - I had a 5 hour fiddle tracking session at my home studio with a session player, individual cues, realtime - literally couldn't have done a session like this without Apollo & LUNA. It just was hyper efficient.

[@kelvinswaby3163]

Amazing update!!!

[@CloudburstStudio]

Thanks for the update! Would love to see you guys add mono to stereo plugins like in protools! I find it tedious having to create a stereo track and dragging my mono track onto it if I want to add stereo plugins on to it

[@Russplight]

I agree. Very frustrating at times that you can't add a mono to stereo plugin. LUNA still rules.

[@roberteismann1929]

Thanks for the info, I really do hope that ARA for melodyne comes soon. Oh yes and VST 3 please.

[@moskva-kassiopeya]

Cool update! Keep ‘em coming 🙏

[@THE_YVRISTIS]

Very handy features, now I start to use more LUNA,,Thanks for the great work.

[@polymathism7598]

Yay, Its Steve Kinney! :)

[@TheSteveKinney]

aaayyyye haha Cheers bro!

[@MrMatheus933]

Great update!! Next we need to be able to change keyboard shortcuts, it would make my migration from other daw easier...

[@bparkpark1764]

Luna is getting closer and closer.

[@amunahm3324]

Thank you. I appreciate your work! ❤

[@Fredcaramia]

One of the most beautiful update!!

[@TheSteveKinney]

I'm stoked about this update, glad to see others excited about it too. Cheers!

[@tilllanglo5316]

Awesome. Now only Ara support and an io plugin of some sort and it’s pretty much perfect.

[@lxm2600]

Very nice! Wonderful DAW, but I'm still on hold, waiting on hardware inserts - those would enable a true hybrid workflow

[@TheSteveKinney]

Feedback menu button in LUNA. Can't overstate it enough. Appreciate this perspective! Cheers!

[@Artek604]

Great stuff! I'm tempted to get Luna Pro since it's on sale now!

[@davidgardell]

This update is 🔥🔥🔥 And great video, Steve! Keep up the good work! 👊

[@DadRockAndGuitars]

This is a fantastic update! Major workflow improvements 👍

[@ettiennelane9173]

This is great. Custom shortcuts, clip fx and ARA2 support please. Thank you.

[@kekeboj8476]

Great new features. Great video 👍

[@Crencabeats]

A great update. I hope Luna's development will be towards features for beat makers, and producers, like chord track, a great sampler, creating macros among many others.

[@trackzillas84]

32 Bit Floating point recording is the only reason why I'm not fully using LUNA yet. Let's make 32 Bit Recording happen ASAP team UA.

[@Tung68karaoke]

melodyne i installed on windows there is no place to zoom in can you help me

[@TheBassplayr64]

Great improvements with the latest update, particularly the added bounce feature! I also like the comprehensive preset management. My biggest personal request after all of this greatness would be to have the ability to rename or create additional plugin categories. I have no need for a dedicated category for pitch correction, and special processing is a bit ambiguous. I'd like to be able to create some task specific category names like "for drums", "for vocals", "monitor utilities", "parallel processing", etc.

[@jenslempke7883]

The only DAW that really works like a real hardware recording process. A bit unstable in PC enviroment yet though, but It's getting better all the time. Finally, and most important - I really enjoy it and get more creative while using it. Thanks UAD!

[@therearenoruleshere]

Been waiting for this, just in time! 2 days before my Pro Tools renewal I decided to not renew. See ya later Avid, hello LUNA!!!

[@iosuagalev]

Finally, bounce in place and track presets!

[@iameags]

Still no External I/O plugin for better external hardware in and out.. still a pain to used external hardware in LUNA.

[@TheSteveKinney]

Smash the feedback button in LUNA, can't overstate how important that is.

[@IñigoLlames-x5d]

We need stereo plugins option in mono tracks. For example with Doubler plugin

[@lawrenceprivacyduediligenc1408]

Great updates!!

[@NorrieChristie]

🔥

[@RecordingStudio9]

Great welcoming updates. ARA support should be next in line. Please.

[@Freedom4Ever420]

Luna lacked these basic features before, it was not worth the Free price. Maybe now I’ll try it.

[@TheSteveKinney]

Lets go! .. whenever you do give it a try, I genuinely think you will enjoy working in it. That said, be sure to share some feedback. It's highly valued, appreciate ya!

[@ufvgroup]

Ok what about Id tags can we tag our music to track

[@kristofdevlamynck4786]

Do we get VCA's with this Update?

[@SunnyLicious]

Are you guys producing in Luna?

[@TheSteveKinney]

I have & do produce in luna. I work with a lot of session studios in town here in Nashville, which - by nature - run pro-tools systems. I end up migrating the sessions out of PT once everything is done and import and work in luna from there. Typically - I have to do a lot of vocal overdubs and individual track overdubs, like fiddle, steel, acoustic guitar, electric etc.. LUNA & apollo makes it super efficient for me to work on and finish my projects.

[@SunnyLicious]

@@TheSteveKinney Thanks. I gotta give Luna another shot for production stage. Live just works great for me.

[@todddammit4628]

I straight up forgot Luna existed. Didn't realize you were still developing it.

[@KingYahuchanon]

It’s actually a dope DAW.

[@todddammit4628]

@@KingYahuchanon It's a beta product.

[@LodvarDude]

@@todddammit4628 On PC? Yes. True.

[@duimusic100]

No it's not, it's OK" it's really a daw for bands and live instruments. Basic as it gets.. 👌

[@TheSteveKinney]

There has been some really cool updates. Multi-out is in it now too.. you should give it a go & share some feedback in the feedback menu. Appreciate ya! cheers!

[@ufvgroup]

What about the plugin some send me in the red I’m maxed out on buffer

[@TDenander]

@TheSteveKinney this takes Luna from fantastic to outstanding 🥰 I work with a lot of legends and do A LOT of work every year so being able to work fast is crucial...after decades of writing and programming in Logic it has remained my work DAW and then I move it over to Luna for mixing. But my goal has always been to only stay in Luna...2025 seems like that year...but I have one small thing that has stopped me so far and it is when I program all plugin instruments and build the track...in Logic I just drag and mark the bars I want to work on and set the quantize to the best resolution and it stays....in Luna the marker for bars won't stay if I click outside plus I have trouble setting one quantize setting for all....is there a simple solution I just haven't found?

[@MaleInMarchMusic]

i love luna its a very good DAW now for me BUT with new M4PRO always a repair plugin error and when switching sample rate!! hope UA will fix it in a future

[@Bookah_wpmg]

I have been waiting for these features for years.... Stacked in Luna for sure. Why would I subscribe to Pro Tools for limited tracks?

[@CRayBeats]

Still needs a sample preview in the browser.

[@konafama]

Fav daw just got favoriter. 😂

[@TheSteveKinney]

Let's go!

[@djdledge]

No loop preview on luna?

[@felixburton3541]

HARDWARE INSERTS!!!

[@hokkym.6348]

PLEASE LET US MAKE FEEDBACK LOOPS BY SENDING THE AUX BACK INTO ITSELF!!! This is a creative barrier that should not exist!!!!

[@robertocedenno]

please disable the f* auto save function and warp clips function by default !!!!

[@804EBEATS]

Please fix the 11.5.2 update so some of us can actually install the dang update

[@yevheniimelnyk8911]

Seems like only Luna among those rest DAW keep it “analog”, rest are all AI😢

[@Moonraker-xyz]

AAF export

[@duimusic100]

You people will say thank u to anything. This is the weakest update ever in any daw. You mean to tell me it took 3 to 4 years to get these 2 little updates.. you'll really dont care about what your customers wants are needs. Work on the Piano Roll PLEASE its pretty bad we cant do the basics things everyone needs..

[@nszumowski]

I would love it if Luna didn’t crash just because it doesn’t like a plug-in that works fine in another daw

[@ny7musictv344]

I have never experienced that!

[@tilllanglo5316]

Never experienced that either

[@KingYahuchanon]

His plugins must be cracked.

[@nszumowski]

I'm sure there are plenty of people who have not experienced this. I use Luna on a mac mini m2 pro with plugins from Arturia, UA, Plugin Alliance, Waves, IK, Klevgrand, PSP, Softube, SSL, and Toontrack. I feel those are pretty compliant plugins devs? I use Pro Tools, Logic, Ableton and can only get Luna to run if I empty the component directory. Any insight appreciated

[@nszumowski]

@@KingYahuchanon If this were pre-2006 then that would be a string possibility 😬
