What They Say

I grew up using tape and analog consoles, and LUNA is as close as I can get to the sound and workflow of my old Studer and Neve setups.

LUNA lets me forget that I'm using a computer to make music. And the crazy-low latency workflow with my Apollo has further blurred the line between production and mixing for me — I can just make records.

    LUNA recording software

    I really like what UAudio made for the musicians. Let's forget that I was a part of a team that time UAudio was developing the LUNA app and think the way of "user-being".

    The easiest way to navigate "on-the-go" through the list of plugins - is groundbreaking solution!

    The best interface ever (I was using many other DAWs for years, and I found LUNA's canvas as good as I would like to have)

    The sound.

    The SOUND!

    This is just amazing and I have too few words to say THANK YOU!

    So, the only thing I would like to get in future is advanced MIDI editor.

    translation !

    The software looks pretty good, but forcing it to use English is a really bad idea. I tried it briefly, but since I don't speak English, I quickly gave up. I think if translations are offered, I'll take a closer look at what it offers.

    Interesting experience.

    I usually work with LogicPro, then I discovered UAD Sound City Plugin and got the free version of LUNA. Then I started to like the UI and workflow of LUNA and got the full version.

    I like the way of my workflows and the UI (...do not overload it to avoid graphical stuttering). It took some time until I discovered the "Inserts" which are usually called "Plugins" but ok - it is a case of RTFM...

    I also searched for the "Save" entry - that works a bit different as well, but yeah - do not care about it, it is saved for you.

    Stuck with searching of the license of "Neve Summing" - still on Demo. RTFM again maybe... ;-)

    I like it, I work with it. :-)
