When mixing 5.1 to An LTRT (Stereo) In Nuendo The output channel from Nuendo It a 5.1 Output channel. using either Nugen Downmix Or Surcode 5.1 to make an LTRT When Rendered Will it down mix to just a stereo file? Because Surcode / Nugen Downmix sends out a poly audio file of 6 channels, And only 2 are used. So I have to split the Poly files to extract the stereo files. Make sence??? HAHAHA I need to take a 5.1 mix and downmix to a LTRT ( Stereo) with out spiting the 5.1 channel output. Is there a downmix function In Nuendo yo do this funtion? Thanks Steven
LtRt was added in a recent version, maybe v13, canât remember.
Search the manual for it. You basically just downmix it natively with âmixconvertâ v6 as a panner instead of using a third party plugin.
For a stereo downmix from 5.1 to stereo I route the signal to a 5.1 bus, use the plugin MixConvert V6 and send this signal to a stereo bus.
This was about LT/RT though, not LoRo.
For downmix to LoRo thereâs not even a need for MixConvert unless you want to change settings. Just routing to a stereo output will give you a proper downmix automatically. Again, for LoRo.

You are totally right.
In what context is LTRT even used nowadays?
Never got asked for one.
âUsedâ? No idea. But I actually had to deliver LTRT along with 5.1/stereo with stems for a series just a couple of months ago. I bet a lot of the time the user of the term is probably âlegacyâ, they never use it, or they think it is equal to regular stereo (LoRo).
Now that itâs easier than ever to do in Nuendo I never ask if thatâs what they want, I just give it to them.
