MusicXML import and export
Drum Editor for MIDI drum parts

Advanced compatibility with Cubase 4 projects
The Nuendo Expansion Kit integrates music tools from Cubase 4 seamlessly into the Nuendo 4 application. This makes Nuendo 4 completely compatible with Cubase 4 projetcs, ideal for mixed Cubase and Nuendo workflows. The separate NEK license on the Steinberg Key adds additional flexibility, allowing NEK functionality to be added to any other Nuendo system.
Cubase Music Notation
The Nuendo Expansion Kit (NEK) integrates an extensive set of functions and tools for music notation and score printing directly into Nuendo. The Score Editor has been conceived to allow any possible piece of music to be displayed as a score, complete with all the necessary symbols and formatting. It allows you to extract parts out of a full orchestra score, to add lyrics and comments, create lead sheets, score for drums, create tablature, etc. In other words: just about any type of notation you could ever desire!
MusicXML Import & Export
MusicXML is a data format for interchange of musical scores. It`s supported by a growing number of companies to facilitate the exchange of musical scores between applications. Nuendo 4 plus NEK now supports both MusicXML import and export, allowing it to become the center of a multi-platform and multi-application music score workflow.
Cubase Drum Editor
The Drum editor was developed especially for drum sequencing. A few clicks are all it takes to create complete drum tracks. And you can create an individual drum map for every employed instrument.
Virtual Instrument: HALion One
With HALion One, the Nuendo Expansion Kit adds powerful sample playback synthesis to Nuendo 4. Based on Steinberg`s award-winning HALion architecture, HALion One is optimized for use with MediaBay, and comes with more than 650 brand-new ready-to-play sounds covering dozens of acoustic and electronic instruments, as well as hundreds of colorful synth timbres.
Virtual Instrument: Prologue
Prologue is a wonderfully rich-sounding virtual analog synthesizer that will become an indispensable part of your VSTi arsenal. Prologue's textural range includes lush, detailed pads and bright, acerbic leads and everything in between.
Virtual Instrument: Spector
Spector provides exceedingly original yet detailed sounds with its two extremely colorful and versatile spectrum filters, yet also adds the power of up to six oscillators per voice with two different waveforms each.
Virtual Instrument: Mystic
Mystic`s awesomely versatile yet startlingly original and unique audio characteristics are based on three parallel comb filters with feedback. The sound source is an �impulse sound� based on physical modeling technology.
