Taken from Nuendo forums

If you use Nuendo with Pulsar XTC at home and With Pulsar I at work. The Nuendo/Pulsar combination works great; very flexible routing etc. The XTC is nice too, for some of the synths; some are quite allright (but be aware: no latency compensation from within Nuendo). Stay away from the plugin FX though; very average sounding. The big downside is that the XTC actually uses a lot of CPU power, especially when using plugs that require RAM, such as reverb or delay based FX.
So, here you go:
1. If you want it for the plugins; buy the UAD-1
2. If you want it for the synths; buy the XTC and live with timing probs or buy the Powercore.

One more time... Nuendo2 and Cubase 2 have both delay compensation - it works just like UAD1 and Powercore in Nuendo, the rest is mostly bullshit (except for the memory thing)! (that includes the XTC plugin quality comment)

Hi samspacey
Do you think can you post the link to this Nuendo forum thread? I would like to defend XTC with SX2 as I use it.

Sam, please post the link, I'd like to see what this guy was going on about (hope it wasn't you!). There is a setting in Nuendo that can cause midi timing to go awry & it's *not* a Pulsar thing at all. XTC timing hasn't been a problem for me, even in SX 1.6.

Me ...no... I only post stuff that I'm sure about. I'll see if I can find the link. I have had no trouble in Xtc mode with timing, totally sample accurate in Nuendo 2 in xtc.

I've decided no to go with the new emu cards as I need 8 in and 8 uts and cant afford a decent adat convertor, but I am putting the Puksar 2 card in a seperate machine to use as a synth live. That way I can run it at 44.1khz (as the new synths upsample to 96khz), and have 3 synths at the same time as opposed to 1 ad an effect at 96khz in xtc mode. Loving the Pro-1 at the mo : )
