Nuendo and WaveLab Pro are more complimentary than competitive. It has a design focus on Mastering and Restoration, and has track-level spectral editing and is also a destructive wave editor - on top of all the production features. The only DAW that is somewhat comparable to WaveLab Pro is Samplitude Pro X Suite. It is used for Audio Restoration, as well. It's also an advanced Audio Editior (Non-Destructive Montage and Destructive Waveform Editor), which also does Spectral Editing. Not just single tracks, but full albums, etc.


It is more similar to Adobe Audition, with a much bigger emphasis on Audio Mastering. WaveLab is a Mastering DAW and advanced Audio Editing Application. Nuendo is to Cubase what Pro Tools | Ultimate is to Pro Tools, or what Sequoia is to Samplitude Pro X. Nuendo is Cubase Pro with features for Sound Design (Game Audio, Post Production), Film Workfows, and Broadcast.
