Video +0.1% pull-up for NTSC
Since NTSC video is running -0.1% slower than the origi-
nal film, pulling the video speed back up by +0.1%, re-
turns it to original film speed. With the video now running 
at the correct film speed, audio originally recorded at 
48 kHz on the film shoot will remain in sync with the video. 
Additionally, the final mix can be digitally transferred back 
to film at 48 kHz without the need for an analog copy or 
sample rate conversion.

How the ReWire channels are 
handled in Nuendo
When you activate ReWire channels in the ReWire De-
vice panels, they will become available as channel strips in 
the mixer. The ReWire channel strips have the following 
properties:
ReWire channels appear to the right of the other audio 
and MIDI channel strips in the mixer.
ReWire channels may be any combination of mono and 
stereo, depending on the synthesizer application.
ReWire channels have the same functionality as regular 
audio channels....
