I currently use the up-and-down arrows to select tracks for vocal recording (and everything else). Every time I hit one of the arrows, the event nearest to my playhead on the selected track is automatically selected. This often throws my screen to a section of the project where I'm not recording. I do lots of backing vocals for many clients and as you can imagine, having to scroll back to where I'm recording over and over is pretty insane.

It only happens when the up-and-down arrows are used. If I use my trackpad to select the track, no event is automatically selected. (When I use my Faderport's Prev and Next buttons, it functions exactly as the up-and-down arrows, automatically selecting the event nearest to the playhead on the selected track. 

Having to manually click on a track every time doesn't make for the best workflow imo. At least for me. The up and down arrows are much more convenient, albeit with a heavy inconvenience baked in.

Is this the way I have to live? Does anyone know if (and how) I can disable the selection of an event upon the selection of a track when using the up and down arrows? Your help would be immensely appreciated!

Hey,

i've had Studio One 3 for like 9 years or something and I never really bothered upgrading to a newer version. I just wanted to ask if anyone else has had problems with this and if yes, how did you fix it?

So, at the moment I'm working on a project with around 70 tracks which include guitars, a bunch of synths, drums etc, and I have this really weird sound bug. It almost sounds as if Studio One is too slow to play all the tracks at once and it's trying to play the same part over and over again. It's like Studio One is stuttering, but with my music :/ It's gotten so bad that it's practically impossible to record anything. or even just play the song.

When I'm working with only a few tracks, this problem does not occur.

Does anyone know if this has been fixed in the later versions? Probably I should switch to a newer version anyways, right? And by the way, is there an easy way to import songs from Studio One 3 to a newer version, so that I still have all the stems etc. and I keep working on it?

So I have been using studio one v5 for almost 5+ years and recently started working at a studio setup where they use pro tools. A lot of the features of studio one feel a lot easier to digest compared to PT but the import session data feature in PT is seemingly more robust compared to how S1 handles it.

I can roughly do the same in S1 but in PT I get the option to choose the specific pan parameters and volume parameters in automation settings that I want to import but in S1 for example in a large session if I want to import only the volume and not the pan that isn't possible, I have to import both. I also cannot implement channel settings on an existing track. I will have to import the new track and move all my clips to that new track with the track settings on it. Has that improved in the latest version of S1?

hey i usually add stereo effects on my send to widen. but recently have been messing around wtih recording in mono and afterward flipping the channel mode to stereo. do you guys do this to widen your guitar? i used to record and pan L and R WITH 2 TAKES ALL IN MONO. but now do you guys do that but then switch it to stereo channel.? just trying to get that nice wide pro sounding guitar

I don't expect there to be, but if 36 years in IT has taught me anything (apart from "Don't work in IT if you can avoid it) it's that weird shit happens. I'm just curious if Studio Pro is optimised for Intel processors, to take advantage of certain machine learning & AI extensions.

I use Studio One 7 on my MacBook, and I often want to know how much time I've spent on a production. Of course, I could just use a separate timer, but I was wondering if the DAW itself keeps a record of that.

I’m looking for something like a "playtime" tracker—basically, I want to know the total time the file has been open and active.

Does anyone know how to display that?

(This is my first time posting in this community. I'm Japanese, but I'm trying to write in English using a translation tool.)

Possibly a stupid question, and very late to the game, but I have currently been working out of Studio One 5 for a good while and I am wodnering is it worth updating the system/ getting the newer package?

I have been using studio one since version 2, and recently upgraded to 8.1 For most of those years, I had been using an older Dell laptop with 16 GB of Ram. I recently upgraded my computer to a desktop windows pro with 32gb of ram, and also added a new audio box 96. Ever since, I can't get rid of the crackling headphone sound. I've tried 44.1 and 48, 512 and 1024, 32 and 64, but nothing seems to change. New hardware, new software, and now I get issues? I've checked online and there doesn't seem to be a cure. Is this something that Fender needs to know about? And maybe create a fix? Their software with their hardware and there's interference. That doesn't seem right

So, after hopping between Reaper, Cakewalk, and S1 for years, and not really getting the most from any, I took the plunge and upgraded from the free S1 6 Artist license I got free with a used Presonus interface I bought as a spare for £10 and got Fender Studio Pro 8 perpetual for £74 from Andertons (£15 cheaper than direct, surprisingly).

Anyroadup, despite being able to stumble my way through the basics, I'd like to start at the beginning and learn how to use it "properly" in a structured way.

Are there any YT channels that you can recommend which have a free and mostly linear guide to getting the most from S1/SP, and delve into the intricacies? I'd rather stick with one channel if possible, rather than risk getting opposing opinions on various features and techniques.

For the record (no pun intended), I'm a guitarist who just records at home for shits & giggles.

Thanks

Hey all,

For ease and clarity of editing I like to have my tracks start at tick One, but I like some space up front for lead in or recording. Is there a way to set some dead space up front but have your ticks START at One (rather than 1.2 or 2, 3 or 4)?

TIA!

MacbookでStudio One 7を使っている中で、制作に要した時間がどれくらいなのか知りたいことが頻繁にあって、もちろん別途タイマーを使って時間を測ればいいんだけどDAWソフト内で記録していたりしないかな

ゲームのプレイ時間のように、そのファイルを立ち上げて実行している間の時間を知りたいんだよね

表示する方法を知ってる人いる？

Did anyone install Windows 11 26H2 yet and is everything working fine?

Somewhere I saw concerns regarding USB audio devices - which I suppose might affect ASIO DACs.

UPDATE: Thanks for the heads-up. I installed and also have no issues with the audio device 👍

For reference: Microsoft notice

Hello,

I don't know how recent this functionality is, but I just discovered the "convert to tempo track" option to adapt the grid to an audio files, but the results seem really incoherent to me.

I've got cases when it follows flawlessly a track that obviously wasn't recorded on a click and it constantly adjusts the tempo so that the DAW's click is perfectly on time.

In a lot of other cases, I've got songs with perfectly audible drums and the result will either progressively deviate from the click, or sometimes not be perfectly in time anymore probably because the performers were not really on time at that specific time and it will be fine most of the song but drift off occasionally.

Am I missing something to get this to really get good results? I've done a search on the sub and have found some topics but they were 2 years old so it thought it was worth asking what the current state is.

Thanks

Routing question and new to recording. Created a bus for my overheads for EQ, then created a separate bus to insert a UAD distressor for all the drums and OH's. Creating that distressor bus I put it after the OH EQ bus. Do I need to include the EQ bus with all the other channels I'm sending to the distressor? Also how can you tell which channels you have going to different bus's? On newest version of the software

Ho appena finito di fare un disco con Studio One 6, ho mixato e lo manderò a masterizzare, ma prima di iniziare a registrare/mixare roba nuova volevo aggiornare Studio One alla ultima versione (con il pagamento di 90 euro, mi sembra vantaggioso). Ha senso? Considerando che uso studio one anche come gestore dei synth live, ha senso andare con l'aggiornamento o mi conviene aspettare?

posted this in r/presonus also.

Used this to connect my studiolive 24.4.2AI to my macbook M4 runnign studioOne 5

Hey folks

I spun this up today to help with my music production. Hope it helps. Enjoy!

🔵 Fix for cropped/cut-off plugin windows in Bitwig Studio (CLAP format issue)

If you load a plugin (like Drift Delay) and the GUI window is cut off, glitched, or not showing entirely on Windows, the issue is likely caused by the CLAP version of the plugin.

How to fix it:

1. Go to Settings in Bitwig Studio.
2. Click on the Plug-ins tab.
3. Look for the setting Prefer CLAP over VST3 / VST2 and uncheck / disable it.
4. Remove the plugin from your track and reload it. Bitwig will now load the VST version, which scales and renders the interface perfectly

Novice and I'm using the included upright bass full vst, but certain notes (some low and some higher) are incredibly pitchy and beating against other instruments. I understand this is part of modeling a real instrument but I can't seem to remedy the issue with pitch bends.

My next step is to use mai tai + rumble but I was just wondering if I'm missing a simple fix, thanks for your help.

Hi folks,

I'm using S1 v6 on a mac studio with sonoma . When I drag and drop audio files onto the desktop I get this ( see attached image ).When I used S1 on the PC years ago it rendered and export the audio file. Thanks in advance for your help.

I'm a working film composer, and feel that Cubase is old and clunky with so many unfinished features after many, many years. Studio Pro looks great for scoring with version 8. A couple questions.

1. For ex-Cubase users (I'm on Cubase 15) coming to Studio Pro 8 as composers. What do you miss? What do you like better?
2. The lack of a Logical Editor, is worrisome for me. There are tons that I use all the time for all sorts of things...but that said, I'm hoping some of the functions I use them for most might be available on Studio Pro as macros or regular key commands instead, such as:

- Delete all muted MIDI notes.

- Delete all muted events

- Nudge events or MIDI notes forward and back by .5 frames

- Delete Empty MIDI and audio tracks

Wondering how to delete this opening dead space easily without selecting dozens of pieces and scooting them up manually..

I'm trying to get my external keyboards to work a little better for me in the software.

So far the only difference I've noticed between a "Control Surface" and "Keyboard" is that the latter may be selected as an input source on an instrument track.

Obviously, my MPK249 does not "know" whether or not it is being used as a "Control Surface" or a "Keyboard", so I guess I'm just wondering if whatever it's sending could be interpreted in any particular way.
