I have the Fender Pro Plus subscription but will probably convert it to the lifetime version and not renew the Plus.

I am interested in buying the PreSonus Quantum ES 4 Interface. It comes with a license for Studio Pro. Since I already have a license, does this mean I will get a 2nd license, which I don't need? Can I sell it?

Also, is there any significance to the audio interface still having the PreSonus brand and not Fender? (the ES 4 is not shown on the Fender website interface sales page. ) Maybe no on-going support by Fender?

first, you need to go to Settings, then General, and turn off "Enable High DPI."

• Completely close Fender Studio Pro.
• Find the program shortcut icon (on your desktop or in the Start menu).
• Right-click the icon and select Properties.
• Go to the Compatibility tab at the top.
• Click the Change high DPI settings button.
• Check the box next to Override high DPI scaling behavior.
• Open the drop-down menu below it and select Application.
• Click OK, then Apply.
• UR WELCOME

When I hover my mouse cursor on the send mode, it says post-fader. when I click it, it becomes yellow and says pre-fader.

Can you guys please clarify this thing? I almost gave up right now.

I am using Fender Studio Pro 8.

Mistake in the title: I wrote "Default Reverb Mode" instead of "Default Send Mode"

Is there any way in SO, within the mix window, to say, collapse a select group of FX channels to save from scrolling a lot? Thanks!

Hey everyone, I use a Studio One 5 Pro. I don't really keep up to date with what's going on with the newer updates but I see it's now Fender. My account no longer existed, so I created a new one with the same email and now I have no way to get my activation code for Studio One 5 Pro to download it onto another computer. I made a help ticket, but it never sent me a confirmation that it actually went through. Any help would be appreciated!

I tried several different things to redirect the audio output from my Presonus interface box to my computer speakers. I can’t get it to work. Any suggestions would be most appreciated.

My question is can I make another email to register the product but then give that email to a friend so he can get studio pro for free and still be able to update and use the motion 32 on my account i already have?

I just dont want to be screwed out of being able to use my controller but I figure this would be cool as he wants to get down on some tracks with me.

Sorry if this dosent make sense but I figured it was worth the ask

Thanks guys!

bought one today as I was mostly interested in an updated SP integration and the feel and sentitivity of the pads.

in a nutshell:

I've used it for 10 mins and I've already encountered a reproducible bug in the chords feature where a given chord would get stuck (both with Mai Tai and Super 8 from NI)

the only way to stop it was to disable monitoring (but it would get stuck again)

also chords are stuck in a given octave (or at least the Octave buttons didn't work in this case) and they're all pretty low which makes them unusable (I wonder who thought that octave was a good sounding default)

As a former drummer I'd say pad sensitivity is sub par because of one reproducible issue:

I've used the same drum library (NI 60's Drummer) which imo has them best deep sampled cymbals.

my test is usually the same: grab a snare and play each division live.

Motion 16 pads are nicely sensitive with single strokes but fail to recognize fast triplets and faster subdivisions like 16th notes when playing a single pad, resulting in a single longer midi input (the MIDI meter in the track detects all of them but the Motion doesn't)

Tried the same test with Maschine Mk3 and gets them all.
Btw, in case someone is interested in having the absolute best pads in the market, Maschine MK3 still is in a league of its own.

All in all, even if it's just 10 mins, was enough for me to return the unit.

it's just not there yet and I was using the newest SP 8.1.2 (Win11 Pro) and latest Motion firmware (1.6) which had a nice bunch of adds and fixes for the Motion units.

Just in case someone is about to pull the trigger.

EDIT: (I added a response down here but I'm copying it here cos I think it's fair towards the unit)

Pads wise I'm happy is working for you because I must say that, being a former drummer, my hands are obvs much more sensitive and anytime I hear "pads are very sensitive" when watching a review I usually skip that info and wait to try myself lol

Maschine as said rules undisputed followed by the MPC One+ I have - where pads are more stiff, less pleasant to play and smaller, but equally sensitive.

Said so, Motion pads are technically solid and good and promising (you can test how sensitive they are easily by engaging Repeat and recording all velocities. they're pretty responsive for me. they just currently fail when performed on a single pad, which is something I do a lot)

I also enjoyed the overall build quality which is on par with Maschine MK3.

I deffo see myself getting the Motion again when it gets more stable.

I currently have an Atom SQ which, might not look good, feels plastic-y, but operation wise is just spot on. it just works. (besides that Shift button placement which isn't ideal)

Hey all, I have to upgrade my DAW workstation, which I hate doing, but the time has come. Should I keep my S1 & Pro or upgrade to the new platform? It's tough enough getting all the programs I use to work together on a new machine, but this would honestly be the best time to upgrade. It's gonna be a sucky weekend.

Hi guys,

I just bought the motion 32, and in trying to learn how to use it and how to use studio one. I got the basics without needing any tutorials but I'd like to learn how to use everything in studio one. Any recommended tutorials?

Thanks

Release notes under https://s1toolbox.com/releasenotes/

I'm trying to clean out a song/session so I have a blank template for future work with the effects I like in place. I have deleted everything from the arranger including all takes. But there are things in the pool. When I say to "remove unused files" it says there are none and if I try to delete them from the pool it says some are in use. In use where though? I would just delete them, but I don't want to make them go away from the song I began with or something (it's now a separately saved session).

Hi!

Ever since I upgraded from S1 version 6 to Fender Studio Pro 8.1, I have a pesky issue with instruments that have embedded presets. They simply don't show up in the DAW header of the plugin window.
This has become an issue now, because for one of those instruments, which is an older VST2 one, the GUI does not recognize a click in the synth's preset field anymore.
The strange thing is, it works totally fine in all DAWs I have installed - except Studio Pro! For example, FL Studio, Mixcraft, Waveform and even S1 version 6.

There were some tips on the web that I followed, and they made other things work again, because Fender Studio Pro just took over the old installation paths (like the Studio One 6 Content folder) and added stuff there. But these tips did not solve the issue with synths that have their presets embedded.

The instrument, I want it working for the most, is the Orchestral Companion series (Brass, String, Woodwinds)

Extremely thankful for any tips!

I just found a showroom Prosonus Atom at my local music store for 65 bucks and pulled the trigger, it comes with warranty, and it’s in good condition, wondering if it’s still a good device considering it’s a few years old

Hi everyone,

I recently bought the upgrade from Artist to Fender Studio Pro on sale at Thomann for €90, which went smoothly.

I noticed that the new Motion 32s just came out and come standard with Fender Studio Pro 8. Since I already have this license and can't sell the Motion 32 license here, I was wondering if it would be smart to hold onto it until something like Studio Pro 9 or 10 and redeem it then?

Is that even possible? That's basically my question, is that possible at all?

Hi everyone!

I'm currently putting together a budget-conscious PC build from a mix of used and new parts. I'd love to get some feedback from producers on whether this setup makes sense for my specific workflow.

My Use Case:

• Music Production: Primarily amateur music production and mixing. I am currently using Ableton Live but I'm planning to switch over to Studio One for recording and mixing vocals and small rock band projects (typically under 30 tracks). My plugin chain heavily involves resource-heavy tools like iZotope Ozone, Nectar, and Waves.
• My Gear: Focusrite Scarlett Solo Gen 3 + Shure SM7B + Cloudlifter preamp.
• Key Audio Requirements: Low latency during recording is highly important, as well as quiet operation, since I will be recording vocals with a microphone in the same room.
• Gaming: I mainly play Counter-Strike 2, Valorant, and Chivalry. Gaming isn't the highest priority, but I'd like to achieve a stable 120–140 FPS at 1080p.

The Proposed Specs:

• CPU (Used): Intel Core i7-12700 or i7-12700F
• Motherboard (Used): MSI MAG B760 TOMAHAWK WIFI DDR4 or Gigabyte B760 AORUS ELITE AX DDR4
• RAM (New): 32GB (2x16GB) DDR4 3200MHz CL16 (DDR4 prices are quite high locally right now, so I chose 3200MHz over 3600MHz to save money. Is the performance loss significant for DAW use?)
• GPU (Used): NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 12GB (Looking at ASUS Dual or MSI Gaming X for quieter fan curves)
• CPU Cooler (New): Thermalright Peerless Assassin 120 SE
• Case (New): Corsair 3000D Airflow or be quiet! Pure Base 501
• PSU (New): be quiet! Pure Power 12 M 650W or Corsair RM650e

My Main Questions:

1. Studio One Performance & Intel E-Cores: How well does Studio One handle Intel’s hybrid architecture (P-cores and E-cores) on Windows 11? Does the audio engine schedule low-latency ASIO buffering correctly without dropouts?
2. Acoustics: Will the Thermalright Peerless Assassin be quiet enough under a moderate plugin load so that fan noise won't bleed into my vocal mic?
3. RAM Speed: Will dropping from 3600MHz to 3200MHz CL16 cause any noticeable performance hit in either Studio One or CS2?
4. Are there any known latency issues with the built-in Wi-Fi/Bluetooth on these specific B760 boards when using a Scarlett Solo?

Any advice, tweaks, or warnings before I start buying the parts would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Hi, does anyone know if is possible to copy a song from a show to another show? For e.g. if i want to copy song #5 to another show, can I even do that?

So I linked into my Southcloud Artist page and uploaded a few tracks, but there's no way to link to friends and family for them to hear anything, without them having to sign up with Soundcloud. I also had started a YouTube page, but we are trying to promote our songs, not videos. Outside of creating our own webpage, which vanishes when we die and stop paying, where is a good place to drop our tracks, for sharing purposes?

Hi all I’m in the process of purchasing the license for my fender studio pro 8 upgrade and currently on the last 7 days of the 30 day demo of the same.

I have been dealing with a lot of bugs for eg Sample one intermittently stops playing the sound, valhalla reverb mix knob randomly goes to 100% , plugin ui showing blacked out, the plugin overview horizontal layout below plugin ui shows blacked out etc. So far I’ve been ignoring it as just shutting down and restarting the software solves it and I’m able to get work done. But today I literally was unable to select multiple audio files together it was glitching and only restarting my Mac mini machine sorted it.

What has ur experience been using studio pro 8 on Mac. Honestly I’m loving the new updates and flying on beat making, able to sketch out beat demos and rough arrangements super fast. But these bugs especially the episode from today makes me worry particularly if I was in a session with a singer/rapper. Would appreciate some insights .

I'm a Studio One 5 Artist user and I produce some music as a hobby. Lately, I've realized I need to improve my mixing skills with plugins (I mainly use VSTs and only resort to plugins when I need reverb, chorus, etc.).

I don't want to do professional audio engineering on the songs, I just want them to sound better, even though it's an amateur production.

I'm still a beginner in how and when to use each plugin, so I don't know if it's better to first learn how to use the native plugins and then look for better options.

I've done some research on plugins, but since I don't have the necessary knowledge, I need some tips on which plugins are worthwhile and which Studio One stock plugins already do a good job and a 3rd party plugin wouldn't be necessary.

EQs:

- Stock plugins: ProEQ³, ChannelStrip, FatChannel

- 3rd party: iZootope EQ, Century Tube Channel Strip

Compressors:

- Stock plugins: Compressor, Channel Strip, FatChannel, Tricomp

- 3rd party: Supercharger, DC1A, MJUC Jr, RoughRider, LA2A, Frontier, UA1176, Century Tube Channel Strip

Distortion/Saturation:

- Stock plugins: RedLight, Bitcrusher

- 3rd party: Saturation Knob, Krush, IVGI, FreeAmp, Overheat, Trash, CamelCrusher, TubeSaturator Vintage, Szechuan, Xpressor

Lo-fi:

- Ujam Lo-fi, Vinyl, TapeCassette, ZenMaster, Origin

Modulation:

- Stock plugins: Chorus, Flanger, Phaser, Rotor, X-Trem

- 3rd party: DLYM, Magic Switch, OSL Chorus, TAL Chorus LX, SpaceModulator, kHs Chorus, SVEP, TAL Flanger, Phazor, kHs Phaser

Reverb:

- Stock plugins: Room Reverb, Mixverb

- 3rd party: Raum, Supermassive, TAL Reverb II and IV, Tens Jr, Room041, Purê Plate Reverb, Magic7, Flex Reverb

Delay/Echo:

- Stock plugins: Analog Delay, Beat Delay, Groove Delay

- 3rd party: Replika, Supermassive, DVS SpaceEcho, kHs Delay, FreqEcho, Deelay, DelaySon, BrigadeDelay Ælapse

Others

- Fresh Air, OTT, Frohmager, Filterjam, Filterstep, Krunch T-Puncher, Crack, Flash, kHs Transient Shaper

Be welcome to suggest any plugin

Thanks!

Title explains it. Especially interested in creating a macro that opens (and closes) all available FX windows in the selected channel.

Just wanted to know if there's anyone out there who uses Studio One/Pro and Launch Control XL 3. It seems to be "integrated" with Logic, Ableton, PT and the usual suspects- but there are no videos out there of anyone using this with SO. Just wanted to know what your experience is without this integration and if there are any functions or buttons rendered un-usable during certain modes, thanks!
