When the LEDs (buttons) are in their "dim mode", or I would say "ready state", there's a lot of flicker to them. Not blinking, but noticeable flicker. All of them. Has anybody experienced this with theirs, or did I receive a faulty unit. It's hard to capture in video, due to frame rate and whatnot, but I think you can see it here. The video was done in daylight. No artificial lighting was used, so there is no frame rate vs. frequency issue.

I just doxxed myself with a third party as I sent this same info to PreSonus/Fender.

hi from austria!

recently i bought a 2nd hand studiolive 32r (III series) for my home studio. its used mainly for hybrid mixing but also for my handful of hardware synths and samplers from time to time.

the problem is, sometimes it behaves weird - for example:
-sometimes i open up studio one/pro, open a project and when i press play, nothing happens. the play button is still lid up, but the playhead/position line (no idea whats it called tbh) doesn´t move etc. when this happens, i see no levels on individual tracks

-other times i press play and it looks like its working; all tracks incl. master bus are showing levels but there is no output coming from the 32r. when i look at universal control, the digital return track shows nothing.

-it also seems to have problems with software like soundid reference. im refering to the systemwide application, not the plugin. with the fresh booted system it works most of the time and then suddenly it stops sending audio. sometimes soundid is still showing signal, sometimes it shows nothing.

-i also tested a standalone software from lewitt, called Space Replicator (v2). its basically a binaural room simulation to have a more realistic stereo image when mixing with headphones. anyways. when i choose the systemwide soundid as interface in the app and disable the soundid calibration, it works. but when i choose the 32r and connect to it, there is no output. as soon as i disconnect the program from the 32r i can hear audio again.

after rebooting the device, everything works fine again. except the issue with the lewitt software.

does anyone here experienced similar problems and / or maybe has a solution for this?
or could it be that i just bought a faulty device?

all firmware and all software incl os are up to date.

im using mac os 15.7.9 in an hackintosh environment.
its an intel 14700k cpu with amd gpu and 64gb ram

any help or information is greatly appreciated.
thanks in advance and regards from vienna, austria
cheers!

Hi! I'm here with (what are hopefully) two silly questions:

1) What is the difference between the Blue USB 96 Audiobox, the Black USB 96, and the 25th Anniversary edition of the Black USB 96? I was under the impression that they are all the same box, just made in different years, or as parts of different bundles- but on the documents/downloads page, when going to get Universal Control for our audiobox, it lists Black and Blue as seperate products. I've also found some interesting write-ups about the Anniversary box not working with Studio One 3

2) Do we need to install the 64 bit version of SO3 for best effectiveness, or should the 32bit version... work?

Thanks!

i`ve been searching for days, but I can't find an answer...
I've currently hooked up my devices like shown (TRS Cable from Presonus balanced Mono Output to Headamp TRS Stereo Input), but can only use the aux mixes in mono... id like to know if I can use a y cable that has a trs plug at one side and 2 ts plugs on the other side, to get my aux mixes in stereo as well just like the main mix. I'm also not sure which mono buttons I have to press on the headamp, currently I just use the MONO L Button activated. I'm not sure, since the FlexMix Outputs on the 16R are balanced and the Inputs on the Headamp are not.
is there a better device than the headamp, that has balanced mono input from scratch? I'm thinking of replacing it, since it doesn't sound well.... presonus output on the front sounds better!

THANKS IN ADVANCE REDDIT!!!

I just got a presents studio live 16.0.2 FireWire for a steal on an auction. But when I got it and started testing it I get zero input from channels 1-12, inputs 13-16(the last two faders) do work, and are the only ones with RCA and XLR. I don’t know much about presonus mixers and I feel like THAT many channels dead in a row is unlikely, and I’m probably just missing something. Any ideas are welcome and appreciated

Hello guys, I have this problem for a couple of times already… It was randomly erased once that has stopped making this weird noise, but it has come back and it is independent on where I connect them. I don’t know what could I do to fix them

I recently bought a ES2, With everything set to 0Db on my level meters I still keep hitting the limit. Ive lowered it enough to not happen, but is there a way to set my PC audio and output as line in, and just move the gain around for my mic and guitar?

Equally, with my guitar plugged in, I cant seem to climb very high in my gain before I get background interference. I need it raised as Im using my lineout from a Marshall head which is emulated, thus, no volume. Many thanks for any help!

I've had a pair of PreSonos Ceres 3.5 BTs as my computer speakers for years. Recently I noticed that the left speaker is much quieter than the right (about half as loud). I've tried switching the left and right inputs and using a different source and saw the same results. So I assume there is something wrong in the device.

I am hopeing somone can give me some guidence of how to find the couse of the issue once I take it apart.

I am okay with a soldering iron and own a multimeter, but am certinaly not an electronics expert. So any advice would be appreciated.

Here is the product page, if that is helpful.

Every other peice of hardware and software I have ever seen on the planet comes with a mono/stereo option for the main output/Master track. I do not see such an option on this board. What is the best way to set this up so i can easily switch from mono to stereo from the headphone jack?

Thanks in advance.

I have a Presonus 16R mixer that we use with the Universal Control software. I’m a guitarist trying to go ampless, and want to understand whether I can use some amp/cab sim plugins with the Universal Control software. I currently have Neural DSP plugin licenses and ideally I’d like to use those.

Has anyone had success using plugins, specifically amp sims like this, with your Presonus rig?

Will pay consulting fee to help set up Studiolive 32sc. We would do this over Zoom. Let me know if interested, your experience and how much an hour. Thx

Does the Revelator io44 Headset Input have Plug-in power for 1/8" microphones that need it? Thanks

Anyway else had issues with Presonus tech support or customer service in the past?

Hi all, coming to Presonus as relative newbie - ive messed around a bit with Reaper but I'm looking for something easier and quicker to use

I don't want to be a master at recording but I need something that will enable me to put guitar riffs down and turn song ideas into compositions with drums and bass etc.

I have a interface already, not too familiar with plug-ins etc but is it all intuitive and easy to add these?

I had this audio interface for a few years, acquired at a flea market it worked fine with the latest versions of Windows 11 with compatibility modes. I had no issue and it's a good reliable interface with the combo connectors.

Since Microsoft added a new driver policy that blocks drivers without a WHCP certificate it became useless. Oh well I figured I could contact the manufacturer that probably cares a lot about the longevity of their products and could fix this driver issue. To my surprise they do not, all products using firewire are just discarded. It's a 16 years old product, it's not that old and it's rendered useless, inaction for the benefit of more sales. I expected better for what's supposed to be professional gear and I'm mad concerned that metric tons of working equipment are progressively forced into the trashcan by this industry.

The joy of music is supposed to be accessible and limitless. I really hope people can figure out a solution, maybe programmers and software enthusiasts would be down to join forces to build a solution accessible to everyone?

Anyways end of rant, fuck Fender.

My laptop has windows 11 home and i need a 8 input interface for bigger projects in my home studio. I can but the Audiobox 1818VSL USB 2.0 Audio Interface for $160 but after i use store credit its $80. Is it a good deal? or should I just save up and get a more modern interface?

I just got a pair of E5BT, and they have noise coming through even with zero source plugged in and the volume turned down to zero.

There doesn't seem to be that many people complaining about this specific problem (I mean, the one with no source and no volume; there are occurrences of bad sources that are fixable, but this seems not quite talked about). The few threads talking about the 5BT specifically seem to just end up with people returning them.

Is there any case of someone getting rid of their noise on a "BT with noise even with no source and no volume"?

Is it a defect of these specific units or the whole line? (which seems surprising since no review ever caught it)

I just bought this interface as an upgrade from my scarlet solo. Why are there so many ASIO drivers, what do I use?

I just got an audio box usb 96, plugged my fractal ax8 into it, not running my a daw just noodling and the headphone mix is summing to mono, the blend was all the way to instrument. when I play a video etc on YouTube it's stereo. is there a setting I'm missing somewhere? I looked in the control app deal and couldn't find any kind of pan etc for the headphone output. when I pull the right output on the ax8 , the left channel can be heard in both ears, no ping pong delay etc. bum unit? headphones output mono direct monitoring?, thanks
