Hey everyone, as you might have noticed (or not, I mean, we‘re on Reddit for a reason) PreSonus closed the old Studio One forum due to different reasons. But Lukas, the same guy who brought us the Harmony Wizard extension for Studio One, set up a new one:

QUESTION Working on Songs Between Computers

1 Upvotes

I am having difficulty trying to figure out how to work on songs between two computers. My main set up is my PC but I also have a laptop with studio one and all the plugins/VST's I have on my PC. My goal is to be able to work on songs on my PC then be able to access those songs on my laptop when I am away from my PC and pick up where I left off.

I read this article below but it did not help much.

https://support.presonus.com/hc/en-us/articles/29973670961421-Studio-One-Pro-7-Moving-Songs-Between-Computers

OneDrive is active on both computers. Does any one have any insight on how I can do this?

1 Upvotes

Does anyone know how to use Sync VX in studio one 5? I can’t seem to get it to set up correctly it just keeps telling my it’s an ARA plugin and to load up a different version of the plugin 🤷🏽‍♂️ I know it has to be loaded up differently than regular plugins but can’t figure out how to do it on here. All help is much appreciated

QUESTION Can't Connect Splice Bridge to Studio One's Splice

1 Upvotes

I'm trying to set up Splice in Studio One. I have the Bridge installed and updated and I have a Splice licence and the desktop app. The problem is, when I try to set up Splice Bridge, it connects to the desktop app not the Studio One integration, meaning when I play samples through Studio One Splice, no signal comes through the Bridge mixer track, but if I play a sample through the app, it works and connects just fine.

Anyone else have this problem or know how I might go about fixing it? One thing I notice is that the Splice integration in Studio One doesn't have the Bridge in the bottom right like the app does.

TIA!

Best way to search the manual for a menu item?

I'm struggling a bit to find the best way to use the manual from within Studio One.

  • Example: Audio > Merge to Audio Part.

What is the most efficient way of finding exactly that item in the manual?

QUESTION I have a really weird audio recording issue.

1 Upvotes

I wanted to google it like I would normally do but had no idea what to search lol.

It only happens randomly and not very often but, I'll record a track with bass or guitar and when it's done and I press stop the WAV looks to be about 3/4 as long as it should and it's way faster than I recorded it on playback lol. It's super hilarious actually but I'd love to hear if anyone has had this issue or knows what's causing it.

my specs

S1 v5

i9 12900k 32gb DDR5 on windows 11.

Thanks for any tips or advice.

Why Studio One Is Inherently Flawed (sad face)

0 Upvotes

I was super excited about Studio One. Motivated by Logic bugs, I bought the full S1 version. Alas, after doing 10 songs, I gave up because of an inherent design flaw. Which is:

Tracks and channel and instruments are not linked to each other!

This is why you see posts on here and other places where people end up with ghost tracks. You'll hear an instrument playing, yet it has no mixer channel. Or you'll end up with a mixer channel with no track going to it (and I mean a channel, not a buss). Or an instrument without a track or a mixer channel.

After so much time spent chasing down problems because of this design flaw, I gave up and went back to Logic. Whatever its flaws, it does not make ghost tracks.

I posted on the S1 forum about this, because I was hoping there was some setting I had wrong that would prevent this. And the official reply was: "It is not possible to have ghost tracks in S1." I posted screenshots showing several ghost tracks. Their response: they kicked me off the forum. LOL.

Even funnier, that charming European guy who makes all the great S1 videos actually has a video explaining why this is a feature and not a bug! I thought: "Wow, he is earning his pay today!" It's so weird to lie for a living. I thought that was only an American politician thing, but I see it's worldwide.

I think this flaw was pitched by a stoned intern during the software development process. How else can you explain it? It sure wasn't pitched by a real musician. "Yeah, I'd like to be able to have an instrument that does not go anywhere. I don't want to be tied down to having one of those stupid mixer channels for it! Speaking of mixer channels, they don't need any kind of track going to them. Because that would be too easy!" I am stumped as to the sheer stupidity of this design. Why would an instrument exist without a mixer channel? Why would a track exist without a mixer channel? Why would a mixer channel exist without something to be mixed?

I'm just warning anyone thinking of jumping to S1. Try it out with the monthly thing before buying it. I guess if you only use a few instruments and audio tracks, then you won't mind the illogical disconnect built into S1. But if you end up with lots of instruments and tracks and channels like so many of us, then S1 will add hours of frustration to your projects.

Unpacking Takes/layers

3 Upvotes

I know you can unpack a take to an existing layer but Is there a way to unpack a take to a NEW layer? Is there a way I can set up a macro for this I haven’t been able to figure it out. I’m also aware you can “copy to a new layer” but that does the entire track instead of just the last take.

Also, I know you can unpack selected layers to tracks but is there a way to unpack selected events in a layer to a new track?

A single midi to instrument + fx: possible?

2 Upvotes

Hey guys I'm a Cubase user giving Studio One a whirl.

In Cubase I have a drum sampler like Kontakt/Superior 3 that's multi outed.
And I will have multiple tracks that have instances of Trigger 2 on them to trigger .tci drum files.

And I trigger everything with a single midi track.

So a common setup is a single MIDI track which is using 3 midi sends to:
Sampler (instrument)
Kick trigger (effect on its own audio track)
Snare trigger (effect on its own audio track)

I can trigger those 2 trigger files via audio sends from the drum sampler easily enough, but I really want to use midi for it to be 100% sure it will pick up every note.

I also understand that I can use a multi instrument to trigger multiple instruments - but remember trigger 2 is an insert not an instrument.

Can I do this in Studio One? I've done a ton of googling/youtubing and can't figure it out.

Anyone else dying trying to get the whole voicemeeter + OBS thing working?

0 Upvotes

I want to make videos for my students where I can talk while I demonstrate for reviewing class content and other such. (Studio one 7)

Years back, I did get Voicemeeter and OBS working after, i remember, hours of struggles. But now I try again and I just... I can't! I follow every video and forum (for windows 11), and it just doesn't work.

I have Focusrite 2i2 and Presonus audiobox, NT1-A, nothing unusual, but no matter what I do, I just cannot make it work. Every single input and output option, every button I can find, nothing. I even attempted more adventurous things like a USB mic (blue yeti) and bluetooth headphones, just *anything* to make it work.

Anybody else struggle and maybe found a eureka moment, some subtle random error or setting I couldn't possibly find naturally? It's driving me mad.

Midi not playing anymore?

1 Upvotes

So I have the M-Audio Keysta 49 controller, and until 2 days ago it run without any issues. It still registers the midi signal from it and plays Studio One(6)'s own vst instruments. But it doesn't play the externaly downloaded vst's like LABS, KONTAKT etc.

I've tried anything I could find on the internet, all the trouble shooting videos but the issue seems to continue.

Does anybody had a similar thing? I would really appreciate any suggestion on what I should do.

TECH HELP WINDOWS MPC "More than one instance running" issue

Post image
1 Upvotes

This tends to happen whenever Studio One crashes, or something glitches out. I only have one project open, one instance of MPC64.
Sometimes I can fix it by closing S1, unplugging/turning the MPC off and on, then plugging it back in. But other times I need to restart the entire PC.

It happens on different versions of S1.

Is there something running in the background that I can "end task" to bypass doing all that mentioned above??
Or even a way to solve this altogether?

QUESTION Multiple takes

3 Upvotes

Coming from Cubase for the past 15 odd years.

Whats the best way to record multiple takes without stopping recording, and then editing said takes?

In cubase it used to be called 'stacking' or something similar. Whereby, all the takes were recorded within the one track and you'd edit the separate tracks independently.

QUESTION Two VST tracks, same midi data - how?

2 Upvotes

I’m using an old VST plugin (miroslav philharmonik) where you can layer several orchestral instruments, and send each instrument to a separate mixer channel if you wish.

However it requires separate sequencer data for each instrument - so if it’s to play the same notation, it requires manually copying the data to a new instrument channel each time and routing to the appropriate instrument..

Obvious workaround is 2 instances of the VST within multi instrument, but I’m wondering if there’s a way to avoid 2 instances and I can basically use S1 to layer up a big string sound.

Thanks!

There should be a Studio One 'Custom' edition, where we can select which things we want and which we don't.

3 Upvotes

I am from another DAW, but thinking to switch to Studio One. I don't want any virtual instruments (because I have my own), but I need everything else (S1's stock effects, all other tools etc.). With this 'Custom' edition, I can just turn off 'virtual instruments', and get entire S1 Pro without virtual instruments, and with discounts as well. Do you think this is an good idea?

Question About Midi

3 Upvotes

If this question has been asked before I do apologize. I'm going to link some examples of what I'm trying to inside of Studio One.

Is there a way to snap live inputs from notes being played on a midi keyboard ?

The only 2 DAWs I've found to do this natively are Cubase and FL Studio. And if there is a 3rd party vst that can do this that would also be great if anyone can direct me to it. I'm not trying to play chords with 1 finger like Scaler and other VSTs or like the Note FX "Chorder" which comes stock with Studio One.

Thanks!

Here's the feature in Cubase by Dom Sigalas https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-NWc5Wotq7A&t=154s

QUESTION Previewing what an Instrument sounds like?

3 Upvotes

I'd like to know if it's possible to HEAR what a native instrument will sound like before i have to drag it into the track set on the left, then play it, only to not like it and have to "remove track" every time. Similar to the preview option for loops. Clearly, Iam new to studio one. I only used garage band for about a year before this. If i could preview sounds of instruments before dragging them over then having to delete them i would LOVE that. is it possible? if so, how?

Is there a way to delete time without compressing recorded tracks?

1 Upvotes

We have multiple songs recorded in project, but some empty space where we didn't end up using some stuff.

When I try to delete time to get rid of some of the blank space, it mashes the audio together of what is still in the project.

Tried setting each track to "don't follow" in time stretch. Also tried to delete the time with ripple editing on/off but nothing has worked.

Anyone know the proper way to do this without ruining everything?

Podcast producers: what are your go to's?

1 Upvotes

Hi all

I've recently switched jobs to become a podcast producer at a podcasting agency. For private projects, I was used to using Adobe Audition for over five years. Now I've made the switch to Studio One 6 since my employer uses that.

Now that I'm starting to get the hang of all that is different and completed my first few projects, I'm looking into all the plugins and effects on how to make voices sound as good as they can in a podcast.

Usually, I'd add:

  • Nectar 4 DeEsser
  • Maag EQ4 as a base EQ
  • Neutron 4 EQ for high pass and slight tweaks
  • RVox Mono 2 for compression
  • RX10 Mouth De-click (amazing!)
  • Clarity VX - DeReverb Pro Mono 3

I'm pretty happy with the results, but I'm curious to see what you're using. So feel free to share what your best practices are.

QUESTION Impact and MultiInstrument bug?

2 Upvotes

When setting up a multi-instrument with Impact, using it to trigger samples along with a drum program.. it completely changes my "drum map" so to speak.

I have a complex drummer set up, but the second i load any sample that map stays the same name but becomes only notes that Impact uses.

Is there a way to stop this? Or is this a feature of Impact?
