ChevChelios Posted February 8, 2010 Share Posted February 8, 2010 Welcome to Studio One All Meat. No Fat.Artists of all levels, from beginner to seasoned professional, will find Studio One a welcome alternative to the intimidating, bloated offerings currently considered the standards.Studio One is a groundbreaking music creation and production application for Mac OS X and Windows XP/Vista that makes audio recording, MIDI sequencing, and audio mastering ridiculously simple right out of the box.It’s a creative environment built for intuitive use, speed, and efficiency–and yet it’s robust enough for the most complex productions. It’s the DAW that a band of leading recording-hardware engineers and a team of industry-defining software-design veterans want to use for themselves. It’s incredibly easy to use yet provides a wealth of professional features.Far from just another music-production program, Studio One changes the rules of the game. Fresh code, innovative drag-and-drop MIDI mapping and plug-in management, auto-configuration with PreSonus hardware, insanely good audio quality, unlimited tracks and plug-ins per track, and a powerful, inventive Start page that literally puts the whole project right in your hands are just a few of the compelling features of Studio One.After all, recording systems should serve the artist, not the other way around.How Studio One was Born (The Inside Story)We had a clear and simple goal: Wipe the slate clean and apply decades of collective software and hardware experience to bring the DAW back to the musician and producer. After two years of coding and testing by some of the world’s finest programmers, Studio One Artist and Studio One Pro are the result.Learn moreNew-Generation Audio Engine Under the HoodStudio One employs a unique, state-of-the-art audio engine that delivers incredibly clear, accurate sound. Studio One Pro features a 64-bit floating-point version of this audio engine that automatically switches between 64- and 32-bit operation on the fly to accommodate 32-bit plug-ins. This means you always get the highest possible sound quality and blazing speed. Studio One Artist features the same audio engine but always operates in 32-bit mode.Learn moreCompatible and Easy to ConfigureStudio One is compatible with any ASIO-, Windows Audio-, or CoreAudio-compliant audio interface, including, of course, the entire line of PreSonus interfaces. Learn moreInnovative Start PageFrom the moment you connect your PreSonus hardware and launch Studio One, it’s evident that this is a new and better way to record music.Learn moreEasy to NavigateOne click lands you on the Song page, a single, straightforward workspace that allows you to track, edit, and mix in one easy-to-navigate window. Learn moreCue Mix Built InAll PreSonus FireStudio-series audio interfaces include an internal software mixer that allows you to set up cue (monitor) mixes with zero latency. Manage these cue mixes from within Studio One, rather than using the external control panels normally required.Mixdown Made EasyThe advantages of an integrated music-production system built from the ground up continue when it’s time to mix. Studio One’s Console is available in the Song page at all times, but it can be separated and even dragged to a second monitor. Learn moreMastering (Studio One Pro)Several DAWs offer integrated mastering capabilities to varying degrees. Without that capability, you need a separate mastering application. But no other DAW offers a truly integrated mastering suite comparable to the Project page in Studio One Pro. Learn moreBut Wait, There’s Yet Even Still More…It’s obvious that Studio One keeps you out of a maze of nested windows and dialog boxes. And if you’re an experienced engineer or producer, you can already appreciate the attention to workflow, which will help you more efficiently make a record. Here are a few more things to consider:Control Link™ MIDI Mapping With “Focus”Studio One integrates with hardware controllers simply and easily. The usefulness of the coolest plug-in or instrument is, after all, greatly diminished if you can’t easily touch it with more than a mouse! We solved this problem once and for all.Learn moreNative Plug-Ins and MoreEven if you don’t own any plug-ins, we have you covered. If you do own plug-ins, you’ll want Studio One Pro, which supports the VST 2, VST 3, and AU plug-in formats, as well as ReWire.Learn moreComprehensive UndoLearn moreStudio One Artist and Studio One ProStudio One comes in two flavors to suit your specific needs. We understand that there are different ways of making music and different levels of involvement. Some of you are cruising in home studios, capturing your creative grooves on your own time and at your own pace. Others are working in a project or commercial studio, whether on the clock for paying clients or producing your own work for sale.Try It For FreeWe make bold claims about Studio One. And we put our code where our mouth is by offering you a free trial download. Try it and discover how easy creating music can be. Or visit your PreSonus dealer and ask for a full demo.Download the demoOkay, strap in and grease up your mouse. It’s the…The Complete Guided Tour of Studio OneWhat follows is a comprehensive overview of Studio One. If you click on all the links, it’s long, detailed, and not for the faint of heart. But we’ve broken it down into a lot of easy-to-digest subsections.Start PageLaunching Studio One always lands you on the Start page. Think of it as the base camp for everything you are working on. The Start page is also your portal to the support team behind Studio One.Learn moreSong PageWelcome to your new recording studio! Here’s where our new approach to graphic interfaces makes creating music so much easier for you.Layout and OrganizationBrowser and PoolRecording ControlsPower Buttons and Track ToolsTrack EditingLearn moreAudio and Instrument Track AutomationThe deep automation capabilities of Studio One won’t be apparent until you start mixing. But even during tracking you have a lot of useful options.Learn moreEffects Plug-insStudio One Pro ships with 25 64-bit Native Effects™ signal-processor plug-ins and one specialized plug-in (Pipeline). Studio One Artist ships with 20 32-bit plug-ins. Studio One Pro also supports VST 2.4, VST 3, AU, and ReWire. Neither version imposes limits on the number of plug-ins that can be used in a given Song. You’re limited only by your computer. [image]Learn moreInstrumentsStudio One also ships with four native virtual instruments.Learn moreMixingStudio One’s mixing capabilities are straightforward, intuitive, and easy to use. You can mix as many tracks and use as much processing as your computer CPU can handle. And Studio One’s powerful drag-and-drop features make it quick and easy to bring in new elements, effects, presets, and more.Finally… (like you really read this far)Many DAWs have made the claim of being revolutionary, groundbreaking, life-changing, etc. And some of them were. Then commercial evolution took hold, turning many of these fine products into bloatware. We felt we could do better. We combined our considerable experience as developers of audio-interface hardware with the expertise of a team of preeminent German DAW designers to create an engineering “dream team.” This team reevaluated the entire process of computer-based recording and considered how we could build a superior new application using fresh software code and the latest technologies. The result is Studio One.Whether you climb onboard with Studio One Artist or Studio One Pro, your experience of creating and recording music is about to improve dramatically. If you are new to recording, you’re starting in the right place because Studio One makes music production easier than you imagined possible, yet it doesn’t skimp on features. If you are switching from a hardware sequencer (say, in a keyboard workstation), get ready for more music-production power than you’ve ever experienced. If you are here because of dissatisfaction with your current DAW, get ready to feel springtime fresh! From mic input to main output, PreSonus Studio One is the culmination of decades of experience collected by real musicians, engineers, and whole bunch of really great customers and friends. And you are…Welcome!http://www.presonus.com/products/Softwa ... twareId=11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChevChelios Posted February 8, 2010 Author Share Posted February 8, 2010 I downloaded the demo of this yesterday.. a pretty neat little package for only 40 something mb.
