Version 6 pro, or any of the Studio One previous version? GarageBand is pretty freaking simple, even for recording accustic drums

[@beardym]

@@kiddynamite3931 I have been using fl and bandlab until now when I discovered Stuido one and it has a lot of things built in and way more easier to understand.

[@kiddynamite3931]

@@beardym I've had 5, and just picked up 6 pro. I purchased 5, but it probably wasn't the best method to get started with DAW's? GB is incredibly easy, but there are lots of limitations. I play drums, and I haven't had many good recordings. I cut back from 8 mics to 4, and that's been a huge help. I think I'm finally on my way. I'm glad you are liking S1. I'm looking foward to putting out pro sounding tracks. Even if it takes a few

[@beardym]

@@kiddynamite3931 As I said I also used GarageBand and it was very easy to learn and nice but the soundlibrary limitations and effects you can reach is limited in one point thats why when I tested studio one it was may more easier and has larger libs that some other daws. You tell the truth, main thing is the music quality, not the daw u used.

[@AshleyKampta2]

@@kiddynamite3931 Regarding drum recordings, I wouldn't even use 4 mics to begin with. Just use 2. A stereo pair of overhead mics. 90% of good drum recordings are in the sound of the overhead mics. Once you get a good sound from the overheads, then you can add two more mics, either as a stereo pair for the room (if you want to capture the room), or one mic each for kick and snare (if you want to capture a close-mic recording instead). Thinking more in terms of overhead and room forces you to think about general aspects of drum sound such as overall kit tuning and room treatment, rather than focusing too heavily on the details of mic placement on individual drums. The best sounds always come from a macro-focus on the entire kit first, then dial down to the details when you have the "big picture" sound where you want it. Hope this helps!

great tutorial

[@louisg3598]

It would be really helpful to add a portion for how to drag and drop and expand drum/percussion loops to use as a groove/click track as part of starting a new song recording/project. This would be really helpful for songwriters who need that first, then can begin tracking guide vocals and piano/guitars as an initial framework. Being able to make a template to actually start with a loop track, along with a vocal guide track and key and/or guitar track would be a great tip!

hi, useful introduction, thank you. On the timeline if I want to insert a loop as an introduction, do I have to manually move all the tracks to the right to make room? Is there a way to 'insert' the loop so the app automatically shuffles everything to the right?

My Studio one 6 doesn't have the music notations tab in the midi section,. Is there a reason for this?

[@StamandCreations]

Bought the perpetual license for Studio One 6 several months ago and have never been able to get the play button to work. The bar that moves across the track as it plays doesn't move at all and I have no idea why. There is no preferences option underneath the Studio One dropdown menu tab at the top of the screen. I'm growing frustrated of not being able to figure out what's wrong. Can someone help me??

[@nikayyla]

i found a fix! go into the options and change the audio device from whatever to windows devices. it will switch ur output audio and let you play it!

[@FynnFTW]

ive heard from other Musicians that the workflow of StudioOne and Mixcraft is very simliar. I started out with mixcraft cause it was on humble bundle once. And i like it but it lacks propper Midi Controller and VST3 support. Even the new Version. And it cant handle too complex stuff without laggin out. What ive seen here is very simliar. Can anyone tell me how there transition from Mixcraft to StudioOne (if any even had it) ?

[@JayB-XS]

This looks very similar to Cubase - I'm thinking of switching from Cubase due to instability issues and constant errors (despite only 10% of my CPU being used and 20% of RAM being used on a big project). In other words, I have lots of juice in the tank on my machine yet Cubase seems to constantly stall when loading big tracks, usually has to be booted twice and 'serious error' notices out of nowhere. It loves to disconnect the midi controller too. Can anyone confirm if Studio One has better stability for powerful gaming PCs?

[@nads5907]

It's stable.

[@LeonThomasian]

Cubase crashes on both my computers constantly… it’s so frustrating. I’m always in touch with support and they are helpful, but I may have to resort to going back to studio one

[@nads5907]

@@LeonThomasian How do you feel about having Cubase on top of Studio One? Is it worth having both? Cubase is on sale at the mo, and I'm wondering if it might be worth be adding it as a second DAW.

[@LeonThomasian]

@@nads5907 I actually purchased two permanent licenses from Cubase for multiple computers, so I’m never deleting it cuz there are lots of projects I have saved in Cubase that I constantly go back to and make revisions, but I started Sphere membership with Studio One which is $165/year and they keep adding amazing features in there which go really well with my line of work.

[@ArthurKlisiewicz]

I am ableton LIVE user for about 15 years. I feel very comfortable with that DAW. I have to say one thing. STUDIO ONE IS SUPER, SUPER HARD TO LEARN ! After trying for 6+ months I am still very, unproductive and get stuck every single time I try to do something. It seems like I would need a 100 years to learn it ! I do not know whether is it to many features, to complex concept, to cluttered interface, to many macros, to many icons,... I really do not know exactly what makes it so hard, Perhaps my Ableton Live habits... I REALLY WANTED TO LIKE THIS SOFTWARE but after trying for so many months I am becoming more and more discouraged by the suuuuper slow progress and no resource other than Forum posts to get some help. How many messages one can however post a day ? THE PROBLEM IS THAT THERE IS PLENTY OF TUTORIALS ON HOW TO DO THINGS. There are no tutorials or any help how to do, or what to do when one gets stuck !!! I ended up many times when something that supposed to work suddenly stopped, something got messed up and I had no idea how to fix it etc. I could only start from scratch (and be so unhappy to waste time again,...). Perhaps for those who use this software for 10+ years it is a second nature but the perspective of learning this software for another 20 years is daunting ! For NEW COMERS - there is something missing in this program ! CERTAINLY IS.

[@guitargod6997]

I have used Presonus Studio One for nearly three years. My experience is frustration at the lack of simple tutorials and intuitive explanations of functions. Not thrilled by the experience.

Hey I'm new this whole software. And I got some questions; How do you produce on this? How do I connect all My MIDI Controllers to this? I watched all the tutorials and copied everything you monkeys did and didn't even have the same results. Forgive my irritation I just need more help trying to get How this software works.

[@verifiedcustomerid8046]

So after months of testing, reading articles and so on, I can confirm Studio One still has serious midi jitter issues. What you play is not really what is being recorded.I've run many tests, with other audio interfaces, DAWs, computers, equipment, versions of Studio One. I have even done some clean windows installations, but nothing seems to fix it, so I can only say that Studio One is at fault. I have played drums and piano parts, arps and sequencer and the Atom, but no matter what you do, the MIDI notes ALWAYS have MIDI jitter. Some notes are recorded perfectly (a few of them actually), some ohters have midi jitter, placed here and there in a confusing way.I have gone through many tests with collaborators, even programmers and technicians (we even changed settings in the BIOS, system drivers..) but we were not able to fix it for good. There is no solution to this problem. Presonus Studio is a CRAPPY Midi DAW, terrible.

[@profyle766]

Still Sounds like some sort of soundcard issue that your having, are you saying you can play without any jitters in other DAW's but NOT in studio One? possible latency issues which you would have to go into the settings of the DAW, also i would check the windows audio settings, but you probably would have checked that already.

[@tjmitch57]

Seems like you only respond to complements of how great the video is and NOT the basic question of how do you set up a click track to get started.To most musian who want to use this software that is the A number 1 question. Also how to hook up and use external midi keyboard. As someone who can play in time and lay down tracks that wouldn't need mush editing except for plugins in the bus tracks I don't really care about anything more involved until I get started with that.
