Everything New With Studio One 6 In Less Than 10 Minutes!

[@mikehancho7172]

coming to s6 from s3 professional and i cant believe how easy the workflow is now compared to what i've been working with for the last 8 years lol. i havent even thought twice about upgrading my DAW until i noticed sweetwater had a sale for s6. im excited to work on this DAW!

[@jennyhong6746]

I’m just learning studio one and have version 3 on my pc. Do you suggest I upgrade right away to 6 instead? I haven’t started yet. Thanks!

[@jennyhong6746]

Also, is there automation on both versions?

[@carlosp.1846]

It’s more a 5.6 than a 6, they should already have CLAP and AUv3 support, plus modulators instead of having to set an automation lane to modulate a parameter, all modern tools for production implemented by Live or Bitwig long ago.

[@johnhill762]

Yep. Feels like 5.6. Does not feel like a legitimate new version.

[@ONESOULFULMIND]

I just noticed I cannot find the pre count at the bottom it used to be next to the metronome icon which I don’t see as well. Does the pre count feature still exist on 6?

[@Ahn-Ree]

StudioOne has always gotten my vote with the main function being the drag and drop function

[@dp_recording8718]

Hey JM, I recently upgraded to v6 and have been watching YT vids trying to get my head around it. I'm delighted by your overview- you really helped me get the big picture. thx so much.

[@Mad-Slide-nf8xt]

Woah, great video mate!

[@ChannelForty2]

Great video man. Thank you for uploading this, super informative! I love studio one, it's the one that works for me to get out all the stuff I hear in my head. The workflow came really naturally for me. Love it!

[@anthonystahl]

Looks like they "rounded off" the look of the elements in the mix console as well. Some cool new features. Still on the fence about upgrading. May wait until 6.5, but i'm nor sure why LOL. Thanks for the video.

[@luisguzman6585]

One of the best explanation of new features out there Thanks!!!!

[@jeromeweaver809]

I am a Studio One user, and many features are helpful in my productions. I have almost all DAWs for windows, but I keep returning to Studio, where six of my albums have been made available on streaming services. I believe more features are coming soon, like adding CLAP (CLever Audio Plugin), as U-He, Bitwig, and many others, using open source format as a standard for developing their liberal licenses. CLAP is open source and released under the MIT license: No fees, memberships, or proprietary license agreements are required before developing or distributing a CLAP-capable host or plug-in, and the license never expires. In a nutshell, there are no entry hurdles for developers, and plenty of open source projects already benefit from CLAP. Be encourage.

[@TJ-rf1xl]

As someone familiar with Ableton and Logic this really looks like a hybrid of the two to me, like they had a lovechild or something! :D Definitely very tempted to grab a license, especially if I can get one on sale. A masterclass would be amazing!

[@enochsings]

S1, give me Dolby Atmos and I'll never run back to Nuendo 12 again. The dynamic eq and deesser I get from fabfilter and the likes. All these subtle upgrades are cool but won't cut it in this age. We need immersive mixing damnit!!!

[@rafaelhernandez5550]

So far this is the best compat video of the new Stuido one 6 update. Now 20 Years ahead of the industry standard (Pro Tools) Thanks

[@DariuszBlasi]

Can we can finaly access bus channel from inspector view or are there any changes in piano roll like actually highliting scales on a grid not just on the keys? All these additions seem nothing exciting really... It is already done in 3rd party vst that everybody is using. The only cool innovating feature is the lyrics track.

[@BinkyWomack]

Ive been using Studio one since version 2. I dig the dynamic eq. The lyric track is hard af to use. I click on the hook type the hook after that im lost theres quantize options. Presonus sphere I wish there was an option to download everything I dont have. Looking for random stuff sucks after you had it for a minute. An intergration in the mastering page with isotope 10 would be dope af

[@EasyHeat]

I just went from an intel i7 3770 PC to an intel i7 4770 iMac. Ultimately opted for Studio One Sphere ecosystem and OMG! It's incredible!

[@cycleproduction3527]

It looks like this update was created to invite new people, make DAW more user friendly and improve workflow for laptop users. Surround sound probably will drop at 6.3 or 6.5. Personally, I think good pitch-shifter instead of vocoder could be better. Overall, all features are great and will improve the workflow. I just wished that we would get more killer features. Hope to see them in future updates.

[@Johnmike]

I wholeheartedly agree! I really thought we would definitely see Dolby atmos support at the least…

[@99MUZIK]

The new CEO from fender made a statement a couple of months ago!! That a daw should be plain and simple with No Killer features!! It sounds to me that don’t expect studio one to have exclusive killer features in the near future.

[@Johnmike]

@@99MUZIK wow!

[@cycleproduction3527]

@@99MUZIK Yeah, I've read the interview. It's still to early to judge. In the software world changes are very slow. It usually take years from idea to quality implementation. I think we should wait for a Studio One 7 release to get full understanding of a bigger picture. I believe Dolby Atmos is on their list, they just want to make it in the right way. To make sure that mixing and mastering work correct in surround, to check rendering options, test how plugins work, CPU optimization. There's a lot of work. Compare it to Nuendo (1000 euro, for a minute))). It has video track, but you have to import only Full HD videos or it will appear stretched out. It's Nuendo 12 at it still don't have the option for vertical zoom with mouse scroll)) It's redicilous)

[@perrythomasmusic3709]

I agree, especially about a pitch shifter. I am more apt to use that over a vocoder any day.

[@JohnathanMonroe22583]

This update should be free

[@prodby430]

Totally agree

[@slowbrain8869]

Agreed

[@soundtreks]

It’s a great daw but the update was not super impressive for film composers except for the addition of the video track which is cool. I hope presonus adds custom click track features like Logic and Cubase have for subdividing 5/4, 7/8 type meters.

[@johnhill762]

Wasn’t impressive for anyone - especially film composers.

[@rubenj3128]

How's the remapping when you have a new computer in this version? Still that bad? I had to go trough every song, select the new drive for the samples and update the links. All my song had dead links and took a lot of time to remap everything..

[@talentohumano1859]

Is Upgrade No Update

[@bighornaudioproductions6104]

Thanks for the info can you use the fader flip on aux outputs?

[@holygeneration7]

ive been using Studio One 3 for about 5 years and let a friend of mine talk me into updating to Studio One 6....it all looks toyish now. For instance; in the mixer section the faders have "down scaled" to very short 'throws' !! Even if you stretch them it isnt the same and nowhere as nice looking as on Studio One 3. I am very disapointed in the compromise that Presonus has made and hope that they dont throw out the older and better looking version 3. With all of this customzation, you cant get it to look as good as Studio One 3. Ive dumped the newer version 6 and kept version 3.

[@marcusdwaynegonzalez5557]

That video editor is going to become a full fledged video editor Watch!

[@alirezabaghdadchi5020]

Thanks for your video! Did they fix the automating macro knob? :)

[@gitarman666]

Protools steps up with melodyne Ara and shortcuts/macros also reintroduces a free version and integrates Aux I/O streaming and more as a free update and studio one does very little as a full paid upgrade? I run both but something seems ass backwards with that

[@metalplatedfacejob]

Protools is charging you double the cost of this upgrade annually so it was hardly free. Ara support, lol they are literally the last DAW to adopt it. Short cuts/ macros is hardly something to brag about. This update is weak and underdeveloped for sure but Protools for last 10 years has been about the same, always behind everyone else on features and they have a def ear to their base. Lets hope that Presonus expands this update at 6.4 and redeems itself. True multichannel support would make this update worth it alone.

[@digitalsketchguy7844]

I think a couple more quality synths would be nice. Mai Tai is ageing...

[@trsfworld460]

The vocoder surprised me if that joint the real deal I'll never have to buy any kind of vocoder if I already have one built in studio one

[@moviekidtechlife]

I want studio one to do well also and have enjoyed it…but no surround mixing and so few key updates does make this a very iterative update at best unfortunately. It’s a shame as wanted so much more than subtle workflow adjustments

[@Johnmike]

that was a disappointment for me as well

[@moviekidtechlife]

[@sekritskworl-sekrit_studios]

If you "Insert Drumset", does it have to be "Impact"? I mean, can you customize it to use a Native Instruments drumset or IKmultimedia drums or something?

[@Johnmike]

I think this can be setup via track presets

[@sekritskworl-sekrit_studios]

@@Johnmike How is that done?

[@buckycore]

Yeah, it was almost anticlimactic in a way. But I love the fact there's a new dynamic EQ, and the lyric thing is dope AF. So, for linear recording projects, SO has always been Dope, and 6 just makes it a bit more dope. Plus...chord tracks. Just having a new announcement remind us that SO has a chord track over and over again would be worth watching a live stream for. Ha! . ( These days, I love Bitwig for nonlinear, crazy experimental stuff the most right now. But I could never leave SO...because...chord track 😂)

[@NakulKrishna]

I keep saying if bitwig and studio one had a perfect lovechild, it would be the master daw.

[@SebTheSaviour]

Hey, how about "backward compatibility"? Have you tried to do following: - does S1 v5 support files from S1v6? - does S1v6 support the same controllers as v5? Nice presentation, cheers!

[@Johnmike]

Not yet…will hopefully test that this week

[@gerardlanphear9185]

In addition to the lyrics, I would like to see chords able to be printed as well. Sometimes you want to print out a chart for a musician.

[@BinkyWomack]

You can do that in 5 and 6

[@deftond79]

Nice video my man

[@nujazzelectro]

Thanks for the review, i just wish they've added track or take versions like the ones you find in Cubase, Pro tools or logic , i think that's pretty useful also an updated score editor that is independent of notion for more serious editing and print out would have been nice and new instruments perhaps

[@artist1303]

My mixing templates that I created in Pro 5 didn't show up in the upgrade to Pro 6. Any tips on how to get them into Pro 6? Also once the upgrade from 5 to 6 is complete will it be OK to go into my C:// drive and delete all studio one pro 5 files to clean up some hard ware space?

@@gawel772 ya but when someone new to the DAW market is in search of one, these things matter.. It's like how much you get when you pay for.. This is the reason why still FL studio or logic ( in the same price range) takes away the cake for beginners.. Personally I want S1 to be @ the top, cause I think it is way ahead of any major DAW in terms of workflow and modern features..but for some one new they are still lured away by other daws and probably they are going to stick with them for the rest of their production journey.

Its not an upgrade its an update as Studio One continues to catch up on the rest of the DAWs available on the market. I am left scratching my head asking myself what new features I need and why and do I need to pay for them? There is one feature that I would think is CRITICAL thats surround and KZbin now offers it so Studio One should support and offer it to but it appears its something beyond the capabilities of their developers !! Sure I understand staff need to be paid and Fender need to increase their revenue streams but this "upgrade" does not justify the cost not even close. Studio One is a great learning tool for beginners but once you get past the initial learning curve its whats missing that makes you upgrade but not to Studio One but to another DAW !!
