[@stickman393]

Thanks for the video, Mike! At around 7:55, I think you missed saying that although the interface's input and output latency is still nice and low, the heavy hitter plugins themselves are adding PROCESSING latency which can't be solved by shaving off the input/output latency added by the audio interface driver. It all adds up of course!

[@studioonerevealed]

That's a great point, so I've pinned this:) Thank you.

[@CreateArtRecords]

@@studioonerevealed Thats the Reasen why i spend my Money for pure analog CUE Mixes (no Conversions, real NO Latency, e.g a oldscool Analog Mixer). I can still do the Source of the CUEs in the DAW. Maybe i am a Nerd, but i go one step further and use SO paralell with my Cubase on 2 different I/Os (RME UFx for Cubase and MultifaceII for SO). So i can drive SO at 32 S/B for realtime, and Cubase with a Large Projekt maybe on 2048 S/B as Composer/Mixer Software. With RME that works great! So, i dont have to use DualBufferSize in SO, cause i only use it for realtime-Application. Fact: StudioOne is a tick better then Cubase in Realtime Performance. Thats the Reasen.

[@DEMBEATSPRODUCTION]

Hey Mike, I can't begin to tell you how much I really appreciate your videos. There has to be a way to show you my gratitude for what you do for the music producer community.

[@stevemcnamara2584]

Thanks for taking the time to work through the options and showing real-world results. Plus your guitar playing is really nice and smooth.

[@teddybeargram3]

You are literally the Mr Roger's of studio recording. And I mean that in the most positive way. I have been watching your channel for a week now and have learned so much. Even though I knew a bit. The way you explain things. Your voice. How in depth you go. The examples you use. You are a gifted teacher. And I appreciate you

[@GoldToastTV]

Thank you so much. I love spending hundreds of dollars on a DAW only to not be able to play anything. Absolute life saver :)

[@glenq6233]

Thank you Mike! So clearly explained, very helpful. I can’t wait to set this up 👂🎶

[@ctdesigns111]

Mike, I play keyboards, I work with studio one 6.2. out of all the tutorials I watch and that's alot, your's are the most concise and understandable. You have taught me alot! I am not new to music but I am relatively new to studio one, You are my go to for all things studio one. Before that, I worked with bandlab for a while and watched you, then switched. Thank you for your great videos!!

[@PaschalisI]

you're the man. as always. happy to see you back healthy and everything

[@travisrichmond905]

Very thorough! This is exactly what I needed. Thanks so much

[@HenkvanHoek]

The best tip since using Studio One 12 years ago. Thanks!

[@KevinDean001]

Awesome! Thank you Mike!!

[@jotevezki993]

Thank you soo much! I've had those issues for quite a while. Absolute game changer. Perfect explanation. Thanks!

[@dougkoempel5304]

I'm 72-year-old music producer who built my studio in 1979. I started MIDI sequencing with Passport software in 1983 and moved to Cakewalk MIDI sequencing software in 1987. I stuck with Cakewalk through the years and up through Sonar-right up until the newer operating systems wouldn't support my version of Sonar anymore. Imagine my delight when I discovered Cakewalk by Bandlab. However, you've recently piqued my interest in PreSonus Studio One 6 via your glowing reviews. But I'm wondering if Studio One's notation editor is going to be a deal breaker for me. I do 50% of my MIDI editing using Cakewalk's staff view as it provides for a quick & robust workflow. What little I've seen online regarding the Studio One 6 notation editor suggests it to be a bloated, unwieldy interface-incapable of right-clicking individual note heads for quick pitch, duration and velocity tweaks. I think your tutorials are the best and would love to see an in depth discussion of the notation editor in Studio One 6.

[@peterjohnjoseph]

It absolutely has a staff view where you can right click each note. I don't know about bloated. I used to find it a bit lacking in regards to keyswitches, pitchnames, etc., although a lot has been updated. Still not Cubase levels, but that is meant more for composers working with large orchestral packs. I'd give the trial a try. Its honestly taking the best parts of every DAW.

[@MrProfGary]

Aha! No more buffer dancing, this is going to be SO handy, thanks for sharing this Mike.

[@markhotton6906]

EXCELLENT Mike. As I did with Calkwalk, I’m relying on your videos to help me get through the leaning curve for Studio One. Thanks! Awesome 👍

[@MichaelsPaintingChannel]

Bravo Michael, that was so profound. You've included everything from start to end which is important to know about it. Never knew about it.

[@stefankozovski]

Pro level channel! I've gone through all your videos for 2 days. Your work is much appreciated, Mike! Maybe consider a second option for donations as not everyone has PayPal these days.

[@chrisdunnettmusic]

This is AMAZING! I have been wanting Studio One to have a way to switch between a Tracking mode and Mix mode for this exact reason. Thank you for sharing this :)

[@tgstk2]

Honestly there are so many good s1 channels, but besides yours I always learn something new

[@joehermanartist]

Great video Mike. Your work is important and appreciated.

[@anishranjansarkar1969]

This was the exact video I needed........thanks

[@KevinGutierrez-dq9dh]

Thanks! This is the video that helped me make the most sense of how to fix latency. Well done!

[@moppo6861]

Very helpful, thanks! Beautiful guitar btw!

[@timroscher3723]

Thank you so much for making this video You solved a huge problem for me

[@darryldouglas6004]

Very good explanation. I learned something I didn’t know! 😃 I’ve been switching it on the settings between recording and mixing. Oh and the stock plugins are great.

Thank you!!!

[@eggsclusive12]

Great video Mike...thanks, solved a real problem for those that don't know about this

[@toddwmac]

Thanks Mike, great stuff as always. Loved your guitar playing sample. I have a similar Gretsch, but it never sounded as good as yours. :)

[@BabaGhanoushMusic]

What a life saving video, thank you!

[@Owl-qh2rh]

Great vid!!! Thank you 😇🙏🕊️👍

[@eshortsax]

I never knew...nor did I try to read manual to find out lol. Very helpful as usual 🙂

[@studioonerevealed]

:) Me too!

[@johnnygeibHST]

Awesome Technique. However, Just a heads up. Keeping Studio One's dropout Protection at MAX shuts off the ability to record VST Instruments to an Audio Track in real time. Always change it back to Minimum after using this process to keep other recording features active.

[@stringsnare]

love this thank you

[@lostenampazdelnorte]

thank you 👍👌‼️ just saved me lots of headaches

[@jimgraczyk6991]

Thank you so much!

[@kerazosreal]

You friggen helped.... Thanks man...

[@sgg6927]

Thanks Mike I never even noticed the Z . And if I did I wouldn't have known what its for. Now I do !

[@kisspoisonkisspoison]

Thanks, Mike! No more doubts

[@mmane257]

sir you just made me a subscriber to your channel.

[@leearmitage]

cheers I will give this a try out, hopefully will help out when I'm doing ampsim demos

[@johnsnyder4949]

Thanks!

[@frankieloveband]

Mike, My studio 68C interface had a monitor button so you could monitor through the interface and not the DAW. AND NOW- Mike you have got to pick up a NEW Quantum interface. I got the ES4 and No more latency - everything is done through the Universal Control for monitoring. The Quantum ES4 sound is amazing. Best wishes always my friend😃

[@flashkatwillie7657]

Thanks Mike this was very helpful👍

[@studioonerevealed]

My pleasure:)

[@faissalitani3607]

Thank You.

[@TheAmpFactoryTAF]

Be careful using this technique, as it does indeed do as mike suggests, but it will add a lot more processing to your CPU, (40%) more actually. if you check the performance meter at the bottom, its a useful insight to have on a minimal session, but if your wrting with lots of synths/plgins etc, then you will run out of juice! andlatency will be least of your worries!.

[@gilangpradika4327]

Thanks, sir!

[@odditeemusic6016]

This is the main thing that has bugged me about Studio One vs Cubase..I’ve tried all the fixes..thanks for the info!

[@jacobjack8542]

Thanks

[@Musikfryd]

tanks 👍

[@hr2186]

Man its amazing how well reaper is coded compared to these other daws.

[@dennismitchell5524]

Z? What? WOW! I missed that. Mistakes were made, shuffle, shuffle, shuffle. Great tips, made me pull out a Strat. FYI, LOVE that Gretsch, and hearing you play it.

[@Emily_M81]

alright, alright, I guess I'll sub. lol great video!

[@studioonerevealed]

Lol, thank you :)

[@marcpinion]

Fantastic work. you explain studio one better than Presonus

[@studioonerevealed]

Thank you! I appreciate you watching.

[@PaschalisI]

he def is, he made me switch from reaper back to studio one again. this guy is awesome

[@dpinskey]

Please! A follow up video would be fantastic!

[@ertan.demiralp]

11:39 Knopfler style, very well. :)

[@derdude8201]

Jeeeez why is everything just working perfectly fine on my system just like it is since installation? No latency no crackles!

[@robertsfarzo760]

Simply installing Focusrite drivers was what worked for me.

[@jeremiahlyleseditor437]

Great Tip Mike but do you have a work around for older versions of Studio one that do not have the processing tab just the devices tab?

[@themikeymaulerproject527]

Great stuff, Mike... now, I would love to hear how you can play guitar through Ampire and monitor just the processed sound, NOT including the sound of the clean guitar along with it.

[@tonystrignert]

Wow 💖💖

[@studioonerevealed]

:)

[@JahLightJeff]

Thank you Mike (or Mark K? ;) )

[@jeffcoleman4295]

Great job! Does this only work for the stock plug-ins or can I apply the Green Z to plug=ins such as Waves or Soundtoys?

[@martyfouts771]

One of the rare times I've been confused by one of your explanations: If you have processing dropout protection off or set low enough that the processing buffer size is the same as the recording buffer size (both 512 in my case) two things happen that I missed if you mentioned. 1) "Enable Low Latency Monitoring for Instruments" is disabled and the "Z" that indicates native low latency is available does not appear -- at least in 6.5 Otherwise excellent as usual.

[@b4time718]

Really great video Mike! This feature is pretty confusing to me. When you turned your plugins on output bus I thought the problem introduced would be clicks and pops due to processor not keeping up with the small block size. Instead you got latency. My head is still spinning! As was pointed out this is processor latency. Is that because they were time based effects?? Is the first note we hear the guitar dry and second the guitar wet (processed)? If you used non time based effect would result have been clicks and pops instead? Is low latency monitoring only effective with time based effects? And what about the mysterious BLUE Z?? Sorry. Way to many questions! I need to do some experimenting. Mike thanks so much for these videos. Joe and Gregor also produce informative videos but yours are the best tutorials for really explaining how the pieces fit together!

[@ChristopherJGould]

Fantastic tips there Mike. REALLY useful information. You have to wonder why Presonus themselves do not cover some of these features. I think Joe and Gregor (from Presonus) do a wonderful job. *But* they tend to cover the same topics over and over and sometimes you can hear the barrel being scraped. Studio one has some fantastic advanced features that never seem to get covered (other than here!). One example - did you know that (using the Studio one remote app) you can turn a tablet into a X/Y pad? I have lose count of how many virtual synths I have with an X/Y pad. It is almost impossible to automate such a thing, as well as being impossible to play the keys *and* use a mouse at the same time. A remote X/Y pad is the perfect solution - but Pesonus want to keep this a secret, or so it seems. This is just one example of some of the advanced features that would unlock the potential of Studio One. This video is another example - Presonus should be covering this - but I am sure glad you are around to do this work for them! They should hire you..... no, *really*. Once again, thanks so much for this and all your other S1 videos. Much kudos. 💗

[@chrishillery]

Joe did at least one video about this feature, but frankly it wasn't very clear and I'm not entirely sure even he completely understood the feature. This here is by far the best explanation I've found, and I hope it lets more people use this. It's (as far as I know anyway) a feature that is completely unique to Studio One, which is pretty darn rare in the DAW world, and Presonus really should make a bigger deal about it (and make it more obvious how to use it correctly!).

[@johnsnyder4949]

mike, ive been on the fence like an idiot for awhile. mostly working in pro tools because your not a pro if your not in pro tools lol. BUT after deep diving in your channel and watching some of the videos several times ive finally wised up and gone to s1 all the way. i own cubase, reaper, s1 , and pro tools but s1 most vertainly is the easieest, but most comprehensive. dont get me wrong all the others are cool but with the recent avid sale lol, and all the good points and knowledge youve been highlighting on your channel here its really become a no brainer. like i said the others are all great but why wouldnt you choose s1 ?? anyway as always thanks for the content, and honestly thanks for really focusing on some topics that really show how s1 can work and be productive from the beginner to the pro !!

[@earledaniels4539]

Hi Mike, if you are using Green Z mode, do all your active plugins remain active irrespective of whether you are recording or just playing back?

[@slavonmusic]

Hi! How to get rid of SENDS delay when monitoring?

[@marcpinion]

Its a shame you don't work for Presonus. I have a 32s and an NSB 32.16 and a lot of synths and drum machines pugged into the desk. I never use stock presets and make all my own sounds. I use the effects on the mixer as part of the sound and it sounds fantastic only problem is that when I record it even though I have the desk set to post it records dry. I have been on to support and they sent me their way of doing it ( Very over complicated but it still dose not work anyway )

[@ericmartin6727]

Hi Mike, I just subscribed to this new channel, I have been a Cakewalk user for years now and followed your channel regularly. I am thinking of trying out studio one, but I’m not sure which version is the best one. I am a solo, singer songwriter, who produces and mixes himself but only as a hobby. Wondering what you suggest. Thank you for all the great quality content!

[@ericmartin6727]

Thanks a lot, I will check it out.

[@b4time718]

Just to clarify. You can purchase and own the Professional version but the subscription adds notion and access to more Presonus plugins as well as some other perks. I own Professional. For my purposes I could prob get along fine with Artist. Once upon a time Artist did not allow use of non-Presonus vst plugins which is why I started with Professional.. Pretty sure that is no longer the case. If you start w Artist the upgrade to pro is pretty painless is the overall picture of dollars spent.

[@happyhamster1411]

I don’t have a Z below my master fader? I’m on windows btw

[@RamtinDidab]

Sometimes VST synths or Kontakt instruments start sounding so dull and low quality whenever this feature is enabled.

[@Ryanbeast-bx5xk]

i cant get my get my block size below 259 samples on windows audio any help?

[@norcalvirg]

Dude! you just saved my ass! Z button????????????? didn't even know it was there.

[@bigdaddy-fk5bi]

great video but you totally missed it. those of us will really good computers only want to hear the signal AFTER THE DAW. but we are stuck with both before and after which in really short latencies, creats a distant chorus or flange sound. HOW TO ME ONLY HEAR A POST DAAW MONITOR ???????

[@zachandtomdad]

The biggest problem I have noticed when using low latency green Z monitoring with instruments, is that the sound of the instrument and the volume of the instrument changes dramatically whether you have record monitoring enabled, or are just listening to the track you have recorded with record monitoring turned off. Not sure if there’s a workaround for this, any ideas?
