[@LovensSylfroid123]

Yes sir ‼️please make a whole series of of STUDIO ONE💯

[@theblazedbro]

Agreed. Love it

[@ThaRealWillowBeatz]

He knows the basics but he’s not the best go to guy for S1. Don’t use those ProTools commands they’re longer and more complicated. Like adding a Track shift command N... why!!!! Studio One command is one key “T” for track and the box pops up. Simple you can’t forget T for track. And he never talked about the input control for the beat track to gain stage without moving the fader.

[@dwaynekendrick_]

@@ThaRealWillowBeatz so true how do you gain stage without moving the fader. I'm currently stuck. thanks

[@ThaRealWillowBeatz]

Dwayne Kendrick_ in the mixer options you click the box that says input control and that will put a line level at the top of every track on the mixer.

[@maheshnalindadayarathna3286]

please create video step by step all process

[@JenIsSpytheNight]

As a former teacher, I SO appreciate your style of giving full background, etc, and your friendly presentation. This is so helpful. Thank you!

[@eskaessencemusic935]

Very helpful thank you wavy

[@youngcarter765]

On turning the beat down (or any sounds input level): You turned it down by lowering the Post-Fader, so the input level stays the same before any effects, compressors, EQ's, etc. If you click the wrench and check the "Input Controls" option a knob appears at the top of the tracks. It lowers the volume pre-amp before being sent to any effects. It doesn't matter if you don't intend to place any inserts on the track, but I thought it'd still be good information for people. Love the channel man!

[@Pescasaurus]

nice, thanks for the heads up

[@gitarman666]

Yeah, it’s Gain Staging 101, using the trim pots!! also right click on the fader just to the right of the values and select “pre fader metering” this can stay on along with your regular scale choice {peak, peak/rms} [[[protools offers many more}]]] so you can see both when monitoring or just see pre fader when muted for visual gain staging, You can also choose to leave on peak hold and choose a display duration if you are as anal as me, lol

[@Kurovespertine]

I’ve searched far and wide for beginner videos and honestly I think this is the best one. You break everything down clearly and slowly. By the end of the video I couldn’t believe it was done already lol was enjoying it that much. Keep it up!

[@johnengland2996]

Love your energy, humor, and willingness to break it down, for us newbies!

[@chriscanoga]

Absolutely incredible tutorial, you are fantastic at explaining things and keeping the flow of the video going. Watching this makes me feel more confident in recording some new music. Thank you for the tutorial!

[@MirandaMulkey]

This helped so much!!! One of the best ones I watched! You're a great teacher and I can tell you love it! Thanks! :D

[@chris8651]

Wayne youre making quarantine so easy!!! Thanks for the videos man

[@cplwkong]

This is great. You have great way of teaching and it got me going quickly on Studio 1. Thank you!

[@keciab]

Love your humor and your teaching style! Thanks for breaking it down!

[@nicolenoble4037]

This tutorial is super helpful! Thank you so much for succinctly providing understandable information.

[@tashacope4663]

Thank you for this video! I've had studio one for a while but I'm used to Logic Pro so was terrified to use studio one cause it seems so different. You break down everything in a really good way by explaining what things mean as well as what to do and that's so useful to a newbie like myself. Thank you! You got a subscriber

[@skywolf1036]

Super helpful and informative! Ive been producing on my phone for 5 years and this was a big step up and seemed hard to swallow! looking forward to seeing more!

[@trunzika]

This video was super helpful!! Can't wait to see more Studio One tutorials!

[@thisisalbe]

aye bro i rock with your energy. always good seeing a brother out here handling his biz. new sub.

[@christopherforry4192]

You know, I've known what latency is and how to avoid it, but listening to you just now unlocked a new understanding of how to work around it. Thanks!

[@cheesbox5415]

thank you for your help! Plus I love you vibe and charisma!

[@robertcaputo1430]

Very well done! Clear and easy to follow! Fantastic job!

[@euniceshaiza9358]

Thank you very much for helping us, and u luk so humble and kind wen u smile

[@tylersmidt3641]

[@anirudh3083]

[@225maine]

There's videos out already and they're straight forward.

[@225maine]

@Juan BigPapiJT Torres oh ok i see..congrats fam,I've been using studio one since 2011....get the producer or pro version..artist is cool though. It's a nice program

[@PrOzZLoOnY]

@@225maine in the artist edition can you record a mix vocals no problem?

[@225maine]

@@PrOzZLoOnY yes you can...you just don't have the mastering page and a few other things.

[@matthewk970]

This is SO good. "The more ya know...!" Awesome and thanks

[@InfamousTheKidd]

Please continue this and focus on Studio One. This would help out so many artists and engineers 🙏

[@bisolaimam1173]

This is brilliant. Finally Studio One makes sense!!! 😀 Thank you so much for the video

[@mykilallen7145]

Thank you so much brother ! I’m about to be recording ridiculous now. Now I’m on my way to watching your mixing videos! Shoutout from Sammysono, one love

[@MrS7vans]

Very helpful, thanks for breaking it down and taking the time to explain the why’s and how’s.

[@operasinger2126]

W. Wayne, you are one smart dude. Thanks for taking the time to make this video.

[@alottaguala9766]

Banger of a video, informative and still charismatic/enjoyable to listen too just got into mixing so I very much appreciate you going over the prerequisite stuff as well because its suprisingly hard to find a comprehensive beginner guide that isn't dry as dust, earned my sub and thankye kindy

This is exactly what i needed. I've watched countless videos and they were either too much info at once or were not showing me what i was looking for to just record some vocals. Thanks for this video! Easy to follow and understand. One thing i didn't get was how u added a beat. U did it so fast and i do not have a mac.

[@thevisionaryassassin4352]

Click track at the top, and then add the MP3 directly, or WAV file, whatever you're using.

Great instructional video. Love it. I dig your sense of humor. I really liked how you explained the Buffer, Samples, Bits and everything else. That was my favorite part of the video because I have never had that explained before. I just bought a Presonus interface with Studio One software and I really appreciate your video. I have been a Protools guy for years and I am excited that Studio One seems as intuitive as Protools. And I need to learn how to import my Protools settings into Studio One.
