What do these Event icons mean?!

[@citizenbloop]

This DAW is always surprising me with all those cool features. Good job guys and thanks Gregor!

[@DDWyss]

As happens so often, I click on one of Gregor's videos thinking "I'm not sure if I can use information on this topic", and I come away with tons of great information that I needed! I'll definitely be coming back to this video when I need to doublecheck anything about event icons. Thanks again, Gregor!

[@bovictorious2380]

6:03 I'm flabbergasted. I love how these gems are dropped so casually - meanwhile I'm like 🤯 - using the pen tool to draw in the scale is fantastic! Thank you so much for sharing your vast knowledge and creative ideas on how to use these tools, Gregor!

[@VCSInc]

Just answered every question i needed in one video. NOW i can REALLY get to work instead of bumblimg trying to figure it out. Thanks

[@b1j]

Event effect! Wow. I need this right now. Gregor, you frequently read my mind. Rock on, bro.

[@citizenworld8094]

If Studio One ever get professional Video features, it will probably be the best DAW on the market.

[@inkwarp]

Ok, I'm late to the pary, but... I have learned more in the last week than I could have imagined. I love the insouciance with which Gregor mentions the 'ladder of notes' at 5:37 :) Suddenly I find a great way to make arpeggios without have a separate plugin. The deeper I go into S1 the more satisfying and, quite frankly, exciting it is. Kudos.

[@creatio1]

Thanks Gregor, you are the MVP for Presonus! Your videos make live so much easier :) Keep up the good work, Tschuss

[@borisdancy9781]

Always on time! Thanks Gregor!

[@tristanishtar8906]

Always helpful content. Thank you. Every time I watch one of your videos I learn more features that are included in studio One that I had no idea existed.

[@Alchemetica]

Well no denying the fact that i certainly learnt new information with this video. Thanks Gregor another home run :)

[@tereza1969]

thank you for this video, finally my problem solved

[@FS4U-CH]

Always informative. straight to the point and presented by a nice guy... what else could we ask for? thumb up

[@petersvan7880]

Awesome video, thank you Gregor. It will take me some time to take in all this though! Another thing, these icon symbols are really very small, hardly see the difference between them with my old eyes :)

[@bovictorious2380]

4:56 😲 Gregor, you did it AGAIN! Thank you for surprising me yet another time with a feature that I now know I will come to employ again and again!

[@DavobarX]

Hey Gregor, I have an idea for S1. What about a library of curves you can drag n drop from the browser into an automation lane to then edit as you please? Would be great for workflow. You could easily create sidechain effects, variate LFOs throughout the whole song, add a smooth 80s style fadeout on the master-bus etc.. You could upload and share or download curves from other Users to add to your library.. What d'ya think?

[@michaeltablet8577]

Thank you so very much! I love these tutorials and you and Joe really do a great job teaching! I love Studio One!

[@Guitarist33764]

Another great video from Gregor. Thanks Gregor and thanks Presonus!

[@gmtt25]

Thanks Gregor for revealing "hidden secrets." I would like to create such drum stuffs (near the end of this video) using Atom SQ but I'm still new to Atom SQ. Eagerly waiting for your New Atom SQ tutorials.

[@effyiew7318]

This is a video that should have been made from day 1 when studio one was released. The chain one has haunted me forever and caused more problems than anything because the chain will prevent you from doing a lot of stuff to the event. Eventually after cursing at presonus nonstop I figured out that if you bounce the track, it gets rid of the chain and gives you back control of the event. There is barely any info in the manual about event icons.

[@ahmedyadam7240]

Yes indeed But why in the first place it comes when we create even an empty track audio or instrument one It appears directly in v4.5.1 Is there a way to disable it from automatically happening

[@MaduroMan]

@2:13 Have you seen this icon before? What icon? We can't see where your mouse is. It would be very helpful to have your arrow highlighted so its easy to see and follow.

[@michaelpal7641]

..Also...If you do practice "vocal thickening" by copying a single vocal track to a folder. and create 6, or 8 tracks, and then apply time stretch and/or tuning-you will get that little "gear" or "snowflake". Simply use the Command B on a Mac (don't know what it would be for PC)

[@ambientdave]

Awesome video Gregor. Only been using Studio One 5 since July last year.so much to learn and explore

[@KRMoore731]

Amazing!!! I learn something new everytime!!!

[@rickdeaguiar-musicreflecti7692]

Nicely done, Gregor. Your videos are so helpful and very much appreciated. You have a great way of presenting the content. Thank you, thank you, thank you :)

[@KnallKaeseRecords]

Lovely, I'm always learning something new.. Thanks Gregor and Thanks Studio One 👏👏👏👏👏👏

[@WE2019]

Very impressive.

[@4efam]

Very handy video. I'd like to see more about futures in the midi editor. Such this one you showed today.

[@KozmykJ]

Clear and concise as always Gregor. Thank you. I'm still looking for ways to apply the Mule Toot 😊

[@DisabilityExams]

Norman icons. Assigning three meanings to the same icon is simply user-unfriendly design.

[@beatkultr]

Good stuff here. Thanks

[@toddwmac]

New tips every time! Thanks.

[@onegusty]

Yep!!! Always an informative trip!!! Thank You Gregor!!!

[@aviationsband]

I have a bug where the snowflake is popping up, and the audio is playing back 2x slower than the performance. I don't have a tempo change near the event. It's the same sample rate as my entire project as well. What gives?

[@dulmin_]

Impressive as always 😍

[@CHOKSTARmusic]

For merged audio parts, we have the capability to create Ghost copies, great! But unlike Ghost copied of instrument parts, there is no way to separate ghost copies of merged audio events.

[@timmit65]

Great info Gregor!!

[@FrancoMaldonado96]

Por fin entendi qué era el famoso fantasmita jajaja (ghost icon). Gracias Gregor!

[@jurgenschuler8389]

Awesome! 👍

[@ariets]

4:50 to duplicate as a shared copy we need to use shift+d, not hold ctrl, it doesn't work. To duplicate we use D or hold alt. So why you said about ctrl, Gregor?

[@CHOKSTARmusic]

Because he is Right. Enable the 'Info View' and you will get it.

[@ariets]

@@CHOKSTARmusic tell me it's joke.

[@PresetsDiscovery]

Another mystery symbol that isn't talked about (8:04) is plainly displayed but not talked about directly. The PacMan Ghost symbol on the midi track labeled Mai Tai. I have this symbol on a track right now in a session, and the midi seems to be uneditable, and can not be moved around. Can you talk about what that symbol means?

[@monosbeats7398]

That audio parts could be edited in the edit view was new to me. Now i will use them alot more. 🥳 Tip for video: since that feature is only for the audio edit view. You could do a video about all the special functions of the edit view if there are more secrets like this.

[@jkalches]

Gregor, congrats to your great videos! :-) Well done! Wirklich super! LG aus Salzburg

[@friedhelmp.9217]

Danke Gregor, wieder was gelernt!

[@powerpopaholic876]

Very helpful. Thanks, Gregor !!

[@RiffMusic1970]

4:35. Is there a difference between merge and bounce?

[@kevincowen8655]

Gregor Rocks!

[@83RedRum]

Nice you guys give these info vids that's awesome

[@nielpatrickdandoy4130]

is there a "bind control" like in pro tools that you can mix example two guitar tracks using the same plugins being modified simultaneously? not on buss but on individual tracks :) TIA

[@craiganderton1422]

Very helpful...is this summarized anywhere in the Help?

[@michaelguse2467]

hey Gregor at first; again, a great video thx.... My question: if I want to use the "Ghost Icon" Copy in an Audio track, nothing happen... just in a midi track... Version 4.6

[@vb_gh]

The "Shared Copy" only works for audio parts that have been merged together.

[@michaelguse2467]

@@vb_gh the next question is: WHY.....?

[@vb_gh]

@@michaelguse2467 lol that's how they made it. I think you can put a feature request for them to implement the feature in a normal way I guess.

[@rickyguitarman3839]

have you made a video about Timestretch ? thx

[@thosedreadedgnats1511]

I don't see a solution about how to get rid of the chain link icon without bouncing to another track, which also bakes in any FX you might have on that track if you don't think to turn them off before bouncing. Is there another easier way to get rid of it? Figured that would've been addressed in this video!

[@tolga1975]

Thanks Gregor, I think Shift+D (Duplicate Shared) hot keys do not works on my events:) I have "Studio One Professional 5.1.2.62686"on macOs Mojave 10.14.6 When I use hot key combination (Shift D) for "Duplicate Shared" 1. Symbol do not change 2. do not sync with original event 3. hot keys: "D" Duplicate and "Shift+D" does it the same command. Just duplicate selected events like "D" I hope that we can find the answer. That's really time saver. Thanks!.

[@tolga1975]

Solution : When I use Hot key (G) "merge events" even one event, (Shift D) "Duplicate Shared"hot keys works!...

[@CHOKSTARmusic]

Duplicate share works for Instrument parts or patterns and Merged Audio parts only, and doesnot work on Audio event.

[@bansheezbansheez]

Hey do you do one to one tutoring, many thanks, Bansh.

[@chadyou812]

Me viewing this video: Wait! What! No way! Really. Oh that's cool. I didn't know that. Damn, that's cool. holy crap. What keys combo was that?

[@presonus]

Hahaha! So great to hear, thanks! -GBY

[@tgstk2]

wow that shared copy is a life saver !!! i do get a plus when using CTRL.. but not getting the ghost/pacman?

[@sickmoney1234]

Same

[@vb_gh]

The "Shared Copy" only works for audio parts that have been merged together.

[@caderik1386]

5:46 - how does Gregor gets the nice colors on the notes?? My notes have the same boring color

[@owenroberts1253]

There's an option to change note colour according to pitch. If you look when he draws the notes, it's a in a dropdown box just above the grid, in the middle of the menu bar.

[@pgpnation9575]

I want to know how to Pan midi notes on the piano roll in studio one

[@aminhaye2105]

I can't stretch the time of events that have the "string"-like symbol. How do I change this symbol to the wheel or snowflake?

[@ahmedyadam7240]

Ok, but why chain icon appears automatically when we create an empty audio or instrument track Since as u instructed, it appears with a track with many parts merged in it

[@TheTenderking]

Can you comp midi notes? Or os it just patterns and vocals?

[@keiljazz]

There's a mute tool? Wow. You'd think I'd have caught that. 🤔

[@monosbeats7398]

😂 isn't the first thing you do when you open a new daw to check the toolbar? I keep mute as my Ctrl function of the smart tool. Use it alot

[@erhanmusician]

How could you temporarily unchain the copied events for single event alteration?

[@jameshutchins7042]

Gregor how did u get those colors in the pattern part. The blue red etc.

[@noahbalmer]

Thanks for this info. There's one icon that isn't covered here. It looks like a quarter note with three rectangles next to it. It's on several events in the bundled "dance/techno" template. I've been trying to understand that template, and this is one question no one has an answer to. Does anyone here know? I'm using Artist v4.6.2, in case version matters.

[@presonus]

Thanks for bringing this up! That’s the chord follow icon, meaning that these notes are being currently being transposed by the Chord Track. -GBY

[@noahbalmer]

@@presonus Thanks! I think that the chord follow feature doesn't exist in Artist, but the template still shows the icon. I ended up deleting and recreating those events to get rid of it. It would be really helpful to have an "Icon Dictionary" on the presonus web site so we can look up unfamiliar icons visually.

[@edouardphilippe5271]

what about the bug icon showing in the pool ?

[@colaboytje]

I use Fabfilter plugins often, and sometimes instead of the on/off symbol being blue, it turns to green. Why is that and what does it mean?

[@PTFWWDB]

I can't lower the db gain with that chain icon and I can't get it off

[@GS-gk6nf]

Why is the ghost icon the only one you do not show how to disable?

[@markusriley]

Hi Gregor! I have a question about events. Whenever i´m mixing and i move an event my plug ins dont work anymore. I´ll be in mixing a track just fine and it sounds good but once i move the event i the plug ins lose their effect. I cant hear any difference to before i started mixing. I can still see the plug ins in the channel but i cant hear them. Does anyone know what im doing wrong?

[@ovspianist]

5:42 what kind of magic is that!

[@georgezorbas6422]

The snowflake appears when I change tempo. Also a CONSISTENT PROBLEM is when the snowflake appears because of tempo change, when I record guitars using 2 tracks at the same time, for some reason some times these 2 tracks lose their synchronization. Many times I record 2 tracks with one take for left and 2 tracks for right side. Also can you show us if there is a way to record in a lower sample rate to save space in ssd and export in higher sample rate for less aliasing??????

[@misterrathi8191]

Novation lounchkey 49 midi play, stop, record, and loop button not allowed studio one please any solution use this is studio one

[@robertocastrodelpozo7247]

I have tried several times this ghost copy. But it doesn't work. Any idea why? working on a Windows 10.

[@SleepyWalken]

What if I don’t want it to “share copy”??

[@michaelangell9535]

Did he address the lock symbol? How do I shut that off on patterns?

[@presonus]

Hi there, the Edit Lock Item on Events can be removed by right clicking and unticking "Edit Lock". If you're referring to the Ghost icon at the bottom left of Pattern Parts, those cannot be removed as all Pattern on a Track use the same assigned Variation(s). -GBY

[@rohanwalker2404]

cant afford sphere, so asking here, I've been asking presonus upgrades since version 3 to give us a method of looking at, listing,a and selecting presets for external midi synthsizers. there is no method that i can see. my loss is many thousands of sounds and 16 rackmount synths which i would LIKE to be able to use again, but are sadly out of reach in studio one five. this does not seem to be important to presonus, fair enough, but represents a teriffic ability and financial loss to my studio. can you please please help.

[@presonus]

Hi Rohan, we have a Program and Bank selector for external Synth presets directly built into the Track Inspector. I use this all the time for instant preset recall on my external instruments. -GBY

[@Guitarisforgrins]

Honestly, the fact that this question arises so frequently, Presonus needs to do a better job and making this information WAY MORE apparent.
