Notes: Create without boundaries.
Record, produce, compose, mix, master, and perform-all from a single, intuitive application. Only Studio Oner 5 provides integrated tools that take you from initial inspiration to mastered production, from full-length album to setlist on stage. The standard for end-to-end production, Studio One is the DAW that does it all.
Drag-and-drop everything.
Studio One pioneered the often-imitated drag-and-drop workflow that continues to be a guiding principle in Presonus' design philosophy. Audioloops, virtual instruments, plug-in effects, and even presets can all be dragged into your session from Studio One's innovative Browser. Copy FX Chains from one channel to another simply by dragging-and-dropping. Convert MIDI to audio or audio to MIDI using drag-and-drop. Upload and download files to and from your PreSonus Sphere Workspaces by drag-and-drop. Ease of use is at the heart of Studio One, so your mind stays focused on your inspiration.
Perfect harmony.
The only DAW with Harmonic Editing for both audio and MIDI, Studio Oner 5 offers Chord Track, a songwriter's dream come true. Create, audition, and change chord progressions and even have older parts follow a newer, better chord structure, thanks to the inspiration Harmonic Editing can provide. With version 5.3, you can now drag chords from the Chord Track to an Instrument Track to begin composing right away. Chord notes can even be extracted directly from audio by detecting chords and then dragging the audio event to an Instrument Track.
Inspiring plug-ins.
With a complete suite of effects plug-ins, Studio Oner 5 supercharges your mixing. These plug-ins are so good we've made a few available for use in any DAW by popular demand. From State Space Modeled guitar amps to lush reverbs and polyrhythmic delays, Studio One has all the plug-ins you need to mix and produce. Studio One Professional's unique Pipeline XT plug-in lets you use boutique and vintage analogue signal processors as easily as software plug-ins. Studio One's powerful Splitter plug-in lets you run multiple plug-ins in parallel on a single channel.
Analogue mixing with digital ease.
The proprietary Mix Engine FX plug-ins provide State Space Models of classic analogue consoles that can process your mix across channels on any bus, collectively. This isn't a stereo bus plug-in, this is multi-source processing that re-creates true analogue circuit behaviour like console input-gain saturation, analogue noise, and crosstalk-all painstakingly modelled component by component from real-world hardware.
Produce without limits.
Forget laborious transposition, cutting, pasting, and moving when arranging. Audition new arrangement ideas on the fly with a simple click of your mouse. Use Scratch Pads to test arrangements. The flexible Arranger Track makes moving sections of Songs as easy as moving Parts. Powerful comping tools make assembling a perfect take simple, efficient, and fun. A robust suite of tools ranging from transient detection to multiple slicing and time-stretching features makes editing multitrack drums blazingly fast. And with groundbreaking Harmonic Editing-the most flexible implementation ever-no other program can approach the ease of arranging and songwriting that Studio One 5 delivers.
Edit audio and MIDI- fast.
Clip Gain Envelopes let you polish performances or remove glitches with adding a plug-in to your effects chain. Convert audio to MIDI and MIDI to audio with a simple drag-and-drop for blazing fast sample replacement. Replace drum sounds with samples simply by dragging the source track to an Impact XT track. The combined Arrow and Range Tools boost your audio editing efficiency by merging the most frequently used tools into one. Select, move, split, or duplicate Events; trim start and end points of Events; adjust fades; and change the overall Event level in one seamless action.
A sound as unique as you.
Inspiring virtual instruments and unique Multi Instruments let you combine instruments to create your own unique library of sounds. You'll create beats faster than ever with Impact XT, our comprehensive rhythm-production environment. Build your own sampled instrument with Sample One XT. From polyphonic analogue to monophonic subtractive synthesis, Studio One has the sounds that make you want to create. Presence XT can be expanded with Add-on packs like Deep Flight One and PreSonus Studio Grand. Aux Channels let you easily use your hardware synths, drum machines, and groove boxes as part of your productions, so dust off that TX81Z or Portastudio and put them back to work! However you create, Studio One has a tool that makes the job easy.
