Getting to the details of a recorded track is just as easy as recording. There’s no need to dig into menus and dialog boxes or manage new windows. Everything is just one click away. And don’t be afraid to edit. Studio One supports multiple Undo, up to the limit of your computer’s RAM. And RAM is cheap!

Edit View

Clicking the Edit button in the lower right corner of the Song page opens a detailed view of either the first track or the currently selected track. (Double-clicking an event on a track does the same thing.)

A zoom slider on the bottom right lets you scale the audio waveform or Instrument-event view to suit the task at hand.

Scrolling and clicking on other tracks in the Song page switches between tracks. Only one track of a set of grouped tracks can be seen at a time, though edits can span all grouped tracks.

The Edit view has a timeline display at the top showing bars, samples, or time code, depending on your Song settings. Double-clicking the timeline starts playback of the Song from that point. Clicking again starts playback from that point—useful for sweating the details of a particular phrase or section. Double-clicking again stops playback.

Edit Multiple Instrument Tracks Simultaneously

With Studio One 2, you can view and edit more than one Instrument track at a time in the Music Editor, select multiple parts on different color-coded Tracks in the Arrangement and edit them together.


Multitrack Comping Done Right

Single and multitrack comping are quick and easy in Studio One—and faster than with most DAWs! No tool-switching is needed, and crossfading between takes is automated, although you can edit the fades. Auditioning takes is as simple as holding Alt and clicking on a take—no more manually soloing entire lanes, as in other DAWs.


Transient Detection, Editing, and Groove Extraction



Sure, you can do transient detection and editing in other DAWs—but it’s slow, and you often have to make a lot of decisions along the way. In Studio One, you can quantize multitrack drums in two steps: group the tracks, then quantize. Studio One does the analysis and phase-coherent quantization for you—with great-sounding results!Want to quantize audio to other existing audio? Drag-and-drop audio into the Groove panel, then quantize. Groove extraction is as simple as drag-and-drop; extract a groove from any audio and apply it to any other audio in seconds!
