What do you like best about Studio One?

Fast and intuitive editing tools. Accurate timestretch algorithms. Clean and organized Layouts. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Studio One?

I'm a big sampler user, and both Sample One and Impact fail to meet my purposes. So I have to use third party plugins. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Studio One Review"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Studio One?

I feel like Studio One has taken the best bits from multiple DAW's and blended them together. It is an easy to use, intuitive software that has most options laid out in front of you. For example, setting up new busses and aux fx channels is so simple, it has dramatically increased my workflow. I come from a Pro Tools background and I have noticed an increase of speed through to completion of a project. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Studio One?

I have noticed occasional bugs in the software. Sometimes depending if you are working completely in the box, I have to be a little more smart with insert choices as my cpu seems to run out quicker than on other DAW's. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Post processing wise, it is hard to visually gauge the before and after effects on the audio signal."
2.5/5
What do you like best about Studio One?

The sound samples in the library. There are ample of voices to select from. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Studio One?

Post processing wise, it is hard to visually gauge the before and after effects on the audio signal. I have to completely rely on ear training and had to replay the parts many times. Also, there is no easy tool to detect noise profile. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"A Great Option"
5/5
What do you like best about Studio One?

I feel it's intuitive, has all the effects I need, functions well with few bugs, and makes the workflow more pleasant. Also, it has a separate mastering station, which is just awesome! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Studio One?

The saving functions are a bit confusing. There are different types of saves, and you should learn how they each work. One setting will not actually add recorded material to a file. I've lost important work once because of this confusion.

Sometimes when I update it, my MIDI files change and required fixing. Not sure why, maybe it's just me, but I'm afraid to update now. I haven't investigated this or checked to see if this bug has been fixed, though. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great Software, First Software I used to record music!"
5/5
What do you like best about Studio One?

Easy to record, have enough mods for creating the right environment while making music. Different variations can be applied with software integrations like Arturia. There are plenty of options for distortion, reverb, delay and more audio editing and producing guitar music. There are custom pedal boards we can use and also customize one of our own for getting the perfect tone for our songs. There are some inbuilt drum loops and an easily programmable tool to to make your own drum loop with all the sounds. Overall, it is very exciting to use and incredible output as well when it syncs. We have sound modifiers for better quality as well for the overall output but if you are a pro you are going to need some other filters as well to go along with it for heavier sounds. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Studio One?

Sometimes you do not get the quality you would expect from your music. While recording heavy metal you get a lot of noise in the background which is hard to get rid of. The best way is to create or choose the right pedal board setting and set the pedals according to the tone and pace of the music. The overall audio quality of the recording also degrades slightly after extracting the file in the desired format. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
