New-Generation Audio Engine Under the Hood

Studio One Professional 2 employs a state-of-the-art audio engine that delivers incredibly clear, accurate sound. Studio One Professional 2 features a 64-bit floating-point version of this audio engine that automatically switches between 64- and 32-bit operation on the fly to accommodate 32-bit plug-ins. This means you always get the highest possible sound quality and blazing speed. 

Mixer Architecture

PreSonus Studio One provides you with a mixing console as complete and capable as any found in a commercial recording studio. There are no limits to the number of input channels, inserts, FX channels, subgroups, mix buses, and outputs you can employ. The only constraints are the number of hardware inputs and outputs in your audio interface and the limits of your computer system. 

There’s also no limit to the number of processors and effects that you can employ, up to the limits of your computer system. Just drag-and-drop! 

Celemony Melodyne 

Studio One Professional 2 includes a fully licensed copy of Melodyne Essential! Considered the most sought-after pitch-correction solution in the market, Melodyne has been the model for proprietary solutions in several DAWs. Studio One 2 seamlessly integrates Melodyne so tightly that, for practical purposes, Melodyne is simply a part of Studio One. 

Exchange

PreSonus Exchange is a community hub for sharing user-created content. All registered Studio One users have access and can upload to and download from the Exchange. Instrument and effects presets, FX Chains, Soundsets, and much more are easily shared, with user ratings and comments showing the way to the best content the community has to offer. 

Best of all, there’s no need to leave Studio One to visit the Exchange. Open the File Browser, click on the Exchange server, and all of the content is at your fingertips, with audio preview. When you find something great, just drag-and-drop, and Exchange automatically downloads the resources and loads them into your Song. 

Soundset Builder

All of the bundled content provided by PreSonus has come in the form of Sound Sets. Now, we are giving users a free tool to create their own Soundsets for distribution to all other registered users through the Exchange via an extension called Sound Set Builder. This extension is now available to all registered Studio One users for immediate download from the Exchange. 

With Sound Set Builder, any folder in the file browser can be made into a Studio One Sound Set, complete with a name, description, icon, and URL. This is an excellent way to create and share packages of content, including audio loops, MIDI loops, presets, and more. Sound Set Builder installs into Studio One quickly and easily by drag-and-drop. 

For practical purposes, Melodyne is simply a part of Studio One. With one click, your audio opens in the Editor with the familiar Melodyne interface and capabilities. Hear your Melodyne edits in context with the rest of the arrangement, and when finished editing, easily render the audio in place. Furthermore, edits made in the arrangement are seamlessly synced in Melodyne. 

Compatible and Easy to Configure

PreSonus Studio One Professional 2 is compatible with any ASIO-, Windows Audio-, or Core Audio-compliant audio interface, including, of course, the entire line of PreSonus interfaces. 

Studio One Professional 2 is packed with powerful professional editing features, including integrated Melodyne pitch correction, yet it lets you work quickly and easily, without wading through menus. Load and save audio clips, MIDI files, effects, and VIs by drag-and-drop. Import and export MP3s. Take advantage of multitrack comping, multitrack MIDI editing, and transient detection and editing with groove extraction. Import videos and create soundtracks. Use 31 bundled Native Effects plug-ins, third-party VST and AU plug-ins, and ReWire. Mix, master, burn CDs and DVDs, and upload to the Web, all within Studio One.
