![]() ![]() ![]() Thankfully, there’s a new De-Esser plug-in too. I’m sure we’ve all tried to wrangle a daunting de-esser that was difficult to operate, and that we weren’t able to achieve satisfactory results with. It’s a bit like a multiband compressor, but in reverse - and it’s going to be everyone’s go-to EQ over a master buss. Simply put, you can adjust the EQ bands as per usual, but with a threshold setting on each band to control when the EQ will engage. With that said, users are still able to compose music or place voiceovers that are in sync with video, and can be exported in several popular codecs.Īlso of note is the Pro EQ3, which adds dynamic control to the EQ bands. Now there’s a dedicated video track that displays progressive thumbnails along the timeline, much like non-linear video editing software such as Sony’s Vegas.īasic editing functions such as cut, paste, and delete are possible, and you can import as many clips as you like onto the track, but PreSonus is quick to point out that it’s not a full-featured video editor. Studio One has supported video for some time, but this was only ever via a video player interface. A text file can be placed in the Global Lyric Track or Melody Track Lyric Lane, and this feature can make locating lyric reference markers in the song a breeze.Īnother of the more significant additions in this release is the introduction of Video Track. They can be displayed in a window with a bouncing-ball cue for vocalists to follow, or they can sit linearly within a track, displaying in sync with the song. Speaking of the Lyrics Track, this new feature is not merely words on the screen. With the exception of the rather clever Lyrics Track, the developers of this release have taken the refreshing approach of making innovative improvements to many of the DAW’s existing features, rather than trying to convince users that they’ve re-invented the DAW wheel. Now Sphere is the flagship of PreSonus’ software range, and with good reason, but more on this later. Sphere was launched with v5, but had an underlying sense of PreSonus trying to gauge the reaction of the fanbase to fine-tune how Sphere might actually work. To me, this release represents PreSonus putting its full weight behind Sphere, the subscription model of Studio One. ![]() Gaining popularity with each new version, the release of PreSonus’ Studio One 6 marks some interesting waypoints in the evolution of the DAW. However, as version 6 actually offers some impressive improvements I can confidently report that the sky didn’t fall, and that the good ship PreSonus is sailing on safely without a penguin in sight - let alone any icebergs. After the demise of another popular DAW (Cakewalk - Ed.) following its purchase by a well-known guitar manufacturer (Gibson - Ed.), users were worried that a similar fate might be in store for Studio One when PreSonus was acquired by Fender back in 2021 - and with this being the first major update since then these apprehensions seem quite understandable. ![]()
