you

hi this is Russ from Studio an expert and I want to give you an overview of

the new features in Studio One for now over the coming days and weeks we'll be

doing some more in-depth tutorials showing you how to get the best from

Street e14 this is simply a Show and Tell is showing you the new features

give you a rough overview of them we won't go into much detail but it gives

you a kind of bird's-eye view of what to expect from studio and for and whether you want to consider upgrading or coming

from a different door to studio one that has features that you were waiting for

so I'm gonna go in in order and the first thing I want to talk about is the

arranging and editing features that have changed now the first big one is this

now a chord track built in and what core track enables you to do is both identify

and then manipulate the chords and the harmonics of either an instrument track

or MIDI for those who are not used to studio one or an audio track and it's

built in on the timeline and you can see here at the top here we've got this

chord track showing but at the moment it's off and we can do one of two things can identify it from either the audio

here I'll just play you that [Music]

well here's the base here so one our identified cords I'd probably start with

the audio of the piano because that's got chord structure and that's just single notes so right mouse click and

you could detect chords and as you can see very quickly the chords are now

showing here then what we can do we can then go here and we go to the audio and

we go extract a chord track and now the chords are showing up here in the chord

track so now we've got a core trap let's that it could be as simple as that you

could just have simply a chord track and then you can have called tracks switched

on and we can then apply the chord track to any or all of the things obviously I

wouldn't apply it to the drums so what I can then do is come into here follow

chords turn that on and there's a special base setting there and here I've

got one and I can turn that on as well follow chords I'm gonna choose Universal

for audio and what I can do that is if I double click on here I can bring up my

chord selector and I could say okay one that's a B G minor instead of b-flat so

as you can see it's very powerful and very good for if you're writing a song

then you want to try different things we could say okay I did once I DuPont G

minor I want to go back to b-flat or I could make that take that from the

minor to the major so it's very powerful way of being able to manipulate your

song in different ways so that's core track so it gives you automatic chord

detection you can apply it to other tracks as well so that's the first

really cool feature and the second cool feature is now there's a ra to support

which for those who use a ra devices which is melody n-- then that's built-in

as well so the other feature I want to talk about now is it's a feature if

you've come for things like Pro Tools is ripple editing so I've got this song and

I've already chopped it into pieces so there's the intro

and here comes the verse guess I'll never get to see you and then here's the

chorus and there's the bridge and here's the mid-late or break down now without

replenishing what would happen let's say I wanted to move this which is the

chorus further down the song well in with no replenishing then what would

happen if I move that down the song it would simply come and go there and give

give me a big gap now what ripple editing does is really cool because what

it does is when I switch ripple editing on if I picked up for example the chorus

here and bring it down there everything moves up so very quickly I can try

different ideas out for the song so I could come here instead and think well

actually I don't I want to start with that kind of riff

[Music] I don't want that guitar intro anymore

so that's all moved down as I delete it and if I then duplicate it it will move everything up to go with it

[Music] ever get to see then what I want to do

is pick this up here and pick this audio up here drag it across there hit the X

key and then I could honestly I'm rushing it for the for the whole video

but normally you get the point now without ripple editing that was quite a

complex task that will work around you could use the arranger mode and stuff

like that but this is a massive editing shortcut as I say when it's on you can

move songs about so fast I can pick this up and bring it now to get a song here

instead lose this intro and again turn ripple editing off as you can see

arranging tracks is much faster or doing any kind of edit where things are moving around so ripple editing is the other

feature there's relative VAR offset for songs and there's removed gaps for

events now the next change for studio on version 4 is impact XT this is impact on

steroids it gives you a completely new look it's got eight pad banks and the

way you get those pad banks in terms of the MIDI control is it basically

scatters them across the whole keyboard sir a is from the first C up to the the

next highest D sharp and it just keeps going up and up and up the keyboard if

you want to work like that so eight pad banks easily accessible and then the

next thing is that you have 32 outputs now sixteen stereo and sixteen mono you

can now color code your pads as well sort of very like machinae and then you have a news 24 DB 0 delay feedback

filter you also now have filter dry them punch controls you've got soft clipping

mode you can edit pads in quite a lot of detail now and I won't show you in too

much detail today there'll be a separate video for that but it gives you lots of

padded editing things like one shot loop if you put loops on a pad you can mix

loops with a single shot and then you can tie them to the the

tempo of the track and use time stretch to make sure they stay in time of the

rest of the track following the song tempo you can trigger quantization now

you can got 32 sample choke groups but what I wanted to show you was two or

three really cool things in this and then we'll move on to the next and new

feature in June you want 4 so what I wanted to show you some really cool

import features so let's get ourselves a clean window and what I'm gonna do first

is bring in a pile of samples so I've got this jazz drum kit here I'm gonna

grab all of these samples each one of them and I'm gonna drag them ear over on

top of the first pad now if I press shift then and let go it Stan it's then

across the pads which is really useful very useful but of course is to say

using the thing I just mentioned I can press command shift and very quickly I

can move everything around and rebuild that kit and get it into the into the

setup I want so there we go and then we can do all sorts of editing so that's

stacking a load of samples across different pads now the other cool

feature as well is you can also then take a beat I've got a break beat here this pick that up I've got two options I

can bring it in and drop it on whole pad

or I can press shift as I drop it on the pads and that will then mean that I can

just pick it up drag it on the first pad press shift and it'll spread and then

edit those separately so I've got that across the keyboard now

very very cool indeed so that's impact XT and there's tons and

tons and tons of other features as well now sample one has had a major refresh

as well as you can see it looks different again it has a number of cool

features it's got its own record page now so you can record live into it but

you can also map things into as well so I can take a subgroup or a send or a bus or edit or an instrument output and I

can record directly from that within Studio One

it's got massive features for for putting samples into it so again we

could just pick something up from the timeline like this we could just pick it

up and drag it in now that's I'm one key at the moment as you could see there so what we could do instead is I could go

to this and pick it up again pick it up and drop it and press the shift key and

it'll slice it instead and now got it across then we can go in there the

examples if we wanted to and do all sorts of really cool things with the samples as well it's got a mapping

options we can map it across the keyboard so it's an instant sampler if

you want it and you can use to move those samples around you can put it

across a number of keys like that you could change the envelopes on each stuff

as well again we're not gonna get in too much detail but this is a powerhouse now

so for example if you had a backing vocal part that you just wanted to spin

into the track and keep repeating that you could drag and drop it into this or

record it directly into this father record option and you have a very

powerful sampling powerhouse and of course as well there's a whole lot of

effects built in as well modulation delay reverb distortion iki is even a

gaiter built-in so it's really really powerful as a basic sampler it's it's

taken sample one right up at level the next cool thing is there's now a

dramatic built-in so not only do we have the piano roll option we also have a

drum editor option if you want to work like that

now where it really starts to get very cool this is my favorite feature hands down it's the pattern feature and the

way to explain patterns is basically it's like having a 909 or a toe

in the timeline it makes creation of drums really straightforward and some

really really cool features built into this so if I build a new pattern I've

got two e here already so I'm going to come up here and I'm gonna create a new

pattern here and as you can see there's some really cool things so I could put

four on the floor like that now what's very cool is if you're an old user of

Sealab and things like that then there's a feature I've wanted for so long if I

just want to do fall on the floor with that kick drum I can just make it it's

playing for on the floor it's only playing four beats in the bar and then it's looping around the rest so I can

have so for example I've got four there I kept it in the hi-hat 16 I'm just

going to draw in so the Hyatts are looping around 16

but the kicks looping around on 4 and then the snare we could put that on 8

[Music] now it gets really good is there's a

couple of things that are really nice the first one is probability so for

example what you often do to make things sound quite as I say quite humanize it a bit you could put in the velocity of

course which is what a lot of people do for what can do now is probability as

well and what that basically means is that if you do this and I've spent some

time on this spend some time building the probability up you can almost have

drum parts that never repeat twice then the next cool thing is the repeat option

I love repeat so what we can do is just put some repeats in

[Music] get it really glitchy if you want now

see that says five so it's doing if I don't want that much then what I can do is just bring down that probability

right down there's a 40% chance of that playing there it was that time so you

get the point it's just super super powerful and you do all sorts of stuff

you could make that nine if you wanted to this is the snares dropping in all

sorts of places we could put swing in [Music] now the great thing is because it's a

pattern then all you do is just drag it out to get more of it or take it smaller

so it's very very very cool really good for building up drum parts and then if

you've got a pattern let's say this one now that could be your verse pattern

then we just do a duplication of it and variation too and there it is and you

can see here it says variation to there now so go back up to variation one I say

there and I could copy this across to there there's variation too and very

quickly we can build up some really powerful songs so that's now gonna make

that variation one a new variation - we might do some really cool stuff on the

kick drum [Music]

socially good seeds SS hey it's like having a drum machine on the tongue so

it doesn't just start with drums you can use this for since she can do some

really really cool stuff it's just brilliant and as I say all these

different loop links and really cool and say when I was working in things like Sealab 2530 years ago it was just so

cool to be able to build things very quickly so he had a bass part that

whatever eight eight bars and you had another

part that went over four bars and it's just very cool so it's one of my

favorite features as she could probably guess so the next new feature I want to

show you that has been asked for for so long especially from Pro Tools users is

AAF import and export I've got an AAF import here that's been sent to me by my friend Eli ever in Canada did it in

logic and the way you do a I think import is very simple you just grab it

and drop it in and there it is now the first thing it says to me is I can't

find any of the files so all I need to do is choose the phone grab all the

audio searching the folder I tell it where to go there it is open accept and

there's all my audio so once it's all brought in as you can see the great thing about AF is I don't need

full-length stems this is how it was laid out in logic and as you can see

it's got gaps chopped in but it's all there in the track now depending on on

the door that you export your air from it you'll have all sorts of other

options as well you can bring in things like pan and

volume and straightaway it's just very very pass now this works in other

direction as well so go file save as and there's a new option there now and it's

AF and I just choose the folder to send it to I'm gonna make sure I keep the

audio files in that folder and then I can say that as an AAF so it works in

both directions very useful when you're working with other people who may not be

using studio one or if you're moving from another door to studio one you want

to bring your songs in speaking of that the other cool new feature if we create

a new song is that we can now import song data the next cool new feature is

import song data which people have been asking for for a long time and very

straightforward it is indeed you just give song and you go to import some data

here press open and then we could choose to bring things in we can bring in the

tempo track and marker tracks we can bring in they say I just wanted to bring

the drums in so I could just choose drums there I like those in the

overheads I want that I want the reverb unit he's used as well on the events in

the layers the automation we can choose all sorts of different things you can

copy the media across and also bring in console options as well and as you can

see it's imported all the drums and the effects I wanted and I can use that for the route through a new song so very

cool feature as well so some other minor features but

still very useful one of them is that now there is a notepad feature built in

to the channels and so we could say okay double click in there use hall and write

those those things in that's the nice new feature as you can see the GUI has

got some slight changes here the way it's been laid out it's it's just a bit

more clear about what's going on in there

so you see some some GUI changes there then the other feature some people gonna

love and see if we're gonna hate there's a new kind of light View mode what I

mean that if we go into the preferences and we go into the appearance we can now

change the luminance here and almost have a kind of I suppose I would call it a able to live look or the old-fashioned

view as well so if you'd like that kind of look you can go for that look and do

all sorts of things it's not my cup of tea but for some people on laptops of

stuff they might like that version instead so that's there as well so in

summary I think you could say this is a bit of a powerhouse of a release in

version 4 as I say the new arranging and editing features at the core track the AF import the virtual instrument updates

so so many new features and it's it's well worth checking out and it's a

really great release from Presonus download the demo and check it out for

yourself thanks for watching and I'll see you again soon
