    my #1 favorite reason for using Studio One is actually that fact that you can zoom easily with your mouse. Click on the ruler with your mouse and drag. It's simple but I find myself using it all the time. When I'm in another DAW, I find myself missing it terribly. As far as I know, Luna is only other DAW that does this.

    • @kiillabytez
      @kiillabytez Рік тому

      In S1, If I have 5 tracks with different VSTi on them, I can click on a MIDI file in the browser and hear how that MIDI will sound with any selected track. I haven't reid this with multiple tracks selected, but I think I will, just out of curiosity.
      Doing the same in Live just produces an annoying general MIDI sound of a "blip" for each MIDI note.

  • @JayM928
    @JayM928 9 місяців тому

    I’ve noticed that people who are amazed and love Studio One tend to be Logic refugees. Everything that was shown in this video, in my opinion, is either the same or better in Live. The exception being the scratch pad, which is awesome-as is the arranger track, which Live also lacks.
    An example of something I think is better is the “tools” for manipulating clips. Ableton Live very clearly has kind of a top and bottom section that you can see, and what happens when you drag things around is very predictable and consistent.

      I find that 90% of users don't actually use the vst insde S1 and prefer 3rd party vst. May be due to familiarity of 3rd party vst, compared to stock vst. Whatever you feel most comfortable using, I suppose.

      Ever try to find a certain vst you can't remember the name of in Live? It's a total nightmare and disrupts the session. S1 is just so streamlined in everything it presents, and I don't know why other DAWs haven't done their own takes on them.

      But once you start down that path it can snowball very quickly. Don't be afraid to try plugins and VSTs but also don't feel obligated to keep them if they don't do it for you. A cluttered instrument and effect list soon becomes a nightmare to navigate. 👍

      @@Duvoncho That's why I don't hunt for that are effect emulators or things that are everyday common things, like compressors, reverbs, etc. Because I could see how it would lead to option overload. I went looking for ones that performed specific functions, like hamronizers, and vocal synthesis.
      As for VST Instruments, I have EZ Drummer with a Prog Metal extension, an East West Bosendofer piano, Hollywood Choir, and their Arparillo synth. I would've got their Hollywood Brass and Steven Wilson sound set had they not been so massive hence taking a week to download and install.

      Having multiple DAWs is like having multiple penis'. You really only need one. Just like the guy who collects VSTs when they've never learned to use the ones they have, it's a waste of time and resources instead of utilizing something to its fullest, and always searching for that elusive "secret sauce" that will elevate you to stardom.
      Pick something and persevere. You'll be happier and more productive in the end.

      Everything can be done in one window without disrupting your workflow, for instance, searching for that elusive plugin you just can't remember the name of, or that one MIDI file you know would sound great with that instrument, so you search for 10-minutes, find it, (because you can't truly audition MIDI files in Live) and then discover it wasn't the same clip you thought it was after dropping it onto a track, then it's back to square one. This is just one of the idiosyncrasies of Ableton Live. I really can't see how people get anything done in Live, to be honest. I used Live for months before tearing my hair out with all the frustrations I faced using that software. If you like it's workflow, then by all means, use it, but for me, it was just one disappointment after another.
