Thanks so much for the love guys!! Made my weekend. Updated the video description with the song link for anyone interested. :) -GBY
⁸ ok 98
0000000⁰⁰0⁰0000⁰0⁰0⁰
Don't ever apologize for speaking multiple languages! :) Love this series of videos. Extremely helpful!
Studio One V8 now with AI Gregor assistant :D
I REALLY needed this! Thank you 🎁
hahahaha
There’s a version 8 lol I just got 5 pro ? What happened to 6 and 7
I wouldn't be surprised, they might just do it hahah
You were predestined to be different(Romans 8:29), he who has an ear to hear, let him hear(Mark 4:9).
HALLELUYAH!(PRAISE YE YAH!)
I was thinking of demoing Vocalign and had not realized that Studio One does what Vocalign does already (put bendmarkers based on another track), for free, and already integrated in the DAW. Wow!
Gregor's own workflow and how it evolved is the real gold in this video
Absolutely love your videos. Started watching the short ones because they were straight to the point and I feel like this video, albeit longer, is still straight to the point. Perfect learning tool!
Thanks for addressing the power of the audio bend tool Gregor. I work with an artist who overdubs his vocals in his tracks and he often either comes in too early or too late on the second take, so I find the audio bend tool to be my go to for aligning the imperfections. It's pretty cool.
Great idea combining the tab and bend marker commands into a macro! Thanks Gregor!
Gregor's videos have changed the way I work with my DAW so much and helped me work quickly enough to find a way to make music again for the first time in a long time.
That means the world to me to hear. Thank you so much for your kind comment! I'm so glad you are back to making music. Keep at it! -GBY
Your videos are always so on point - thank you so much for the time you put into them. I've just started using my Roland TR-8s Drum Machine in Studio One and there are a few issues with it keeping time - but I've found audio quantize fixing it and this tutorial was perfect for what I needed and works SO well on Drum Machines :)
Enjoying the tutorials Gregor! Thanks!
AMAZING! Thank you, Gregor, for showing us AGAIN the magic of macros. I was nodding my head along when you were describing the dark side of bend marking for the perfect performance. At 7:33 a single tear rolled down my cheek-I recall literally staring into my screen with all the markers then looking at how long it had taken me to arrange all those markers and instead of feeling happy about my progress I was totally stressing about this new problem that I now had. KNOWING that I had the tools to get the perfect performance but regretting the time spent getting there. I recall feeling totally gutted and saying those exact words to myself aloud. Once again, you reached into the dark side of my own music production drama and brought to light an amazingly lovely solution all packaged into a macro. Thank you! By the way, I always enjoy hearing your different tracks!
Bo, thanks so much for sharing - reading this made my day!! -GBY
Super helpful. Thank you for the tips and generosity of the Macro!
Amazing information and explanation. Thanks Gregor !
Wow I just discovered this feature and this tutorial was an absolute gamechanger for me. Thank you!!!
Such a wonderful and helpful video! I can't put into words how grateful I am for all your content. Thank you so much for sharing!
"Buenas... acá Pedro Bellora..." !!
@@MrMelancobar Ja, ¡un gusto encontrarnos en esta parte del bosque de internet! :-) ¡Gracias y un abrazo!
this was so helpful - thanks Gregor!!
I just started recording in studio one yesterday, but I've already learned so much with videos like this. Thanks!
Thank you so much Gregor! This really helped me out!
Excellent command of information. Thank you.
Thanks for the macro Gregor... easy and useful
Crikey, this is helpful. I've always somewhat struggled with bend markers. This is a gamechanger!
God Bless You. I've needed this since the Dawn of time
Thank You Gregor . I always forget how to use the bend markers, :-) your video was very helpful.
Love this! I didn’t even know I needed this lol. Thanks for advice/help :)
Its actually amazing for sound design, you can even phase align your kick using snap to zero bending. this is an amazing tool!
Super slick. Keep up the awesome work.
Thanks, Gregor! Bless, you man!
Nice one Gregor B, studio one my DAW my dream! 🔥
Thanks for walking me through this!!
You are so welcome! Glad it helped you out. -GBY
no apologies needed for the performance being in German! Love it!
that's great, thanks a lot. In case you do a refresher of the vid, please note that using the option key can be used to trim a complete section / track at once. I was looking for this for hours 😅. Now I got the snippets around the same length I can go on with your great bending insights. Thanks again for this great vid.
Fantastic video and the song sounds fantastic. Nice work!
Thanks so much!! -GBY
Super helpful and eliminates my
Need for Vocalign! Thanks Gregor
you're very welcome Devin! Thanks!! -GBY
where has this video been for the last 7 years?! lol thank you Gregor for yet MORE insight on the power of Studio One I didn't know it had!
"starting and stopping like a maniac"
This is great - thanks for the macro Gregor - great work!
So glad it's helpful! Thanks Paul! -GBY
I love this guy!!! Great art, great presentation, great music, great DAW!!! Thx PreSounus!
Thanks so much
Vielen Dank, dass hilft mir extremst!
Nice that will help me out for sure
Thank you Gregor, I didn't know you could do this in studio one, makes life more interesting. That's a fire track by the way 🔥
Thanks so much!! -GBY
Thank you for another great video. I appreciate these more and more, since i feel S1 had gotten a lot more versatile but also (as a consequence in part would be expected) less transparent.
Thanks I'm grateful
awesome tips thank you
Thank you sir ❤️👍👍
Been doing this manually omg! Lots of work and time.. You save my life bro 👍👍
So glad it helped you out! Thanks Azmi! -GBY
Glad your back.....Fantastisch und GEIL....immer DAF 😉
Hehe, war ich weg? :) EBM all the way! :D -GBY
Gregor Capo! Saludos desde Argentina!
Gracias Leo!! 🙏 -GBY
Dude you are awesome!
Maybe an improvement:
When you have created the bend markers, you should be able to highlight a bend marker and adjust it in "ticks" with some sort of "left/right"-arrow key. Then use some sort of macro/shortcut to go to the previous/next bend marker and adjust that too. This will speed up the workflow when you want to adjust the timing of the position of the bend markers.
When you are done you could press shift+command+A to unhighlight the last bend marker you are adjusting.
A bonus feature would be that when you are highlighting a bend marker you should see that exact position in the transport window and when you unhighlight it you should see the playback position again.
actually came to this video looking for an answer to this very same thing
Esta herramienta es genial! no sabia cómo usarla asi que ahora la voy a poner en practica. MAGISTRAL COMO SIEMPRE Presonus con sus tutoriales y Gregor con la explicación.
¡Gracias Franco! 🙏 ❤️ -GBY
Thanks Gregor! Always learn so much from your videos, and never get tired of watching. You're express things so very clearly, and you always come across as so positive.
Your workflow, and commitment to efficiency got me thinking... Thought I'd toss out some possible S1 enhancements, perhaps someone will think they're worth including. I suppose I should post them, but I don't have time for a concise write-up, right now.
It would be great if Bend and Range could share a 'top and bottom' arrangement, like the arrow key and the range tool. That would be especially handy when tightening vocals... especially when trying to audition and place bend markers at the end of words, or at the end of groups of words, or in other non-transient-based locations.
It would be handy to have a single key that would audition or play next transient range', as well.
Hi Lee, thanks so much for your kind words & that's a really cool idea. You can build a Macro to have a single key that would audition or play the next transient range, though. You'd probably want to combine the hotkeys "Move Range to Hotspot" and "Play Selected Range" to achieve this. -GBY
@@presonus My pleasure. Thanks Gregor!
GREEEEEEGORRRRRR!!!! thanks homie
Mega! Richtig Usefull!
thanks for the contributions, fantastic studio one, i have the artist version of this fantastic daw but i have a problem, i use fl studio vst in combination with studio one 5 and when i do internal bouncing with the ctrl-b commands and others it does not work for me, the audio is cancelled and it is left without waveform, the audio dies, Even if I export the audio of a previously made composition, I don't know what to do and if you could help me I would appreciate it since I am a bit frustrated since this is the daw I feel comfortable with and do my job better, and this fl studio vst is vital for the kind of music I do and the daw I handle well is studio one. Thank you.
Tks , love you
Thank you Gregor. Is it possible to use bend markers when the time track is active?
Very good gregor....
Thanks so much Nirav 🙏 -GBY
I've been producing for a whole lot of years this is my opinion. Just because you can do something doesn't mean you should! Modern music can be so over corrected, pitch corrected, quantized etc. that the life gets robbed out of it. This imo contributes to shorter shelf life as the listener is bored more quickly. It's the imperfections that can make things perfect. You have to use judgment, was that too much or not enough. One artist that comes to mind is BT, I don't know about now but he would time correct "everything" to the nano second and to me he hurt things more than helped. Thanks for the video, your English is great and so are your tutorials!
Hey thanks!! You are absolutely right of course. I'm merely teaching a technique, where it's applicable is completely up to you. :) -GBY
@@presonus Yes I know, it's a great tool and I love S1 and even you. Hahah
Great video ;)
Really nice! But why are the bend markers being positioned after the start of a transient?
As you can see at 5:40 the auto-detected markers are not at the beginning of the transient but slightly after.
For Drums or Bass, this feature makes no sense, and it will always position the snares and kicks slightly before the grid and not on point.
It would be great to know how to disable this feature.
If you pay close attention to what happens as soon as I quantize, you will notice that the beginning of the bend marker range is what’s being quantized - just like you want it to be. -GBY
@@presonus Thanks for the reply, but this is not true.
Why is the bend marker being placed after the start of the soundwave?
When you take a close look at 5:56, after you press "apply", the bend marker is being positioned on the grid. So far so good.
The problem is, that there is still sound left before the bend marker that is not on the grid as one would expect.
If you choose the "splice" option instead of quantize, studio one quantizes the audio as expected from the beginning of the transients.
No other DAW acts this way.
This issue has been there for years apparently.

PS: Wir können uns gerne auf Deutsch unterhalten/telefonieren/mailen, dann kann ich das Problem vorführen.
Das Problem mit der Quantisierung ist der Grund, warum ich nicht komplett auf Studio One umsteigen kann, obwohl ich es gerne würde.

In general, should you bounce to new recording after you quantize the audio? Thanks.
Thank you Gregor for this pieces of advice. :) It'll save my time and make my work as a vocalist much easier.
The more I discover about S1, the more happy I am to have chosen this DAW.
Also, I like the Rammstein vibe of those vocals ;) Can I hear this song somewhere?
Грегор, очень благодарю тебя за прекрасный видео-урок. Ты настоящий далекий и незнакомый друг! У тебя теперь есть друг в России! Подписался!
Hi joe I have a question for you please does the Bluetooth capability on the studiolive mixers work with Bluetooth earbuds please sir
So cool.
My guy! looking forward for our next Studio One Meet-up.
yes indeed!! -GBY
Das ist verdammt großartig
❤️ -GBY
Thank you Gregor :- ) ... please tell me: If you have a very long track, where you only want to edit some parts at the the beginning the track, and at the same time want to preserve the timing at the end of the track, would you then first slice the audio track, before you start editing? ( in order to avoid that the last moved bender marker doesn't mess with the timing of last portion of the audio track ?
Hi Kim, just slicing the event wouldn't be enough, you would also have to set a bend marker at the point where you wouldn't want any time stretching to occur anymore. The time stretching is applied to the clip ( = the whole audio file), so it does not stop at event boundaries. The easiest way to make sure that you really only edit some part at the beginning would be to slice it, and then hit cmd+b (Mac) ctrl+b (Windows) for "Bounce Selection". Now you have a completely separate copy that you can edit without affecting anything else. :) -GBY
Gregor is such a boss
I'm a dj & i use studio one for remixes & dj mixes,which i love except!!! When i want to quantize or warping tracks...What ever you want to call it...If i wanted to warp an old track & put it on the grid with the metronome,ableton quantize process is very easy to do which is the only reason why i use ableton, is there any update in the future for this process??? The transient detection is off in studio one
hey Gregor - (You are my hero.. :-)) once the bend markers have been placed, how do i "burn" them into the track? do I need to "finalize" them in some way?
Thank you so much, Rohan! If you want to commit your Bend Marker edits, you can do so by selecting the event and pressing cmd+b (on Mac), or ctrl+b (on Windows). Hope this helps! :) -GBY
hi Gregror good video. Is there any way in Studio One to use Tab to Transient to add a clip gain envelope at a transient?
Hi Nick, no there isn't, because we do not have a keyboard shortcut that does this (yet). I really like the idea though, because this could be used in conjunction with alt+arrow keys to move clip gain / automation nodes up or down in increments of +/- 0,6. Thanks for the suggestion! -GBY
Can i make a macro that let you listen bar before cursor ?
Nice
Hey Gregor, what computer keyboard are you using it looks really cool!
Nothing like EBM in German - truly powerful!!
💪🤝❤️ -GBY
Does Presonus make a good de-sser that you can put on your voice?
Which shortcuts are you using to add a bend marker?
If i want to audio bend say 12 tracks of drums how i do that? can I do multiple tracks at once or should I make a single track for the drums?
Where can you get a stand like that for the faderport?
Hey gregor thanks for these videos ,
I have question i come from fl and now switching to studio one , is there multi core support for intel processors if yes then how can i utilise multicores of my processor , i understand audio works in sigle threads but is there any way to utilise cpu better . Any tips for cpu other then buffer size .
Respect and love for these videos
Hi SUKOON, thanks so much for your support! Studio One automatically utilises multicore processing wherever possible. You are correct about the single thread architecture of audio channels, but we can harness the power of multithread in many monitoring situations regardless - for example, when playing Multi Instruments live. As for CPU tips, I would recommend you to start with a low block size of 64 or 128 samples and Dropout Protection Minimum. If you're experiencing audible clicks / pops / dropouts, click on the CPU meter in the bottom left of the Transport Bar to increase the Dropout Protection. You can also enable "Z" mode for instrument and/or audio channels to monitor those at your native low block size (say, 64 samples), while handling playback of everything else with a higher latency (say Dropout Protection Medium = 512 samples). This can potentially allow you to monitor instruments with very low latency even in large sessions, without your CPU having to tap out. Please watch my tutorial here if you'd like to learn more: ua-cam.com/video/qJI6fXewu_I/v-deo.html -GBY
@@presonus thanks buddy i have seen the whole palylist but will , hear it again so that i can pick something new
@@presonus i have another small question does audio interface somehow reduces strain on the cpu
Does anyone know if this is available on the Prime version? I can't seem to find it.
random question. Is there a way to permanently set the sample size to 48, instead of 44.1? So my system doesn’t sit here fighting with itself, clicking, while they fight trying to influence the other to switch over to 48 or 44.1? Its a lot of unnecessary Drama to go thru on a start page, just to switch back to 48 once I get into a song session\
Does artist version has this option? Or it is only on Pro version.
Gregor is this used instead of voca align plugins?
can u do tab to transient backwards ?
That song sounds very Rammstein-ish, cool stuff!
🔥🔥
Many of these tutorial video's instruct the listener to right click the mouse on a button. However, I have Smart mouse (really) iMac. There is no left/right button. How do you execute with iMac mouse?
I created bend markers for audio to align Horn tracks. I decided to quantize the bridge of the melody instead of manually aligning the tracks. I cut the audio up into individual events and tried to restore the bend markers to their original location within the events. Unfortunately all of the bend markers for the track are restored to their original location, including the A section of the melody which I manually adjusted. I just want to restore the bend markers on the bridge not the entire track. I could not find any infromation on the web to solve this problem. In Logic once you cut up event up you are able to restore the flex marker to thier original position without affecting any of the other pieces of the audio. The same in digital performer. Your help to my problem is greatly appreciated. Have a great day!
Hahaha die vocals, bester Mann 😂💪
Hi from Australia Gregor. Which algorithm would you suggest for acoustic rhythm guitar?
Hi Kev, try the “Sound” algorithm. That should work very well. -GBY
@@presonus Danke Gregor.
I notice when I quantize my pedal sustain no longer matches up with my played notes. Is there a way to quantize the sustain moments along with the notes so they still match up? Thank you!
HERO!!!
I love your videos and Studio One, but sadly I'm experiencing a lot of bugs and unstable performance in version 5 right now and so much, that I have to start using version 4.6 again until these bugs have been fixed.
Version 4.6 is stable so far
Hi Dennis, what bugs are you experiencing? Studio One 5.0.2 is working extremely well for me. -GBY
hello, could you assist with a problem? one of my record tracks suddenly stoped showing the detected transients, i clicked twice on the track and realised that the track had the bend markers but only in the Edit bellow, it doesn't show "outside" on the layer above. what did i do wrong?
I'm getting all the markers and it shows that the waves are being manipulated, but there's no change in audio? Any suggestions?
I have one question Gregor. You use a shortcut to place a bend marker at the transients detected by using tab. I tried to find this shorcut in the Studio One reference manual but did not find it. Please could you tell me what it is.
Thank you
The command is called “Insert Bend Marker”. You can find & assign it in the keyboard shortcuts menu. :)
@@Tx66 Thank you very much Gregor for your answer.
The bend markers are cool.
But always have the problem(normally on drums) that in any moment they dissapear and i cant get it back, and the audio stay like original so i need to do it again, any answer? 🙌
Hi Fernando, I can recall a bug like that from version 4.1.2, but that is a looooooooong time ago. Please update Studio One to the latest available version, the issue should be long resolved. -GBY
Gregor, my helpful friend, I hope you are well
Hey thanks!! Doing great, how are you? :) -GBY
@@presonus Good to hear. I'm doing great, picking up a lot of valuable knowledge from your 20 part series so thank you for that! 👍
Hi Gregor. what I need to say , not saying about importance of factual meaning (it's obvious), great sound & video quality and short encompassing the subject, thx and regards!
Thank you so much Adam!! -GBY
Wonderful video. Really useful. And never apologise for the German vocals - I don't speak it but you shouldn't apologise Gregor.
I was a bit worried that people might have a harder time judging vocal timings if it's in a different language. Fortunately that seems not to be the case. Thanks so much for your kind words! -GBY
