I think Gregor must have had loving parents. He always introduces himself with a fatherlike tenderness of help and concern to those of us who hang onto his every word.
Man Gregor is the goat hands down lol.
Man, I thought the same. If that's true, they did a great job.. He's really shining and it looks not like acting - just helps to love studio one even more! For me the best DAW.
Gregor is the king of Studio one and a fantastic teacher!! God bless him
Every now and then I start to wonder if I should be using another DAW (e.g., Ableton). Then one of these videos comes out and ask myself, “Why do people use other DAWs?” Studio One is awesome! Well done. Keep up the great work.
I feel the same!!
Only thing I'm really missing is live Looping :'(
I think I'm a Studio One power user - and still: Every sing Gregor video teaches me multiple things. Kudos, Gregor - keep it up!
These two guys be showing us thr best short cuts we never knew. They are amazing
Marvellous. I thought I am a pro in crossfading but alas am still a beginner. Please, Gregor continue unhiding such secrets in our beloved S1 DAW
You sir are a pro crossfader.
Even for simple things like Xfades, I'm surprised to see that they are so much possibilities that I would never think about. Thank you.
Love the tutorials from PreSonus always watching Joe and Gregor
Hello Gregor, The blue turtleneck really looks nice. Great Video. Thanks
Thanks Gregor! Again I learned a lot. I love studio one.
I've done a marko where the lenght of the crossfade is about "0,005" and it helps to remove clicks inbetween 2 tracks. Very helpful! And with that trick, I could also have that "no overlap when editing" to ON.
I've been using Studio One for several years but I've still been able to pick up a few things from this series of videos.
Thank You!
If there isn't one already, I'd love to see a video explaining the various snap and grid settings and how to work around them especially when you're trying to move audio around in Studio One by exact bar measurements.
wow this one is SO helpful . Thanks Gregor
Some neat little tricks here. Great quality of life time saving stuff!
Gregor, great video as always! My apologies if this has been covered elsewhere, but is there a way to discover the acceptable parameter values for a command with arguments? In this example, one could reasonably guess the crossfade time would be a positive real number, likely indicating seconds, but what about the other parameters that you didn't enter? It seems that it would be good to have some parameter guidance when double clicking on the command and entering values!
WOW, Unbelievable! Great vid Gregor.
Thank you Gregor! You're content is always incredibly helpful. Loving Studio One so far, and learning has been a breeze and a pleasure thanks to you and Joe Gilder's videos. Interested to see how I can try applying these various methods of crossfading into my own projects. Thanks again!
Thank you Gregor! You're content is always incredibly helpful, congratulation, guy
Sometimes....when I'm having a bad day I just gotta remember.
.......that it's HIM....he's totally F#@%king Gregor.....and that I'm always welcomed back to Studio One.
In that moment......that's when everything is alright again.
Excellent info & presentation as always! Thank you Gregor!
Are you kidding me? Auto-Fade for the edges is a big game changer for me! It would be also great to have that auto-fade just for the areas inbetween the selected events and not for the outer corners.
Thank you Gregor ! I Love the Macro idea !
Thank you Gregor once again!
Thanks Gregor. It'd be great if there was an input field in the inspector panel for fade curvature!
Thanks Gregor! Your are the man!
every dang time Gregor. Every dang time
Studio One is the King of all DAW’s 🤙🤙
Excellent as always! Thanks Gregor!👌😊
Such a very helpful video. Thanks Gregor. It also helped me start to understand how to program macros!
Thanks! This will save me so much time!
Always happy to see you! :)
Great additional tips! Never knew about the removing multiple crossfades for example.... and I really gotta get started on using macros. You can even assign keyboard shortcuts to them (something I learned just yet). Awesome tips, thank you very much!
Thank you Gregor I learn so much from your vids.
I have a Macro/Keyboard-Shortcut set up to split events according to my range selection and then do the auto-crossfade at the borders (Strg+Alt+X). It's a huge timesaver when editing Voice Over or Vocals and I just want to attenuate or accentuate a single word or syllable - without the crossfade this can produce an audible jump in Volume. Highly recommend it!
However I would welcome a option to disable fades being applied to all selected events. I work on a podcast and especially when working in feedback after most of the edit is done, it involves moving around a lot of parts - which means having a lot of stuff selected all the time. So I then need to deselect everything to work on a transition of a newly inserted section, then go back and select everything* and move it back into place. There's been a ton of Ctrl+X during this process because I've only noticed I had been applying fades or length-adjustments to everything but didn't notice because I was zoomed in.
*By the way - is there a way to enable VCA- and Bus-Automation alongside Events? I always have to select those independently
Can you offer instructions here on how you created this Macro? I'd find it so useful. Maybe others as well. i.e. the Series of Steps?
shift + X is a very useful one. Tks!!
We need a quiz to see if Gregor really knows all these shortcuts by heart or if he just reads them from the script
Very helpful video. Thank you.❤
epic, learn something new every day
Awesome show!
Shift + X never knew that...again I learned something new
That was really helpful. Thanks!
You are my new little buddy and I want to buy you lots of beer!
New to Studio one. Your tutorials are a lifesaver. Question. How can you fly(copy and paste) vocals from a layer track to anywhere you want to in the comp track. Example. I want to use first line of last chorus for the for the first line in first chorus but that line resides on a layer track. Thanks.
Please add Pre splice option on crossfades. That's the only way to go when using crossfades if you're splitting on transients
This is great, thanks. Any way perhaps to adjust the length of autofades?
Edit: Other than the manual way I mean. Like a setting for the length of autofades we get when we press Shift+X. Because sometimes the transient gets lost when applying autofades automatically.
Simply try to create macro similar to example in video, but instead of using "Create Crossfades" choose "Create Autofades". In arguments you can specify the length of the fades. Then you can add a new shortcut or assign "X" keyboard shortcut to this macro, if you will.
@@22jmike Thx, will look into it!
@@22jmike Finally got around to trying this - works great, just as you described. In fact it was a bit too obvious for me to miss the "Create Autofades" macro. Thanks!
@@oyaarss Glad it worked!
Amazing! Is there a way to fade in or out samples inside sample one XT?
Hi bro! When you make update SampleOne? No mute for the second, third and fourth samples in the layer.
Make a good audio(mp3,wav) to midi converter, аnd please add Russian language. Do you have a roadmap? Where can you see her?
Brilliant! I fking LOVE Studio One!
Danke, sehr hilfreich!
Very interesting touches. You guys are off the hook!
Can Studio One have an in-built or stock pitch corrector? This will be very dope you know
Melodyne is fully integrated with Studio One, and comes with it for free.
@@NoQualmsTheArtist Oh yeah true! Cool.
Ionno if there's already a video on it. Of there is, please share. Thanks
@@charmsproduction7254 ua-cam.com/video/4IIluC4w8xY/v-deo.html
@@NoQualmsTheArtist thank you so much...you're too much
Every time I watch one of Gregor's video-I have to remind myself that it will be several years to catch up on all these tricks.
Truth be told, I couldn't discern any change watching the video-maybe it was the genre of music?
I think I stumbled onto Crossfades after recording a guitar track. It changed the whole guitar track and rendered it unusable.
I can see this being useful with anything but rock/blues in a standard time format-3/4 or 4/4 time.
Trap/LoFi/Rap genre's use more electronic sounds. But I digress-I am nowhere near a power user.
Still- was interesting to see how to invoke the command and the 3 tricks. Maybe I will try this with vocals. Thank you Gregor.
Just using crossfades to prevent any parts from clicking is worthwhile.
@@thedevilsadvocate5210 Yes-thank you-But I currently do not use any "click tracks". I use EZ Drummer and create my initial drum beat. Sometimes, I will have a song completed with just EZ Drummer and a guitar. After, I add vocal and bass tracks and additional tracks as needed.
Offtopic question, but what is that device behind Gregor's right shoulder? The one with all the knobs and sliders?
Hi there, This video is great but i want to select the crossfade and only the crossfade. When you click on it, the left and right enements are also selected, so when you delete the crossfade, you also delete the other left and right crossfades. No one has given me an answer yet, so I'm using the mousse. In Pro Tools, you can select only the crossfade region this does not seem possible in Studio One ? Thank you in advance.
Very cool and useful! I'm sure I can apply some of this to 2.6.
However, the range for the "Bend" argument is 0..1 (only affecting if Type is "Logarithmic" or "Exponential").
Thanks. I use v5.5.2. All fade options are greyed out in Audio menu. Any ideas why I can't do fade?
adjusting all fades is nice, but I dont know how many times I messed up my session cause I had multiple selected, adjusted one fade and didnt realize it changed them all.
Great that you can remove them. Can you remove a slice? And when I change the layer content of an event why does the original layer disappear forever? (it's not in the list of layer content) this is a problem if you decide later you want the original layer restored. For example I'm comping a drum track with 3 layers and slice before and after a drum roll and select other layer, I can the always change that layer but the original is not an option, it's like it's lost forever.
Thankyou 🔥❤️
Is it possible to crossfade 2 events in different tracks? I mean easier than fade out manually one, and fade in the other.... thx. Greetings from Argentina
Can you copy a cross fade and apply it to other sections?
Thanks
Can i ask something? can I set fade out in the form of inverted S shape (such as abletone live) on wav region? ( what I can see the types only: exponential, linear, logarithmic options)
Hmmm. Any explanation for why Removing Crossfades is giving me inconsistent results? I'm on Windows. I'm following all instructions. I made a Keyboard Shortcut: Shift+Alt+X. I select multiple events. I add the X-fades. I adjust the X-fades. Then I test selecting and deleting them. Sometimes it totally works. Sometimes I get nothing (no matter how many attempts). Sometimes it adjusts all the crossfades between connected events, but not the initial fade-in of the first event or manual fade-out of the last event. Are "fade-ins" and "fade-outs" NOT to be included in manipulating Crossfades?
EDIT: As I experiment more, it seems that the keys must be hit at exactly the same time, else I get "Split at Cursor" or "Create Crossfades" (according to the Undo History). And if I've done more than one round of creating crossfades, only the latest gets removed. So, I can mostly make it work now.
Which audio interface and mike do you use?
In a macro, how would I control the type of fade for autofade? It seems to only give linear fade for autofades.
How can I also add an Exponential Fad Out and a Logaritmic Fade In to the macro? (Equal Power is called in other DAWs)
Is crossfade and see same or different from each other?
Shift x, sh*t yes Gregor!
seriously good video
Thank you so much! -GBY
@@presonus np there are others that make videos for you guys i won't say any names but its more about them then teaching and then teach the wrong things so really good job
Brilliant tips!
👍👍👍
Remove Xfades - finally.
Gregor, does this also remove fades?
I mean if there are (for example) several events selected, with the 1st having a little fade in, the last having a little fade out, and crossfades between them - will this remove ALL fades, or just the Xfades?
A "Remove all fades" command is also useful, like Cubase/Nuendo has.
Nope, it removes only crossfades, fade ins and outs stay in place. It is easy to check in S1. I've tried every possible option, and it seems that you have to do it manually on event level (Ctrl + click on triangle in a corner, or set fades in inspector to 0). You can try to build "Create Autofades" macro, with argument set on 0, I've tried but in my S1 this particular macro behaves a bit unpredictable.
@@22jmike Tnx for the info! 👍 I've often asked for a "Remove Xfades" and also "Remove ALL fades" option to be introduced in S1. Glad to see at least one has, for now.
Hi Gregor, great explanation as always, but! I don't find how I can simply fade out 1 track. I use Studio one 6 Artist.
Thank you very much! It sounds like you're looking for the "Fade Out from Cursor" command. You can assign it to any key or button from the Keyboard Shortcuts menu. Hope this helps! -GBY
@@presonus Thank you for your answer, but sorry, it is not clear for me. So I have a tune nearly ready, but in the middle part I would like to fade out the Horns. In my previous DAW I just simply marked to part on the track what I want to fade out, right click, then fade out. I am new using Studio one, and I don't find the simple fade out tool (not crossfades). Thank you, Tom
Follow the steps to create a crossfade keyboard short cut but when i use it , it only does a fade no crossfade what iam doing wrong??
Thanks, great tips, but where is equal power crossfade? Quite useful when glueing clipped parts. I used it a lot in Logic Pro.. but nowadays I use Studio One almost exclusive.
"equal power" is just a standard linear crossfade. You could consolidate two events that are crossfading into each other with the "G" key. -GBY
@@presonus from Logic pro manual:
EqP (Equal Power Crossfade): Results in an Equal Power crossfade. This minimizes volume dips between audio regions, resulting in a more even crossfade between regions that may be slightly different in level.
And exactly with (longer) linear crossfade I hear dip in volume.. but not with eqp crossfade.
I tried to make a macro for a logarithmic crossfade but it doesn't work. What exactly do I have to type into that second "type"-field? I tried "logarithmic", "log", and some numbers, but the result is linear all the time.
I found it... you have to write Logarithmic (with cap "L"). But the Bend Numbers doesn't seem to make any sense...
Fade in and out for sample one XT and impact XT pls
How can I set logarithmic crossfades as default?? In macros there is crossfade TYPE, but it's not work.
I was hoping to hear difference between crossfade types, but there not this, nor how to exactly write type when creating macros ("exp"? "exponential"? or just "e"? or maybe 1, 2 or 3?)
Very very well
Ich wunder mich öfter mal, warum die Erzeugung von shortcuts nicht bei der Erzeugung von Makros eingebettet ist. So ist es eher umständlich.
Is there an option to have an autocrossfade when i double clic to Split an event ? it will be huge time saving
You could build a Macro, or use the keyboard shortcut Shift+X right after splitting. -GBY
@@presonus thanks Gregor, i know that. It will be cool to have that "auto fade" option
Gregor got like 9,000 keyboard shortcuts memorized. I got like 3 and I still forget them. 🤣
Kann es sein, dass Studio One 5.5 tatsächlich keine S-Curve-Fades anbietet? Das kann doch nicht sein, ich stelle mich bestimmt zu dumm an, um das zu finden, oder zumindest manuell zu editieren. Fände ich zumindest sinnvoller, als alle Blenden per Macro mit vorgegebenen Blendzeiten zu realisieren. Mache häufig auch Klassikschnitt und dort ist der S Verlauf extrem wichtig. Schneide aber beruflich eben viel mit Sequoia was knapp Faktor 10 teurer ist als Studio One. Trotzdem sollte Presonus dieses Feature bald nachliefern, falls es tatsächlich nicht irgendwo versteckt sein sollte.
S-Curves lassen sich mit Clip Gain Envelopes oder Lautstärke-Automationen realisieren. -GBY
@@presonus Danke für den Tipp. Das wird sicherlich gehen. Ist aber für eine schnelle intuitive Bearbeitung umfangreicher Projekte keine echte Alternative. Wäre es denn für ein kommendes Update nicht möglich, diese Blendenform zusätzlich mit einzubauen? Gehört m.E. bei einer DAW mit zum Standard-Equipment.
Gregooooor, what a darling you are! Shift + X = autofades. Just what I was looking for, thank you xxx... < that's kiss, kiss, kiss, not crossfade, crossfade, crossfade. 😘
hahaha! 😘🫶 -GBY
wait - WHAT?? Where can I find a list of "type"s of fades to choose from? (there is no drop-down or mention of this in the manual I can find) - Where is a list of "bend"s? How can I specify fades to always end at the junction between events rather than average out half the length of the specified time overlapping the two? help? 😕
well, I figured out one thing - you have to capitalize the first letter of your choice from the list Gregor mentions. "logarithmic" won't work. Gotta be "Logarithmic". Also, the number setting goes opposite from what I expected (1=stronger, 3=weaker).
No autofade without hitting X??? Most DAWS do this without yet another key command.
Hum, it does not work (ShitX), maybe I am not doing it properly or is this a feature only available on Professional or Shere?
ShiFt+X creates autofades and it have to work in every S1version.
Why aren't cross fades created automatically like in other daws? it looks very unprofessional that you have to worry about clicks most of the time when in other daws you don’t even think about it
Damn why mine doesn’t work
Very helpful video
