PreSonus has introduced the latest version of its DAW, Studio One Pro. Version 7.2 includes a variety of new features, including virtual instruments, tuners, transcription tools, and more.
“Recording is gaining more popularity than ever – especially with guitarists,” says Arnd Kaiser, General Manager of Software at PreSonus. “Studio One Pro 7’s latest update offers powerful tools for guitarists and music creators of all types. Our goal with this and future updates is to continue improving our DAW while giving our community the tools they need to feel inspired.”
PreSonus is owned by Fender, so many of the new updates are geared towards guitar players, the company says. Incidentally, Fender also recently launched Fender Studio, an a new app-based DAW that we dubbed “the closest thing to Studio One in your pocket”.
First up among the new additions in Studio One Pro 7.2 is a new virtual instrument, Sub Zero Bass, which opens possibilities for all manner of low-end creativity including synth basses, bass guitars, bass textures and more. The instrument was designed by the established film scoring team, The Solos.
Studio One Pro 7.2 also features an updated tuner – Tuner² – which now has over 30 presets for guitar with the ability to save both open and custom tunings. Whichever tuning you prefer, just save it in there, click a button and start tuning up.
7.2 also now features the Nashville Number System, a method of transcribing music which denotes the scale degree on which a chord is built, designed to simplify and speed up any transcription you do within Studio One Pro.
Additionally, users can now use a footswitch to punch in and out manually or use Auto Punch – now with the ability to use adjustable Post-roll, Pre-roll and Auto Punch in any combination.
A feature which PreSonus says has been widely requested by users and now added in Studio One Pro 7.2 are continuous cursor options, which mean the play cursor can now be fixed either to the centre or the left-hand side of an arrangement, with Parts and Events scrolling continuously underneath.
Studio One Pro 7 came out back in October, which added Splice integration and AI-powered stem separation among many other add-ons.
Studio One Pro 7 is priced at £118.99 for new users, with existing users able to update to 7.2 for free.
