artists of all levels, from beginner to seasoned professional, will find studio one a serious alternative to the intimidating, bloated offerings currently considered the standards. it's a groundbreaking music creation and production application for mac os x and windows xp/vista/7 that makes audio recording, midi sequencing, and audio mastering ridiculously simple right out of the box.

studio one changes the rules of the game with fresh code, innovative draganddrop midi mapping and plugin management, autoconfiguration with presonus hardware, insanely good audio quality, unlimited tracks and plugins per track, and a powerful, inventive start page.

and although studio one pro hit the scene just a year and a half ago, we've already added even still more pro chops with version 1.6. from tracking to mixing to mastering and distribution, it's the creative environment built for intuitive use, speed, and efficiency–and yet it's robust enough for the most complex productions.
