First mix is done in Cakewalk, most of it is done with stock plugins. My main concern was if I can get the same sounding mix. Now I tried the demo of Studio One v4 and I really like it. And when you press play/pause it freezes for half a second before anything happens, so there´s general sluggishness. In yet another project when I edit the automation on one channel, it does the same thing for all visible automation lanes, which it usually doesn´t do.

In another project, when I copy some automation points from a bus track, it doesn´t paste it to that same track, but rather to some other random audio track. I´m constantly running into weird little hick ups that don´t break the program, but get really inconvenient.įor example, in one project the automation read just stopped working. But now v4 is out, so I gave it another go.Īnd here´s the thing - while I love the mix and the approach to the DAW very much, it´s buggy, at least for me. And I wasn´t really happy with a lot of things in Studio One v3. I originally switched to Cakewalk because I really like the mix I got from it´s stock plugins and the pro channel modules.

So i´m thinking of going back to Studio One. Studio One is super smooth, but I need to tweak more to get the sound I like.
