Pros / Cons
  • It’s an amazing free tool that allows you to do the basics of audio editing and recording.
  • You cannot record audio remotely using it, which means you'll need a separate tool like Riverside or Squadcast for remote recording if you need that functionality.

  • Fantastic, have made a few tracks with Studio One, and continue to use it, as a previous Cubase user, it was simple to pick up and use, and I find the plugin integration easy, a lot of drag and drop, which I like.
  • I’ts not always easy to use with the current settings and features.
