Studio One 4 was designed with ease of use at its core. It seamlessly combines the time-tested and proven recording studio model with today's beat- and loop-oriented production process so you can bring musical ideas to sonic reality more quickly than ever before. An efficient, single-screen interface houses an unlimited number of tracks, intuitive editing tools, and advanced virtual instruments. Spend your precious time creating music instead of wondering what to click next. Studio One doesn't dictate how you work or what you work on. Studio One 4 is a major update that combines the best of the traditional recording studio model with the modern methods of creating beat- and groove-oriented music. You truly can work better, faster. With Studio One 4, you create music on your terms: Create without boundaries, produce without limits. Features include: · The new Chord Track with Harmonic Editing makes it easy to prototype songs, thanks to flexible transposition, key modulation, and chord substitution for note data and audio · The Impact drum module has been reborn as Impact XT, where you can create complete arrangements in a highly developed, sophisticated production environment · Patterns bring the concept of step sequencing into the 21st century with the fastest way yet to come up with drum and percussion parts · Sample One XT turns Sample One into not just a true sampler that can record data from anywhere within the program, but a powerhouse for slicing, dicing, and rearranging loops and beats
