Have you ever been producing a song in Studio One and after you keep adding a bunch of new sounds, virtual instruments, and plugins, your DAW starts spiking, glitching and lagging?
There IS a way to fix this performance issue and in this video I share 3 very simple things you can do to save CPU keep your DAW from clipping in Presonus Studio One.
1. Transform Virtual Instruments to Rendered Audio
2. Transform Tracks That Have Multiple "CPU Heavy" Plugins
3. Use FX Channels On Reverbs & Delays
I hope this tutorial is helpful!

Massive. almost gave up on studio one but realised that all Daws have issues with performance but there's always a way about it. Thanks nice video
You're amazing. I've been working with Studio One for a short time, but have a track I really like and wanting to expand on. But this rendering/grouping audio has made it a billion times easier to add more tracks (w/VSTs) and help the writing process without my Macbook playing back a glitched out version of my song.
I have been using StudioOne for about two years, but I have been recording for decades. These are all great tips for people getting into recording using DAWs. It's a constant battle, especially if you are doing lead vocals, dubs, harmonies, reverb, compression, etc., on top of various guitars, which of course need Plugins, then of course you then drag in instrument midi tracks, Drum tracks, etc. The next thing you know, you are dealing with latency, cracks and pops all over the place. It's actually better to record DRY as much as possible, then add plugins and effects later. Your advice on creating FX buses is the best advice, because those type of things use up all your memory. You didn't mention it, but MIXDOWNs are also handy, but you have to be more committed. Great Job!
Thank you!! It's been a while searching guys like you! Very clear simple and logic 👍
By far the most helpful video in regards to CPU usage on Studio One. Thanks a million!
Big Thank you Marcus The Indie Music Lab. Pure gold audio advice tips for working in Studio One. Massive influence in work flow for music production. Like your style straight to the point. Your an Audio/Producer Angel. Thank you so much.
"Bounce the freakin thing to audio."
That one was awesome, hahaha! Nice video, man.
This was a much needed and valuable tutorial. Thanks buddy.
The ability to transform back to the original midi instrument just blew my mind. Great tip I’ll be using later today. Thanks!
Love to hear it! It’s such a game changer. Good luck 👍🏻
Everyone should nominate you to work for Presonus with Joe and Gregor.
Haha I appreciate that :)
Thank you very much. You helped me save tons of CPU load. Today I was actually struggling hard, but your tips are very handy. Thank you once again. Keep us updated with more tips. God bless.
So glad to hear that! Thank you for the comment
I've just transferred from CbW to Studio One and your tips have helped enormously. Thanks so much 🙂
I’m so glad to hear that! And welcome to Studio One. You’re gonna love it here :)
You just got yourself a lifetime subscriber. Really helpful
So glad you found it helpful! Thank you!
Thanks. Great stuff. Your reaction at the end of tip one is right on.
eally good review of this plugin. I've been using this for a few days
and so far I really like it. I have found it works best after I have
mixed a song without it first as best as I can. At that point I bring in
Abby Road 3 and cycle through the speaker options. This will make any
imperfections in the mix stick out like a sore thumb, usually in the
lower mids. Abby Road 3 can help take your mixes up a notch or two when
you don't have state of the art equipment to work with.
Great video, Really explained the fx send process nicely, clear and concise. Liked and subbed. Thanks man.
I appreciate that so much man!
Good teacher, very detail explanation. I enjoy every single technique and steps...
You need waaaaay more subs man. I’ve been battling horrible CPU clipping as I’m working on my EP, and it’s only the first song. Started to lose hope until I came across this, HUGE thanks man.
I’m stoked that you found it helpful! Good luck on your EP!
Had the same problem in Ableton until I learned about Freeze/Flatten
MIDI is very CPU intensive unfortunately
Excellent, full of perfect logic and efficiency. Mr. Spock would be proud.
Incredibly helpful! Thanks.
Great Info!
I have always bounced my midi to audio but didn't know about the transform feature!
Thanks!
Thank you! It wasn’t that long ago when I discovered that feature and it’s been such a game changer for me. Good luck!
Lifesaver, great tips thank you. As well you might also check the cache. (Preferences- advanced - audio - check mark "use cache for timestreched audio files," .)
Subbed brother subbed! This is exactly what I needed!🙏✌🏻
Thank you so much for this. I’m always clipping and had no clue how to fix it- especially when my gain is in the negatives lol. This helped everything, thank you!!
So glad you were able to fix the problem!
It was really awesome it really helped me....lots of love❤️
You are a great teacher! Just Subscribed

Very clear instructions and very useful too.
Useful video I already use no. 1 and 3 but will look at also including tip 2 on future projects
Love that. Good luck!
Really you teach a great. Very important topic you covered. Thanks again ❤️
what?! i didn't know that you could pan the send the way you did. and also automating the sends that way. on top of saving CPU!so thank you!
IT WORKED LIKE MAGIC. THANKS.
Great video. I m new to Studio One, plus im using an older mac. Can't wait to try this. I m a Pro tools guy.
Glad I found this video! Great information you gave, thanks!
Happy to help!
I am changing to studio one and it surprises me every single day
Yep Studio One is amazing
great. Thank you so much. This is what we'll do in future on studio one.
Keep up your work!
Thank you!
wow, you're awesome. Thank you for shared the tips..
Life saver. Thank you!
Great tips - thanks!
Best tutorial ever, THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!!
Excellent info! Thank you!

So glad to hear that!
Thank you very much! Hi from Brazil.
Thanks so much my friend
Very helpful 🙏
Excellent, really useful. Thank you!!!
So glad you found it helpful! Thank you!
Something I found out yesterday, if you use an Audiobox, make sure you have an updated version of universal controller. That solved so many weird issues I was having, but mainly performance. I’m running 4 channels with STL amphub on and it’s been going fine.
Thank you! Thank you!🙏🙏🙏🙏
Thank you!
Much Appreciated!

Good video fellow.
فوق العاده عالی
Thank you so much!
You’re welcome! Happy to help
Great tips buddy ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️🎸🇬🇧 never realised I could break the individual kik snare hats etc back out into separated midi and then be able to convert to separate audio trax.
Thank you! That was a game changer for me too
@@theindiemusiclab hi, can you do a video on how to use the pigments appergiator to appergiate a different vst inside Studio One. I only found videos on ableton but nothing on Studio One
@@ELLIOT8209 Hey thanks for the request. I actually don’t know what you’re referring to by “pigments arpeggiator.” Is that a feature in studio one? Or is it perhaps an exclusively Ableton feature?
I suggest using busses for your delays, that means you can send them to your reverbs. FX channels don't have sends.
Yeah that’s definitely a valid way of doing it! I personally prefer to use FX channels but it really would be nice if Studio One allowed you to send those to reverb channels. I generally don’t mind using a reverb directly on the fx channel because I don’t have that many different delays set up in a single session.
Excellent thanks!
You’re welcome! So glad you found it helpful!
Thanx, Man... You just bailed me out!!!
So glad you found it useful!
Was wondering for a long time about setting up one plugin for multiple track use but my only issue is that you couldn't control the individual settings on each track using one plugging. I never considered using automation to do that! You are a GOD!
So glad you found the video useful!
Thank you
Happy to help!
maaaaaan..thank you so mach
You’re very welcome!
awesome possum
I've really been struggling with this lately, thank you soo much. Also, one question, say I have recorded 4 guitar tracks and have many plugins, can I render it like this?
Yes you can do it with as many tracks as you like :) And remember, you can always transform back to the original if you want to make some changes to the plugins.
1 and 2, I can't believe this the first-time hearing this.
Perhaps also consider a little judicious use of front-end gear to get as close as you can to the sound you're looking for.
also the buffer size it make a lil bit differents to save cpu in ur pc
has there been any problem with transfering to and from audio and intument tracks you ever heard of? Is it reccomended that you need to save a copy of the midi to something else because of it?
Freeze selected FX but not remove it from the channel, if need do some changes just unfreeze the plug and then freeze again. thats will be amazing feature for Studio One.
The newest version actually added a napping function for plugins
@@DonnyV77 Yeah we know this, but when all plugs need to be use, ex. like the drop they need to wake up. so the load in the cpu will be the same. Anyway is good to have the a napping function.
Muy bien
does it bypass sends? or just replaces the track and reassigns sends
I used to get heavy CPU spikes when using Studio One even if the meter was below 20%.
I start using Reaper and the problems was gone !
Thank you so much. I wanted to know why one should transform instrument tracks to audio tracks, and this explains it clearly. I assume one would do the same for all Superior Drummer 3 drum tracks so that they’re all audio tracks instead?
You’re very welcome! And yep that’s exactly what I do with my individual tracks when I use Addictive Drums. It works beautifully... Here’s a pro tip btw in case you weren’t aware of this... if you record multiple parts on the same track in Superior Drummer (ex. kick + snare + hat) then if you right click on the midi file... there’s an option to “explode pitches to tracks” and that will put every individual element on a separate track which you can then transform those tracks to audio and that allows you to mix it like it’s a real drum kit instead of bouncing the full kit to audio. Hope that helps. Good luck!
@@theindiemusiclab I appreciate this! On a recent song, I was able to assign each track of SD3 to a channel for doing editing for volume and using buses and sends, however, at the top, I don't see a way of getting each track of the drums going across from left to right to show up or "explode"; there's only one drum track, although each drum shows up down below. Know how to make them all there?
Yeah I think I know what you’re talking about. You should still be able to “explode pitches to tracks” even if you’re sending the elements from Superior Drummer to separate channels in your mix window... have you tried right clicking on your drums midi files in your timeline and finding the “explode pitches to tracks” option? I think it’s in one of the subcategories when you right click on any midi file. Hope that answers your question :)
@@theindiemusiclab Paramount Tips ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Get info.. thanks
I understand what you are saying. But, my issue is, I have one drum track that is Modo drummer. Where I'm laying down floor, snare, cymbals, high hat, toms, etc in about a 6 minute song. I'm piecing the song together and I'm about 3 minutes in. Part of the midi track doesn't glitch, but it gets farther in and starts doing it. But I'm not ready to Bounce it until I have it fully complete and edited. And I see viewing the processing, that it's close to 100%. If I uncheck that plugin, it drops to about 20%. So is there any way I can finish editing the complete track without overloading?
Hi. I am a Studio One user and something really strange is just happening to me. I play the song that i am recordering and i cannot see anymore the recordered acoustic guitar tracks but i can still hear them playing. How do i fix it? has anyone ever experience something like this and has solid tips to give me??...Please...
Hello ! I'm having crackling noise issues on studio one, before even having recorded any instrument, as I play on my keyboard. Tried changing sample rates and everything, but the only thing changing is the delay. I use studio one with my laptop , with an Audiobox iTwo with an old midi keyboard plugged into it.
Do you have an idea where the problem could come from ?
Hey Antoine! Thanks for the question. Its hard to say what the problem might be. Is this something that has just started happening recently? Like has everything been running fine in the past?
Good to know. I am using a Native Instrument guitar VST and sometimes when I am playing midi keys it stops working or freezes. Is that CPU problems?
It’s hard to know. I would say if other VST’s seem to be fine and it’s just the Native one that freezes up, that’s probably a sign that it’s a VST problem more than a CPU problem.
@@theindiemusiclab Yea I am thinking so also cause I just bought another AC plug in and no problems..Thx for reply
thank you brotha! the videos of yours i have watched are very simplistic and to the point. Absolutely a complement in todays not so simple society.
Appreciate that very much!
Can you render bus effects also?? Those are consuming most of the cpu usage.
Unfortunately I don’t think there is :(
Hi mate, greetings from Malaysia. Im new to DAW. Im using studio one 5,and whenever i want to record using nameless fortin plugin, it start to crackling so hard. I can't even hear what i play. How do i fix it even before i record track? Hope u get what i mean. Thanks!
Hey Razlan, thanks for the comment! I’m sorry to hear you’re having trouble. I’m not sure what the problem is, but I might be able to help if you record a short video of your DAW acting like that so I can hear and see what you’re talking about. You can reach me via email at: theindiemusiclab@gmail.com . Good luck!
Yeah but what if it’s so bad that you can’t even play a song and it’s crashing the daw? Does anyone know how to clear files straight off of the daw to a external hard drive?
Adjusting buffer size constantly is kind of tedious too 🤷🏻♂️ idk what I’m doing haha
Glitching with 7 tracks 🤪 Mac user hey 😁
I'm working in Windows 10 on a song now with 39 tracks of both midi and audio and it only glitch's when I use Abbey road or the Scheps parallel particle plugins.
Great tips though.
Nah haha I threw this track together real quick for the sake of this tutorial and I was having a really hard time getting it to glitch so I threw a bunch of the most cpu eating plugins I have on the tracks 😂 Mac > PC all dayyy
Thanks for the tips. I’m trying the tender to Audio but it’s taking so long to do it. What do you think the problem is. I have the tracks in audio with plugins on them so to save DSP I want to follow your advice but it’s goes on and on saying transferring file 1 or 3 when I only selected one file. Songs about 4mins something long.
I’m sorry to hear you’re having trouble! It’s probably saying “1 of 3” because you have 3 separate midi clips on that 1 track. I often like to select the clips and hit (command B) on Mac, or just right click and choose “bounce” and then when you transform that track, it’ll render as a single audio clip instead of 3
Although that doesn’t fix the problem of it taking so long to transform to audio. Let me know if the problem persists
@@theindiemusiclab thank you. It worked quick in your tutorial so I thought it will be quick. I’m new to studio one.I do most stuff on reason except mixing due to DSP. I bought studio one last week and used smack attack on 5 drums and bounce compression and sugar plug-in drum bus preset on the drum mixbus and the CPU shoots up to red. Is studio one this slow? My buffer size is high and still it’s slow. It wasn’t like this when I tried protools.
I don’t remember but I think I may have sped that up when I edited the video so it might not be quite as fast as you think. However, it should transform your tracks relatively quickly.
Wow it definitely shouldn’t hit the red so quickly. I’m not sure what to suggest if it’s that bad. Maybe your computer just isn’t fast enough for studio one? In any case, I know how frustrating these things are and it sucks. I’m not sure how to help you in this instance, but I truly hope you find a way to fix the problem.
Hey I was working on a song of mine today and I realized that I misremembered how to merge the midi clips… using the bounce feature does NOT work for midi. You want to use the “merge” feature to connect multiple midi files in a track to one file, and then to connect different audio clips on the same track, THAT’s when I use the bounce feature… so the merge option just works on midi, while the bounce option works on audio… sorry if I confused you!
