Yo, G, I believe I speak for myself and countless others when I say, THANK YOU for taking the time out of your life to help us all by sharing your knowledge and helping us learn. I know I appreciate it very, VERY much, and I know I'm not alone in that appreciation. It would be rad to meet you one day! Keep doin what you do and bein awesome, bro. Peace.
@shawnstrang7015 If being real is being unfun, I don't care. Your opening line is "I believe I speak for myself and countless others." You don't speak for me, buddy, because I know that these tutorials are paid advertising only. If that little truth bursts your bubble, then you're going to hate to hear what I have you say about Santa Clause and the tooth fairy.
Gregor, this is something that takes a while to get down right, especially if you are like me, using quite a few tracks, and quite a few plugins on guitars, vocals, drums, piano, etc. I wrestled with it for awhile, but I think I have found a viable method for my work. Thanks, very helpful
Really helpful, Gregor, thank you! Coming from ather DAWs and still needing to use them occasionally, I assumed that dropout protection simply disabled some of the highest CPU hungry devices when the load got too high. Therefore, I was a little confused the other day when I noticed the effect of some plug-ins could still be heard, even though their activation icon had turned green. I guess if I’d read the manual, I could’ve found that out for myself but you’ve just done the work for me. Top quality information as usual.👍🙂
The different block size for monitoring and for playback is mind blowing for me even tho I'm mainly a guitarist using S1 for years. Can't wait to try it!
you will find it handy and sometimes necessary, if you are using a lot of plugins on guitars and vocals. It took me a while to figure out the best settings for my work.
@@perrythomasmusic3709 I've actually tried it, even got the blue z mode and even tho I can play with minimal latency on block size 64 and max dropout protection my cpu goes really high so unfortunately it's not really useful for me.. Luckily my audio interface has this "bug" that allows me to play through standalone vst host such as BC Patchworks with minimal buffer size while having a really big and heavy latency session open in S1 with max buffer size so it's even better for me than the method of this blue z or green z modes I was curios if I could manage it to work to ditch the BC Patchworks to play in real time with the session's (mix ready) tones instead of having a slight difference chain while tracking
First off, thanks so much for the tuts! I especially love the Studio One Minute joints you do. I'm a Pro Tools convert and every time I watch one of your videos, I miss Avid just a little more...please keep um coming! 👊🏾
Very helpful Gregor, thanks a lot. Funny, I didn’t know any of this. What I tend to do is set the block size low for tracking and if there was noise or clicks and pops I would temporarily disable a few of the plugins to free up CPU!
Brilliant video. Thank you so much for explaining that. I've been using studio One now for the last 2 and 1/2 years and I could never understand the device protection.
Thanks Gregor. I have a really slow computer, and What I've been doing is just recording with no distortion, reverb or other plug ins, and I get no noticeable lag. Am I missing something other than the benefit of hearing my sound processors as I record? I don't understand why everyone doesnt do this, accept that they want to hear the finished sound from the start. Thanks
Of course, im talking about guitar and voc, i still have a very hard time getting the keyboards to time up using this method. Or maybe Im just not used to keyboards? I doubt that's it.
So should you set the dropout protection to maximum when you export the final wav? I am noticing a difference in sound compared to playback set to min vs max but not sure if it's a good or bad thing lol
Good video, I can't hear guitar effects out of Ampire, in my audio set up page in Studio one 5 Artist, the option for " use native low latency monitoring instead of hardware monitoring" is grayed out and I can't activate it" please advice how to fix this issue
I am having an issue, when I go to playback my audio after I add inserts such as a fat channel or something it sounds good, then when I pause and rewind the inserts are still on but the audio sounds like there aren’t any inserts on there. I I have to turn the inserts off and then on again for me to hear them.. it’s frustrating. I need help please!
still experiencing some pretty bad latency issues in my software and i have my apollo on 8 samples and its still at 8.07 / 356 samples. is there any way to fix this?
I have a few hardware devices that allow Audio and MIDI via USB. This is, of course, way more convenient than having to hook up everything with individual TRS and DIN MIDI cables to run them via Interface. However, the only option to address multiple devices I've run across so far is using the Asio4all driver. The problem with that is that I can only set one device block size for all of my I/O devices. I had no problem running my Interface at device block size 64 samples with medium dropout protection, but running it through Asio4all requires a higher device block size to run smoothly. Are there other, more elegant solutions to this? I love being able to send Audio to and from my hardware via dedicated outputs and sequencing them with Studio One, but I'd love to do it without the drawback of giving up on true low latency monitoring of, say, my Microphone or guitar inputs.
hi Gregor! Maybe you can help..every time I plug guitar and opt recording button in channel, I get mumbling ( high bass) noise . This get worst when I add effect like Ampire (distorsion) , end it's sounds like tractor. The problem is that this sound is heard on recording . If you give some sugestions, I would appreciate a lot.Thanks
Thanks buddy, how does this affect the use of hardware during mixing, I find myself always having to raise the monitoring block size from 32/64 to 512 or higher even when processing is on medium or high to prevent CPU spikes on the highest specs Mac Mini M1 as well. Thanks
Hi Gregor. I love wathing your videos. Always very informative and a good balance between pace and detail. One question about this topic. If I set the Device Block size low (say 64 samples) to keep the recording monitoring latency low, If I set the Process Block Size high for plalayback devices, would the tracks on playback (previously recorded instuments etc.) be delayed due to higher latency compared to the low latency reecording monitoring? That is, will I listed to the other track out of time and then record a new track at low latecy, causing the new track and the already existing tracks to be slightly out of time with each other?
Hi Rob, thanks for your kind words! Rest assured that monitoring latency offsets are completely compensated, no matter which Block Size / Dropout Protection setting you choose. Meaning, anything that you record will be timed just like it was during the recording process. -GBY
What I want to know is, In Mac OS Ventura, How do I use my Audio interface (Focusrite Clarett 8prex Thunderbolt) for input and use a "Multi-Output Device" for "Playback Device". Every time, I select "Multi-Output Device" for "Playback Device" it swaps to "Multi-Output Device" for both "Recording Device" and "Playback Device" and it is the only option in "Recording Device". Any Ideas? Thanks!
I would be happy if window could have those record and playback devices independent!to get all My M32 usb Live channels and using Presonus usb 96 as for listening! And broadcast!
Hi Gregor, eine Frage : ich hab mir einen Roland f08 gkauft. Ich habe die S1 /4 mit einem angeschlossenem UR22 von Steinberg. Kann ich die Souds vom Roland via USB output über den PC und S1 an das Audio interface senden lassen oder muss ich ein 6,3 Stereo in den EIngang des UR 22 stecken um den roland zu hören? Danke Grüße
Try 64 samples block size and Dropout Protection "Minimum" - that's usually the sweet spot. If you need to free up some CPU resources, try increasing the Dropout Protection to "Medium" or "High" instead of increasing the device block size. -GBY
i have an 11th gen i5 using a Scarlet 2i2 interface. My latency is 12ms on 256 blocksize. Is that too high? I noticed if i go lower than 256 then ill start getting pops and clicks in the recorded audio. Is there anything i can do about this? Or i just have to save up and get a more powerful computer
Can you explain why so much of my work isn't saved? Why do I make countless adjustments to compressors and EQs, and then come back to everything factory reset when I open the file again? Why is your software malfunctioning in such a major way?
This is totally unrelated to this video but I have a question about my ATOM midi controller. When I have an instrument track up and a pad is showing on screen, if I press a virtual pad with my mouse the sound assigned to that pad sounds off. If I hit the same pad with my ATOM midi controller the assigned sound comes up but also a keyboard sound comes up with it. In other words Im getting two sounds and pressing only 1 pad (example : I have an instrument track with a preset Drums. works great if I hit the virtual pads but adds a keyboard, (organ, synth etc.) to the drum sounds. How do I change that .
Hi Bob, sounds like you have multiple Instrument Tracks monitor armed at once (indicated by the blue speaker icon being on more than once in the Track List). You could turn the additional ones off with a left click, or, alternatively, assign specific Midi inputs to each Instrument Track, so that they wouldn't both get triggered by the same input (in this case, your ATOM). Hope this is helpful. -GBY
From manual: If using a supported DSP-enabled audio interface, you have the choice to use its onboard Hardware Low Latency Monitoring (and hardware DSP-based effects when available, as with the PreSonus Studio 192) for incoming audio inputs, or to use the Native Low Latency Monitoring that Studio One provides. Enable "Use native low latency monitoring instead of onboard DSP" to use Native Low-Latency Monitoring, or disable it to use Hardware Low-Latency Monitoring.◦Note that when using Hardware Low-Latency Monitoring to monitor an audio input, Insert FX do not function on the related Channel, since the audio input is being monitored before it reaches Studio One. If Insert FX are needed while tracking, use Native Low-Latency Monitoring instead. To do this, navigate to Studio One/Options/Audio Setup/Processing (macOS: Preferences/Audio Setup/Processing) and enable the "Use native low-latency monitoring instead of hardware monitoring" option.
Hey ! I have a Question to you Studio One 6 pro users: If upgrade from my Studio One pro. version 5 to Studio One 6 pro. will I have both version 5 and 6 on my computer or vill it change to version 6 ?
This is not the same thing - Block Size and Buffer Size are interchangeable terms, but Dropout Protection is a unique Studio One design that deserves its own name. -GBY
