PreSonus Studio One 4 Artist – Audio and MIDI Recording/Editing Software (Educational, 10 to 24 Seats, Download)

PreSonus Studio One 4 Artist offers an integrated approach to recording music, from tracking, to mixing, to mastering, and distribution. Featuring a flow oriented, drag-and-drop interface, the software is built for intuitive use, speed, and efficiency.
This latest version provides some substantial updates including updated pattern and drum editors and updates to PreSonus’s virtual instruments; Impact XT, Sample One XT, and Presence XT. The drum and pattern editors update the traditional step sequencing method by placing patterns inside of tracks. No longer will you have to open a sequencer within a sequencer, as all pattern data lives inside tracks on your arrangement page, allowing for fast and effective editing with same ease as standard MIDI and audio tracks. What’s more there are several per-step options including velocity editing, 10 levels of repeat for stutter effects, a probability algorithm that adds variety by selectively dropping out notes, and per-step automation for all automatable parameters.Studio One 4 is robust enough for the most complex productions, delivering full audio and MIDI recording and editing capabilities with 30 native effects plug-ins, 5 virtual instruments, and nearly 4GB of bundled content. There are no limits on track count, plug-in instantiations, or editing features. PreSonus Studio One 4 Artist is compatible with any ASIO, Windows Audio, or Core Audio compliant audio interface, including the entire line of PreSonus interfaces.

Note:
Available to qualified educational institutions, this site license version is priced per seat for 10 to 24 seats.
