Just got to thinking.....
I was just down south visiting a friend. He's a loyal Logic user, looking to pick up a M4 Pro Mac Mini. I brought my laptop with me, and showed him some of my music as they were developed in Studio One. I showed him much of the bundled advantages such as chord track, channel splitting with the ability to parallel track via crossover frequency and other ways to split channels, the new clip launch, and streamlined....well.... everything most of you know and enjoy as well.
Of course, I added some of my third party goodies adding to some of the finesse of what is possible, and tricks of the trade. I will tell you, he looked on, being very impressed and asking if Studio One was cross-platform. Always an interesting and telling indicator of what could happen.
So here we are with Studio One 7.0.2. Whenever, I load a new DAW release, Im walking off the ground remebering the systems I worked with before the inception of DAW's and MIDI. Point being Studio One 2 would still be a very functional tool in my case. Ok, truth be told, version 4 would still be hot poop for my functional needs, even now.
Yet, I hear some for lack of a better word sniffling over such things as transient detection in the wrong place at peaks instead of the begining, and other utterly impossible injustices thrown at them. "The horror." The hundredths of a millisecond between the timing of a transient peak, and its begining are little to quibble about. I've not encountered one issue yet, and moved thousands around. Both percussion, finger-picking, vocals, bass, etc. The only one significant place, it's a potential issue is at the start of an event, and that is easily remedied by extending the event forward. Additional items include a few milliseconds latency, and other .... uhem.... points.
I won't touch on every gripe, nor should I. I realize others have an equal stake in whatever it is they do. But I honestly have to consider if we were once kids on the block who went to the baseball field (with Sammy, the labrador retreiver), that perhaps a few of the kids here would have missed the game winning fly ball, because a rock got in their way or the Sun was in their eyes. Or the......
You get the idea. Before anyone gets huffy, or righteous about what should happen with these appalling release shortcomings with Studio One v7, my point is to create a bit of introspection about what might be more important than the "oops" of quite a complex piece of software. If you feel the need to blast me for being wrong, or on the insatiable "other side" these days, know that I know you can for the most part, get around your beef with some latest version. Make that, any version. Fire away at how absurd I'm being, and make it good. Smile.
(and preferably friendly).
