Region Markers?

[sonicdiscovery]

Hi, . I'm just adding my comment that is there a way to save my region selections to loop? Each time I want to loop a section for mixing, I have to manually click the all the audio regions. This would be a great feature to add to Studio One, that is: Being able to create region markers, regardless of how many edits/splices you do in the audio wave forms. One click for that region marker and you can loop that region no matter how many edits were done in that region. It's a pro tools feature I use extensively.

With the current feature set for Studio One, I have to click all the regions I need every time, but clicking the regions gets time consuming every time.

I am hoping that Studio One can add this feature so once I create a region marker, it will always be available with one click for that region marker.

Region Markers could be it's own event horizontal track line, like the arranger or cord tracks.

I submitted a Studio One Support Ticket and they have been great, but it looks like there is not a way to do this yet?

Thank you.

This is called Arranger Sections in Studio One/Studio Pro. You can loop sections in the same way as any other events or event selections.

The Arranger sections are great for arranging, but I was hoping for region markers that are independent to the arrangement. Once I create the Arranger Sections, If I move or edit the wave form, the arrangement follows, which is what I do not want to have happen on for the region markers.

In Pro Tools you can set region markers that are independent from the arrangement. When I mix, I create regions for mixing purposes which need to be independent from the Arrangement sections.

If there was an optional ruler for region markers, like regular markers that would be awesome. I can use Arranger Markers/Sections for arrangement, but also have region markers which are completely independent from everything else.

Here is sos article about the region markers and why they are a great tool independent of the arrangement:

Thank you and I do really like using Studio One and am transitioning almost completely to Studio One from Pro Tools, but the memory region ability is a great feature that I hope Studio One will incorporate, independent of the Arranger Section.

You can still move them while holding Cmd+Alt which won't affect the arrangement.

But I can see how the concept of additional markers that have a length could be a helpful addition, especially in combination with export options.

Thank you, I will try that. Hopefully region markers might be added someday

Or... maybe just the ability to have more than one Arrangement track? And the possibility to lock a selected track against inadvertent editing.

You can effectively create a new track and designate where you would want the regions (or loops) to be, by drawing out the events. I think its really just that simple. Call the track "Regions" if you so choose.
Then, select events (effectively regions) so that loops folow selected event(s). You'd have your region loops. You could even name the events.

IIRC, that's the way we did it pre Arranger Sections

Maybe Scratch Pads is the way to go.

Another idea, I had remembered commenting on many moons ago is to have multiple loops instead of just the one. This way preferred loop areas for editing, or auditioning could exist instead of always using just one, that might br positioned at a crucial place. Then difficult to redraw or return to.

Could be awesome!

The arrangement track can handle multiple set loop areas to return to, but not be overlapping. Multiple loops themselves would solve that.

Ideas are wonderful. Now if we could only get the ball rolling. ; )
