Studio Pro 8 SSL 360

Hi all,
Today I'm sitting down to road test this new version.
As I work with SSL 360 on each channel I wanted to test the functionality to ensure it works like it did in v7.

Summary

It doesn't. where the name of the track is displayed in 360 is blank. Clicking the 360 channel should select the same channel in Studio Pro, it is hit and miss if it auto selects the corresponding channel in Studio Pro.
There is also a delay from touching the 360 fader for the corresponding fader in SPro to move.

Can anyone else who has 360 central to their workflow please test the functionality to see if you are experiencing issues. I think the reason for the poor intercommunication is due to SSL 360 referring to Studio One in the DAW setup section, which as we know doesn't exist by name.
I'll be back to v7 for now
 
Hey Stew,
I'm reading tight integration, and syncing with SSL 360 when used with PT, and Cubase. I don't think you'll find many users if even one in this forum using a SSL360. Did you purchase the 360 or are you trialing it? Its a beautiful piece of kit. Nonetheless, you had naming across the scribble stips previously and now you dont. I wonder if the narrow track width and grouping selections work like they do on the PT with the SSL 360 as well. Anyhow, its good you noted this and it should be picked up by Lukas to be passed on to command central. It's seriously important. If you get no user verification, pass a message to Lukas.
I'm sure it will get the attention it deserves.
Cheers.

Hi Loke, I'm not running the SSL control surfaces, I'm just using the 360 software dedicated to my touch screen. Fender Studio Pro first needs Mackie Control adding in the Options page of FSP8 with midi send and receive both set to SSL MIDI V PORT 1. Doing that enables the SSL 360 transport bar to control FSP8 transport. In Studio One 7 the track names were displayed in 360 but they are missing now that we have FSP8. Track selecting from 360 is not working properly in FSP8 whereas it was perfect in SO7. I think this may be a support request to SSL

Yeah, so an issue nonetheless when passed onto the 360.

I can confirm that I'm having the same issue with SSL 360. It's all screwed up!!!

Thanks for confirming this, I'm glad I'm not the only one. I think we need to report this to SSL and also to Fender/Presonus

I have submitted a ticket to SSL.

Yep! Noticing the same things here. I also contacted Fender and SSL support about the issue. Fender said they are passing this info over to the DEV's and SSL said it is a new DAW so........ Oh, and by the way I am using the SSL controller.

Thanks. I hope SSL realises that it's only a name change and the architecture under the hood is still Studio One. Hopefully a minor tweak rather than an overhaul of the SSL code base.

Yeah, you would think so. Hopefully it will be fixed in the next update
 
On my home setup, where I have a problem with 360 talking to S1v7 (no track colours, names, or working transport control from the 360 window). I have exactly the same issue with FSP8. But I do have fader control in every direction (including echoing on my X-Touch One), so something's working!
 
I also talked to SSL about this issue a couple of days ago, and let them know this was still Studio One with a new name and update. They said they had been given no warning or advance notice on it, but they would get to work to fix the issues. In the meantime, I was pleased to see that Fender Pro Studio installed alongside Studio One Pro, 7, not replacing it as I had feared it would. So I still have a DAW to use until they get the bugs worked out.

That's good to hear, hopefully we won't have to wait too long for resolution

Studio One has never (in my experience) overwritten previous whole number versions, so you could have every version on your computer if you wanted!
 
I can verify that SSL 360/UF8/UF1 do not work correctly with Fender Studio Pro.
From SSL support :
"We are aware of the issue, we have not brought support to Fender Studio Pro 8 yet and don't currently have an exact timeframe for when we will."

Wow, isn't that just lovely. Thanks for posting. I don't have one of those but my Partner In Music does. He is wanting
to jump from V6 to Ver8. Between him and I we hobble along so this type of stuff does not help. Hopefully, it's resolved
sooner than later. My buddy wanted Version 8 for the new drummer thingy in hopes to just lay down a
quick beat & tempo to get at playing his Keyboard quick, fast and in a hurry. Version 6 it is (for him) a while until resolved.

That's really disappointing. I'll stick on Studio One until they do fix it
 
Just as I found out about Studio Pro, I emailed my guy at SSL - he mentioned not to update at this time and they are working on it.
I've talked to SSL peeps in Nashville and I will tell ya they are very responsive and helpful. I use all 3 of their controllers and they are awesome. I fully expect a good update coming soon and then I will update too. (I wish I knew about this forum before today) Wondering about Logic's upcoming version - but studio One, er Studio Pro is still the best DAW for my workflow and compositions.
