From what I can see in my MyPresonus account: It looks like they have dropped the upgrade price under the “magical” threshold of 100 $/€. So imho it’s a solid upgrade for that price. But this is yet to be confirmed.

Well, I have the 7.2.3. And the info text says "all updates" included for one year. If I take them by their word: they always said, that any new version within the timespan will be included. And before the regular one year renewal was $/€149. So this is my assumption.
But I agree: let's wait for official announcements before buying.

From Reddit:
"This seems to be a late christmas gift. My 12 month of support ended on November 16th, 2025. I'm on Studio One 7.2 now. My.presonus.com list Fender Studio Pro 8 as a product I own."

Morning all.
So the little voice in my head was right
Wow. Big action today. Nothing in my account - assuming because I am on a perpetual "free" zone right now.
But - I just logged into me Fender Account - and see everything is now tricked out in there:
And - I just saw new versions of Lead Architect and Cinematic Lights drop into my account tho...
My upgrade price has dropped to $99USD/$125CDN - so that is a good thing.
Need to study these release notes - but even at first glance - I am not exactly being wowed.

I'm really digging the channel overview à la Live and the new arrangement overview. Both are great additions.

Also - no sign anywhere of the much anticipated Native Instruments MKIII v2 Firmware integration either.
That one - I was actually waiting for. Could be time for a pass for now.

Those coffee grains were pretty accurate "old shoe".
In passing, I notice the Announcement panel has gone from the top of the forum, the Fender NDA must be a ball breaker for one or two folk.

The results of the new 'Extract Drums' feature.
Why have they never been able to get audio to MIDI right? This is genuinely the one thing i need S1 (or FP) to do right and i'd never even mention another DAW ever again
EDIT: Play around with it for about 30 mins now. To me other than the worse UI, any changes made (including addition of fender amps) are not relevant to my needs. I was really hoping they would fix Audio to MIDI and i got pretty excited reading the Release Notes earlier seeing their Beat Extract/drum replacement new feature. Screenshot shows this doesn't work well at all. This is literally the only feature i need but disheartened that many iterations later, still not been addressed.
I think i'm going to stick to S17 or commit to Cubase

I couldn't agree more.
Just out of interest, do you use SO's score writing feature? After having used Sibelius for decades, and despite its many, many problems, I've still not managed to find a better alternative. I glanced at SO's built-in thing, but it looked a bit basic.

Also just reading some Reddit crosstalk - it appears (NOT confirmed) that if you purchase an upgrade - you get not one - but two years worth of updates.
If this is true - I may just pull the trigger on this after all...

Anyone else disappointed with the rebrand? I know Studio One had kind of been losing ground in terms of brand recognition to other DAWs recently, but I don't think Fender Studio Pro is the answer. Just the fact that Fender Studio is more like a GarageBand type of thing makes me think of Fender Studio Pro as a less professional option. Even though I know it's ultimately the same thing under the hood...

Not saying it was on the website.
Some users are indicating they popped for the upgrade and then - back in their shiny new Fender accounts - their "updates" renewal date has now displays 01-13-2028
Which is magically two years of updates and not one.
Also not saying this is advertised or even mentioned anyway - but some folks are reporting they are getting this.
