Hi Lukas,Hey everyone,
I'm currently working on my next Studio One/Studio Pro add-on and I'm at a point where I'd like to involve you directly in the process.
Some features are already implemented, others are still in the concept phase - and instead of deciding everything on my own, I'd love to hear what would actually be most useful in your daily workflow.
The add-on focuses on editing, navigation, and cleanup tasks - essentially a collection of workflow tools and commands designed to speed up everyday actions, especially when using keyboard shortcuts or macros.
Here's an early draft of the toolbar for the add-on:
View attachment 3292
The add-on will be compatible with Fender Studio Pro 8, as well as Studio One 6 and 7. (Some functionality may only be available in FSP 8.)
Like my other Studio One/Pro add-ons, it will be available at: https://s1toolbox.com/studioonescripts
Studio One Scripts | Studio One Toolbox (Fender Studio Pro)
Powerful Studio One and Fender Studio Pro scripting extensions developed by Lukas Ruschitzkas1toolbox.com
The poll is at the top of this thread. See the descriptions below for details!
Pick up to 4 features that would be most useful to you.
Note: This doesn't mean the top X will 100% make it in - but your feedback will heavily influence what goes into the 1.0 version.[/B]
Feature Ideas
- Track Markers / Time-based Track Notes
Create markers directly on individual tracks (instead of only using the global marker track), for example to add notes directly on a guitar or vocal track.
Includes a dedicated list view to quickly navigate between all Track Markers.
- Save & Recall Track Selection
Quickly save a track selection and recall it at any time - useful for jumping between different working setups in larger projects.
- Instrument Favorites (Quick Insert)
Create a list of your favorite instrument plug-ins and access them via a fast selection dialog.
Insert instruments in seconds - either with just a few clicks or entirely via keyboard.
- Reverse & Shuffle Events
Quickly reverse or reorder selected events to experiment with variations, sound design, or creative rearrangements.
- A/B Track Group Testing
Create and recall groups of tracks for quick A/B comparisons.
Easily solo, mute, or switch between different track groups to compare arrangements or mixes. (Concept still evolving)
- Cursor-Based Event Selection
A fast way to make precise edits without manual selection. Select events relative to the cursor position:
- Select Events before Cursor
- Select Events under/at Cursor
- Select Events after Cursor
- Auto-Colorize Tracks
Automatically assign colors to tracks based on their names - for example, all drums, bass, or vocals instantly grouped visually.
- Sort Tracks by Name / Color / etc
Quickly organize your session by sorting tracks alphabetically or by color for better overview and structure.
- Split Events at Markers / Arranger Sections
Automatically split events at marker positions or arranger sections - for restructuring or preparing arrangements.
- Select Events by Color (for color-coded events)
Quickly select all events with the same color - either globally or limited to specific tracks. Useful for audio editing if you use colors to group or organize different types of events in your session.
Already Implemented / Planned
These are features that are already implemented and very likely to be part of the 1.0 version:
… and many more smaller tools and commands.
- Batch Track Renaming
Rename multiple tracks at once (set names, add prefixes/suffixes, search & replace).
- Create Markers & Sections from Selected Events
Instantly generate markers or arranger sections based on selected events.
- Advanced Event Movement (Move all selected events to cursor)
Move selected events directly to the cursor position with a single shortcut.
- Advanced Event Trimming via Shortcuts
Fast trimming workflows using keyboard shortcuts for precise editing.
- Arranger Section Features
Add arranger sections at the cursor, create section presets, and automatically generate arranger sections and markers from selected events.
- Goto commands for Bars, Events and Markers
Jump to specific bars, events and markers. This can be used via keyboard shortcuts or in macros ("Goto Bar 5 and add Arranger Section with name [X]" etc).
- Fade in / out Events
Add fades to events with predefined length/type/bend (for usage in macros). This way you can create "fade presets".
- Track Color Tools
Quickly assign colors, create gradients, or generate unique color variations across tracks.
- Bypass / Activate Plug-ins via Shortcuts or Macros
Quickly bypass or (de)activate plug-ins in specific channels without using the mouse or even without opening the console at all - can be used for fast A/B checks, workflow shortcuts or live performance.
- Focus Workspaces commands
Commands to focus specific workspaces in Studio One/Studio Pro like Arrangement, Browser, Editor, Console. Mainly for using macros.

I'll keep you updated here as development progresses - really curious to see what you all pick.
Thanks a lot!

I appreciate your efforts. To be honest, more than anything could you try to find a way to stabilize the Console View? The tracks commonly resort themselves and you have to drag them all back where they belong. Could you maybe make a LOCK CONSOLE VIEW toggle? Please?
Track markers- time based notes is a super idea! +1
Batch track renaming is helpful +1
Track colors- the most useful feature would be to allow the HIGHLIGHT color to be selected from a separate menu- you literally cannot see to edit with most of the highlight colors at present.
Thanks again!

BTW Studio Pro 8 is the best version of Studio One yet. You guys did a really nice job.
