Ya, what causes that? I get the same sense, even when every part of me feels that feature integration like this should feel like progress.

Maybe if they made it so you could link your online system if choice it would seem less hokey?

Well I guess somebody forgot to tell Teddy Riley this, now didn't they?

I know what you mean. I was about to buy a Porsche 911 and then I noticed that they have the option of a navigation system in them. WTF??? I, as a professional race car driver, am disgraced that they would pander to the everyday, average person by stooping so low as to put the option of a GPS system in their fine automobiles.

See how stupid your comment sounds?

Yeah, you're the intelligent one.

If you think Nimbit on a DAW has the same utility factor as a navigation system on a 911, then you're either as dumb as stick or the ultimate Studio One fanboy.

Probably both.

Let's use your analogy but put it into proper context:

I'm in the high-performance car business. The leaders are the Lamborghini Gallardo, Ferrari 458 Italia and the McLaren MP4-12C Spider. My peers, whom I compete against, drive these cars.

Presonus comes out with a new entry in the market. It looks great. It has a smoother ride, better suspension and a fuel-injection system that's superior to those others in the class. They call it a Pro model, to compete against the Lamborghini, Ferrari and McLaren.

But, it's missing a few things. It lacks a turbo engine, has 16" wheels and a steel chassis. But, it's new. Many people see it's incredible potential. Everyone makes allowances because, it's new; the next version will certainly catch up.

But, for some reason, the turbo never happens. It still has 16" wheels and a steel chassis. A high percentage of owners write in asking, then begging for them to add 20" wheels, a carbon-fiber composite chassis and a twin-turbo so they can compete against their peers.

There's rumors (most among Presonus owners on the Presonus forum) that, at this upcoming car show, this will be the time where they join the leaders and, by applying the same ingenuity of their fuel-injection system and suspension, maybe even come up with the superior design.

There's a press release. At the car show, Presonus is going to have a live feed of their upcoming "new" features. There's a buzz among those interested.

A second press release (a whole page) announces their big feature---spinning rims! Wouldn't they look great---spinning rims!

The fanboys (like you) come out. Hey, spinning rims are great. Spinning rims are a fantastic move! For those a little dissappointed, they say you don't have to use the spinning rims. How could you NOT like spinning rims?

When you look at it in it's proper context, see how stupid your comments look?

No idea about this "Nimbit" thing but I'm not sure if this is a important point for professionals to give Studio One a try?
IMO it would be more useful to have some basic stuff working like Sysex support.

I didn't upload the V2 but I think the soundcloud tool could be usefull, just sharing the track with friends "how this mix sounds in your monitors?". Don't think I'll usse the nimbit tool, cause if I have time to share my track, fix some issues on the mix, I don't need to sell it directly from my DAW but it's certainly usefull for amateurs who record their own songs and wanna sell it online (Do people buy music online?).

I'm not a pro like many here but I work into studio one for 2 months and I really like it (and I'll certainly go from producer to professional version).

I gotta admit, I am no match for you. You used "fanboy" twice! That word can end *any* argument so decisively. Gosh, you're good.

I'd rather see them put that money in accelerating development and customer support for the DAW itself...

Have many here use the $120.00 yearly version of Nimbit?

They started in a fantastic direction, but for it to really become a big player in professional music production, they need to listen to their user base and fix what needs fixing soon, until enthusiasm about a new product turns into frustration because its not moving forward in the right direction.

I get it just fine. And, I'm certainly not alone.



Thank you for your insightful contribution, though. It really added a lot to the discussion.

Looks like people haven't got the message that this is not affecting general development of S1.

If it did, and this was the only new feature in.....say v.2.5 or v.3.0 - then i would understand. But that does not seem to be the case...


But right now, seems people are trying to make a storm in a glass of water.

Sorry man. Those are just things artists say for free stuff.

Q: What is it about Waves tools that make them such an important part of your arsenal?

A: I have had many hit records using Waves. “No Diggity,” the whole Blackstreet album, first, second, third, the Guy albums 2, 3 and 4, and on all my re-mixes I use Waves. Michael Jackson’s “Dangerous” is through Waves. I mixed on the SSL and because we didn’t have enough tracks to mix everything on the SSL on Studers, all of the vocals and all of the smooth keys and Michael’s backgrounds are all Waves and Pro Tools.

Who gives a shit about who uses what DAW?
A DAW is a DAW is a DAW, if it does what you need you need use it otherwise don't, that's all there is to it.

So Tedd Riley got free Waves stuff. Also, it seems the interview is quite a few years old.

Stupid marketing ploys, S1 will probably never make it into big studious, why do they care, the 40,000 home studios paying $300 for their software as opposed to the 10-15,000 pro studious that probably wouldn't, where would your marketing strategies be aimed.
I am just upset with all this new crappy add-ons because I purchased their flagship, the studiolive 24.4.2 mixer and I have emailed every department in the company starting over a month ago and haven't heard a word back from them, I posted a negative comment on one of their youtube video tutorials that then seem to be spending most of their money and time on, and within 20 minutes I got an email response that I was blocked from posting on their productions and that they are very busy and trying to expand to keep up with customer service delays.
I love the mixer and wouldn't trade it for anything, but our mobile recording work is going to expand soon, and instead of dealing with a company that won't deal with me I think I may go another way.
