PreSonus Studio One 4 Professional DAW PreSonus is now shipping Studio One 4 Professional, a significant update to its DAW that combines features of the traditional recording studio with the modern methods of creating beat- and groove-oriented music. The new Harmonic Editing feature give users more freedom to try out harmonies, transpositions, and chord progressions. The Chord Track goes beyond a simple chord track for note data, working with instrument tracks and audio tracks for fast, efficient, multi-dimensional arranging and trans- position. The Chord Selector makes it easier to experiment with new chord patterns and ideas and the built-in chord detection extracts chords from audio or instrument tracks. The combi- nation of Harmonic Editing and Studio One’s Arranger Track and Scratch Pads makes Studio One more flexible for arranging and testing out song ideas. Studio One Patterns integrates with instrument parts and automation, offering more expressive possibili- ties than typical step sequencers. The Musical Editor adds deeper editing features and speeds up the edit- ing workflow while simplifying recurring tasks.
