The GUI, believe it or not, was almost completely redone with dozens and dozens of subtle changes to improve workflow.
It has nice Fender modeled Amp Simulators for both Guitar and Bass.
1) 12/8 and other complex time sigs? I didn't notice that.

2) I did see a mention of Extract Notes and Extract Drums features, does this mean Melodyne is dead?
3) And yes, I'm looking forward to using Fenders bass amp models.

4) From what I understand from Joe Gilder, the fear of the Fender "Suits" coming in and destroying Studio One never materialized. They actually wear blue jeans and are accomplished muscians in their own right and more importantly, understand that the team in Germany know what they are doing regarding GUIs, DAW features, AI and workflow; I guess time will give the final answer on whether they let the dev team continue to do their thing. I wonder if they'll announce anything at NAMM..

5) FWIW, a couple years back Presonus killed their support forum, but no worries, what replaced it, imho, is better. The folks that engage on the new forum are extreamly knowledgable and articulate and operate at very high levels. I've learned a lot from just lurking over there.

Studio One Forum
1) From the manual: In Fender Studio Pro, the beat duration divides a measure into musically meaningful divisions. To select a different beat duration, edit or insert a time signature and select the beat duration in the new time signature selector. There are four beat duration options to choose from (half, quarter, eighth, and sixteenth). By default, the beat duration is set to a quarter note for simple time signatures, and a dotted quarter note for compound time signatures. Alternatively, the current beat duration can be edited by clicking on the new beat duration indicator next to the tempo in the transport bar:

2) No Melodyne is not dead by any stretch of the imagination. It is still used for tuning, harmonizing and tempo mapping.

3) The Amp Sims are a higher quality than what was in Studio One but they're not the same algorithms as the high resolution $1800 Fender Tone Master.

4) It definitely has the fender branding everywhere now, But is developed by the same German developers as always And still heavily focuses on workflow.

5) yes well I was a moderator in the old forum for seven years. Many of my handbooks and deeper explain manuals did not get transferred to the new forum. The new form is run by customers just like you and I (Lukas) with QA guy from Presonus Software Limited (Ari) . Presonus like all software companies with the exception of PGM and Reaper have given up support via forums Instead use social media as it is much faster and hits a larger audience. i'm glad you like it.
