Studio One 3?

[Novalis]

It was never correct to say - as Novalis did - that there is no such word as the "ss" spelling.

The word buss did not exist, until people started to using it instead of bus.

It couldn't have been more wrong than what you said: that buss is an abbreviation of bus, and was the original spelling.
But I see you are too proud to admit a mistake, so let's just leave it at that, and move on.

No words existed before people started using them. I am honoured that you include buss in the universe of words in this way.

What about your claim that a word doesn't exist if it isn't in the OED. Any further thoughts on that nonsense? Before you move on, like?

Language is a "bottom up" process. Not a top down one. People invent words, they use them, and then other suckers come along and codify and catalogue them - after the fact.

Could you please show me where I claimed that?
Thank you.

It remains that you just seem to be too BIG to simply admit a mistake.

You linked to the Oxford dictionary in one of your posts. Your implication was that if the meaning wasn't listed it was not a word. You attempted to exclude the word on the basis that the only meaning listed for the double ss spelling was in relation to kissing. I suggest you go to a library and open up the fattest organic chem textbook you can find and start working your way through the index. See how many of those items listed are in the OED.

My thinking about the abbreviated form was simply this. If you have two alternate spellings in use and you wish - for some reason - to standardise on one, all else being equal, the briefer of the two - especially in this case where it is a common word - might be the choice you went for - simply on the basis of economy - one word instead of two. That seems to me what the AES types are going for - some standardisation.

You could, on the other hand, decide to go with the spelling that was different from the common word - to make a clear distinction about what kind of "omnibus" you were talking about.

Take the words "its" and "it's". The former doesn't follow the usual rule of having an apostrophe to connote possession. Then you would have "it's" meaning both the possessive of it and the contraction of "it is". So two different spellings are used even though, following the normal rules, both words would use the same spelling and "its" with no apostrophe is kind of a made up word used to remove ambiguity from written text. This distinction is absent in the spoken word and we seem to survive without it.

My point about language usage is that is stupid to say that a spelling used by millions for many decades is "wrong". Even if a new convention is formed, previously accepted spellings are not invalidated, particularly if they are still all over current texts and product descriptions.

This thread got WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY off topic.

What was the announcement? I can't find what it was through all the off-topiciness.

There is no V3, was this:

The ad was the troll of the decade.

No, this is what you interpreted.

I linked to the Oxford dictionary, hoping that somebody would read what the meaning of bus is:
that is has to do with transport, and also carrying a signal. Which is exactly what a bus on a mixer or inside the DAW does.

That's all I got to say to this topic.
Continue to call it buss, if you insist on it. But please at least don't claim that bus is an abbreviation of buss.
Thanks.

Back to Studio One v3 - which will not be released this year anymore, I guess.

[hibidy]

Not likely. When they offer artist for 20.14 then it might be coming up.

@bus: I feel pretty dumb. On studio one it's called BUS so really not sure why I didn't just know that.

Anyways, you've converted someone....

I use S1 since it came out (was it end of 2009?) and am still very happy with it but I also find the overall development very slow to say the least. My greatest disappointment is the lack of a proper controller. For crying out loud, Presonus is a hardware manufacturer and they can't come up with a decent controller in all those years? The best and only decent controller IMO I ever saw is Steinberg's CC121. Before S1 I was on Cubase and had the CC121. It had all the core features in a well build unit and a true plug and play integration. I hate all this 3rd party controllers, it's all rubbish to me. Controllers only make sense when they have true integration with your DAW without spending a day of mad programming. Well, one can only hope...!

CC121? FaderPort? Both units have one fader and having just recently acquired a FaderPort, works great here.

Plug and play in S1, no setup. You can even right click assign any parameter to the fader or knob with Control Link. But yeah, CC121 has more knobs on it.
