Wow... Just realized that, despite paying full price in January 2026, for Fender Studio Pro, I don't even qualify for the first POINT update of the program anymore. So more than I've ever paid for Studio One and less than half a year of support.

What an absolute joke. Last dime this company will ever get from me.

I dunno. I've sent in a support ticket. The language on the website clearly states a YEAR of feature upgrades. I'll wait and see what they respond with.

That doesn't sound right. Are you trying to update from inside Studio Pro? I got the v8 update for free and I had no problem at all with the update, SPro notified me of an update when I launched it, which I installed without issue.

Yeah, I tried within the software and on the website.

Would have preferred a an AI taggable browser ! We need a browser we can tag our samples/instruments/effects ! Thats all , we've been asking for this for years. Fender, don't kill our daw please.

Thanks for the update. However, I hoped for modulators, last thing missing for me in S1. Most additions are very niche ones...
