Fender Studio Pro 8 Released

Maybe it's because I don't do orchestral stuff, but I don't know why this is a big feature?
How is it different from making a template with all the stuff you will use?
How many people work 2-3 sessions at the same time? I never do.

Maybe I'm missing its point.

I have no use for it either but how I understood this feature it is made for people working with different sessions (open) which share similar instruments...

The main point is that without this feature and you have session "A" loaded, all the used instruments and FX are already loaded, haven taken time to load, already take a lot of RAM, etc...

Let´s say you have 5 different versions of the same song and you want to compare them side by side...
Before this means 5 times the same song completely and fully loaded with each song has it´s own instances of the (in this case) same instruments used...
5 times loading time
5 times CPU use even on idle
5 times RAM usage
etc...

With this new feature you could make all of the instruments being shared between this 5 seperate sessions and when you open them all =
1 time loading time for the instruments
1 time CPU use even on idle
1 time RAM usage
...

As I said... it´s nothing I would ever use but there seem to be others for whom this might be a biggie...especially with many orchestral libraries which are known for being RAM heavy and taking quite a bit of time to load...

I think it's time we need to come up with an actual list guys, that list our feature requests and tell Fender hey dude, this is what we want. They destroyed the forum/active petitions for requests for many years..

Right now this whole AI thing is starting to make me fear Fender doesn't really know what their target audience wants. Most of us are converts from the older larger DAWs, cubase & pro tools ( artists/recording/mix engineers ) but somehow in the last few years this daw has had an identity crisis. Wasting time and money on trying to gauge the next big hit, that's exactly what most of us are probably against anyways. The youtube whatever these guys are called, do not need to set the trend for us as a collective group of professionals/semi professionals, whatever.

My take has been the same thing over n over, we need a better browser that we can tag our audio samples/instruments/efx. ( Not some I'll pay you monthly thing for a feature like splice )
I know there's guys that have been asking for automation features for years as well. We're not asking for highly complex features, they are all very reasonable.
