Why did you leave Studio One?

[chk071]

The Add-Ons are still listed in the PreSonus Shop in the Studio One DAW application.

Interesting. Hope it stays like that, and that it's just their web shop.

And, they should communicate it.

Can you provide a link to where they are available to buy?

All the ones I click on say they are only available in Studio One+.

As he said, you can access them from inside Studio One, in the shop tab. Looks like an oversight to me tbh, since on the website it clearly states that it's Studio One+ only. Or they messed up the website for their PreSonus stuff.

That statement you quoted doesn't make me triggered. It just means I think you're stupid.

Of course any new development has an effect on existing product lines as resources aren't endless. And of course a CEO explicitly voicing his expectation on something else than a full fledged production DAW also has an effect on the direction of the product department.

But boy, you don't seem to be open for arguments so perhaps you should go do some music. And perhaps get support on anger management.

Totally agree - but maybe they now overplay their hand. If I would make money from the tool, I wouldn't hesitate to pay the annual subscription fee. But I'm a 100% hobbyist, dabbling with my gear every 4 weeks or during holidays. So paying for an upgrade during a sale (usually still less than 100 bucks) for two years (between major releases) is acceptable for me, while paying annual $179 is not. That's an easy decision.

So what? No-one is making you pay a subscription. I'll bet you have never purchased any of the products they have made exclusive to subscription, have you? So why would you give a f**k?

Sure, but, the way it already is now is that you HAVE to subscribe if you want to get the addons (meaning all plugins, sample sets and other content Presonus ever released) for Studio One.

So what? There are already plenty of exclusives to subscribers and that hasn't annoyed you, has it? you're complaining about something you never intended to buy anyway, which is just f**king stupid. If you had been interested, you'd already own that stuff and you still wouldn't care.

This shows how little perspective you have on the subject. Adobe charge US$660 per year for a Creative Cloud subscription, Autodesk charge US$1875 a year for 3DS Max or Maya (not both). That's the kind of money companies charge their professional users. US$179 a year is definitely more the sort of price you'd expect as a hobbyist.

... it certainly looks like they want to push people into subscribing

I don't see that at all. The shit they give to subscribers is exactly that - shit. If it was offered to me for free, I still wouldn't be interested in it.

I still uninstalled it because they've clearly stated where they are going, and that's not the destination on my ticket.

No, they haven't and only a complete moron would read it that way. You guys clearly have no f**king idea about how the world works.

1. First you project your ignorance onto this entire forum, and now your dissatisfaction onto me...

And yet he still manages to appear more knowledgeable than you. Go figure?

To me it seems like a half-arsed effort to keep corporate customers happy. If they wanted to push people to Studio One+, they'd be offering existing users 3 or 6 months free or for $10 or something, to compensate them for the money they've already spent (like Adobe did). OTOH, $179 per year is a very attractive price for a new user, much better than the up-front cost of a Pro license.

Ok,I see it now thanks.

... or the update which removes them in the perpetual version is yet to come.

In fact I have: bought "Ampire High Density Pack" and "Porta Cassette" Console Emulation.

Yes. That's why I said people need to buy the add-ons they want ASAP, before they close the loopholes and force subscriptions to access them.

In thaqt case, you got what you wanted so, again, why do you give a f**k?

Or maybe Presonus don't want to f**k existing users around and are trying to get new users onto subscription from the get-go? Or is it much easier to believe they f**ked up, rather than that you are misinterpreting their actions?

Studio One 7 will be released 10-2024?

No problem. Would have been nice if PreSonus had communicated about it, so we wouldn't have to speculate. Not liking how they are handling this, reminds me of Cakewalk.

I'm not a fan of subscriptions, but I thought that presonus handled it well as you still have the choice. You can get the usual perpetual license and upgrade if and when you want (which is what I do), or get the subscription.

[Crossinger]

Studio One 7 will be released 10-2024?

If you look at it purely empirically and use statistics from past releases for the calculation, then: Yes!

But reality is sometimes different...

[Kalamata Kid]

If you have some inside information or have the pulse of the S1 releases what is your prediction?

My feeling is as early as July but more likely S1 will be released this October.
