2. Select Record Enable on the track. Turn up the Input 1 level on your audio
interface while speaking/singing into the microphone. You should see the input
meter in Studio One Artist react to the input. Adjust the gain so the input level is
near its maximum without clipping (distorting).
You are now ready to start recording. For complete instructions, please consult the
Studio One Reference manual located in Help | Studio One Reference Manual.
You can add plug-ins and instruments to your Song by dragging-and-dropping
them from the Browser. You can also drag an effect or group of effects from one
channel to another, drag in customized effects chains, and instantly load your
favorite virtual-instrument preset without ever scrolling through a menu.
In the lower right corner of the Arrange window are three buttons:
• The Edit button opens and closes the audio and MIDI editors.
• The Mix button opens and closes the Mixer window
• The Browse button opens the Browser window, which displays all of the
available virtual instruments, plug-in effects, audio files, and MIDI files,
as well as the pool of audio files loaded into the current session.
To add a virtual instrument to your session, open the Browser and click on
the Instrument button. Select the instrument or one of its patches from the
instrument browser and drag it into the Arrange view. Studio One Artist will
automatically create a new track and load the instrument as the input.
