Not very helpful if you know nothing about studio one
I should have read the previous reviews. I’m coming from SONAR, and want to switch to Studio One. I expected these videos to be more helpful since the Sonar explained tutorials were so helpful for someone who knew nothing about the DAW. Looks like I have to buy a lot of bundles in order to get a grip on the basic functions of Studio One.
Response from Customer Service:
Like any DAW, Studio One may seem complicated at first but once you go through all the videos you will find it becomes easier and easier.
The Explained videos are just the first part of learning this massive piece of software. I encourage you to watch all the tutorials on Studio One to truly learn all the ins and outs.
Buying the downloads or bundles isn't the only option either. With our All-Access Pass subscription you get streaming access to every video on the site, plus any we add while your subscription is running! Weekly, monthly, or yearly subscriptions to choose from.
I hope that helps and good luck learning your new DAW. You will be up and running in no time.

Not recommended if you haven't watched Studio One 2 Explained or is well versed in the Studio One workflow
Author goes over features way too fast and without any detail.
Response from Customer Service:
If you end up upgrading to Studio One 4, check out our new version 4 offering by author Marcus Huyskens that goes over a good portion of the new additions to this fantastic DAW.

More an overview of Version 3 for those familiar with the software, rather than complete training
I am new to Studio One and have latest version 3.5. I came from Sonar world so I have some background in DAW. I started with this video but quickly realized it was not going to assist someone new to Studio One such as me. So I backtracked and searched the other videos. The Version 2 essentials is much more what I was looking for as a complete primer to actually learning to use and navigate a new software program. So if you are new I would start there first. Some of the features and items will not look exactly the same between versions 2 and 3, but it is still close enough to not be a problem. Then after going through that tutorial, I recommend messing with the software a bit, and then revisit this video. It will make much more sense at that point and actually be useful for what this really is, a very quick overview of the features of version 3 from the perspective of someone who is already familiar with the basics of Studio One, prior version. So in this regard this video meets that criteria. It is still a very dry presentation(monotone), and does not go in depth on actual examples or real world applications with a few decent exceptions. Still worth watching to pick up a few nuggets of information. Hope that helps.

Good info - but have coffee to hand....
Really good tutorial but the presenter needs to listen to the Welsh in order to add some high and low to his voice plus some cadence - I've fallen asleep more than once....

Completely useless for someone just beginning with Studio One 3.
Course probably needs new title. This was useless for me. I'm brand new to Studio One and he immediately jumps to areas to explain things without even telling you how to get there. I just kept finding myself lost and waiting for some direction. It honestly just seemed like a marketing overview of features. There was no tutoring whatsoever. Worthless if you're looking to have Studio One 3 explained.
Response from Customer Service:
Although this particular video did not work out for you, we have many other Studio One 3 tutorials that will walk you through different aspects of the software using multiple authors so you can get up and running with many different perspectives.
Be sure to check out First Song with Studio One 3, Recording and Editing Audio in Studio One 3, the Know-How Series, and the Tips and Tricks.
Also, if you ever get around to finishing this course to the end, I think you will find most of the basics are covered and everything will start to make sense.
There's plenty of content to get you going so have a look at the videos I mentioned and more and you will be using Studio One 3 in no time.

Plays like a dictated book, not ab instructional video
I have grown accustomed to some excellent "Explanation of" videos here at Groove3. Unfortunately, this isn't one of them. While viewing the modules, I kept thinking that the material would be more useful, if the presenters words were printed in a document with illustrations that showed the areas of the interface being discussed. Although, I'm sure that the coverage of the material was very comprehensive, the tempo of its presentation was much too fast to easily assimilate. Almost no examples are given of any manipulation the narrator describes are given, and the monotone presentations make them difficult to attend to without resorting to room isolation headphones. The whole point, I thought, in a video, is for the exploitation of the multimedia environment. The presenter makes no use of audio examples to highlight or explicate his descriptions. I'm currently in the process of trying to decide on a DAW replacement for Sonar (recently left unsupported by Gibson), and I have been working in DAW environments for over 12 years. This title was probably much more helpful to me as an advanced DAW user than it would be for a novice. That I had trouble moving from the paused video to try things out in Studio One, suggests that this video will be pf little use for somebody just getting started.

Excellent intro to S1
Thanks Scott. This was a very helpful and straight to the point intro to Studio One 3. One thing: I'd have liked a quick overview on how S1 handles instruments as they are not embedded in a track like in every other DAWs.

Thorough yet concise; laid out well, easy to follow.
I am new to Studio One - coming from Sonar Platinum. This was the perfect tutorial to show me what I need to know.

useful but far from complete
I think more time spent on the basics of using the DAW would be better. Too much time spent on FX and instruments.

Response from Customer Service:
You are correct that this tutorial is only the beginning of learning Studio One 3. Once finished with this lesson, there are many more to continue to learn this vast program including SO3 Advanced, Tips and Tricks, our Know-How series covering more of the basics but in detail, First Song with Studio One, and more. I hope you get to see them all!

OK, but not as good as earlier versions
This course is only good if you're making the jump from Studio One 1 or 2. If you start with this course, you'll be lost. It does, however, a decent job of explaining changes to Studio One in version 3. But it's only decent, not particularly well-explained, and almost no examples are used.
1. When did you start dabbling in music?
I began playing music at the age of 5 and have never looked back.
2. What training have you had?
I studied all forms of guitar when I was young, as well as organ and piano, and then moved on to bass, drums, and music engineering and production as I grew into my 20s. I attended and graduated from the Institute of Audio Research with honors in 2000, and began my music production company, Stranded On A Planet, in 2004.
3. When did you get into recording?
I started recording on a Tascam 4 track in 1994, and then moved onto the Roland VS series recorders back in the day. From there, the evolution to computers and hybrid analog/digital music production came after years of working and looking for a sound and workflow that facilitated world class sound with creative, intuitive use.
4. People you have worked with/for?
I have produced albums for and with dozens of artists, including Nadia Ali, Cavalier King, The Hawthorne Effect, Tritonal, A Friend Called Fire, Voice of Addiction, Martha Berner and The Significant Others, and Michael Angelo Batio to name a few. I compose for Warner/Chappell, Harpo, The GiggleBellies, Beachbody, and several other corporate clients. I was the executive producer and co-host of “The Top Shelf”, a video series for Guitar Center Pro that focused on high end audio equipment usage and interviews with the designers of the equipment. And, of course, I am now working with Groove 3.
5. Why are you so good at training people?
In my years of musical work, which range from touring the globe as the guitarist for Nadia Ali, to writing and recording commercial/television music, to helping audio developers test their products, I have worked extensively on both the production and the artistic side. I have also spent a lot of time working with virtually all audio processing tools and sample libraries for my work, so after putting all of that into practical use for my job, I feel I can offer a real world perspective on how these things add up to a creative end product and a successful career
