Why I use the Listen Bus in PreSonus Studio One

In this video, I demonstrate why I use the Listen Bus in all of my productions when working in PreSonus Studio One.

The Listen Bus is a feature that was added in the Studio One Version 5 life-cycle. In certain cases, when new features are added - I sometimes don’t realize how much I needed them until I begin to use them. To be completely honest, at this point I couldn’t imagine working without it. In this video, I demonstrate why I now use the Listen Bus in all of my productions when working in PreSonus Studio One.
