The Realest Video I've ever done - 6 Things that I have Completely Changed my mindset on

In this video, I wanted to try something different. In the spirit of being honest, open, and exercising some humility - I want to talk about 6 Things that I have COMPLETELY Changed my mindset on in the last decade or so, when it comes to belief's and opinions that i have come to realize are limiting.

I find that it’s really easy to become set in our ways, or to develop strong opinions or rules. This is especially the case when it comes to repetitive actions, such as recording, producing, and mixing.

Having said that, I’d like to offer some of my own insights on some audio related topics and how they pertain to my own personal journey of learning, and evolving in my craft.

How to Move Audio Events to New Tracks WITHOUT Layers

In this video, I demonstrate how to move audio events to a new track WITHOUT moving all the associated layers. Although Layers can be useful, once the final comp is done, many producers and engineers prefer to move the comp to a brand new track, leaving the original track(s) as backup.

From this point, it's very easy to consolidate the new audio, and work with the final rendered resulting audio events.

How to toggle the default Vertical Stack Order to Horizontal - When Using Drag and Drop From The Browser

When using a Drag and Drop workflow to import files from Studio One’s Browser directly to the Arrange Window - the default behaviour will vertically stack these files on top of each other and create tracks based on file type.

For the most part, this is a good thing - but what about situations where you’d prefer that Studio One places all the files on the same track?

For these cases, there’s a simple way to change how the files are brought in. :)

In this video, I demonstrate how to toggle the default 'vertical stack' order, to horizontal - when dragging files from the browser into the Arrange Window in PreSonus Studio One.
