Common Issues with the integration of Add-Ons and StudioOne.
• In some cases, customers will get the warning that the add-on and StudioOne are not compatible. Typically this is because the version build of StudioOne that is installed is not updated to the latest build available. The build must be 3.0.0 or later for an Add-On to integrate into the StudioOne version 3 software properly. To check the build info, go to the Studio One Help menu on PC and Studio One menu on MAC and in the drop down select About Studio One. This will give you the build info and product key that StudioOne is registered as. If the build is not version 3.0.0 or a later build then you will need to update StudioOne v3 to the latest build available in your account.
• Please see the following link for assistance updating StudioOne to the latest build:
Update StudioOne
• The other potential issue would be that StudioOne or the add-on is registered to another user account than the one the host software or add-on is registered to.
• To check this, go to the Help menu (PC) or Studio One menu (MAC) and check the About Studio One page and take note of the 28 digit product code listed there. You should have this product code listed in your user account with both the Add-On and StudioOne. If you are unable to find StudioOne registered under the "Software" section of your PreSonus user account and the add-on registered under the "Add-on" section of your user account, then the issue is that StudioOne and the add-on are registered under different user accounts. To resolve this issue, you will need to contact technical support and ask to have the license for the add-on transferred to the proper account. Make sure to include relevant account information in the support ticket for each account. Support tickets can be created from your user account once logged in.
WooHoo! If you're reading this, then this means that you're all done with installing Studio One. Now you can go make some great music and show the world how much better you are music now that you've got Studio One at your fingertips.
