Question

This seems like a simple request that is available in every other DAW I have used. Allow for the Input channel meters to display the input signal while Studio one is recording.

When tracking a live band, you need to monitor the input signal throughout the song. Not having this simple option really hinders using studio one for live tracking of a band.

Answer 1

Please see this old video that explains Record and Monitor buttons.

Also, in Studio One's Mixer, you can show the input channels:

Answer 2

The question is not about MONITORING. It's about METERING. If i monitor through hardware, and monitor button is OFF6 meteing is also OFF when recording. This is ridiculous.

Answer 3

This issue have been adressed for years now and wasn't an issue until S1 3.5 or something, dont remember exactly. It's a VERY basic feature that I hope Presonus will bring back SOON. At least give us a hint that they know about this

Answer 4

Also, about that video about record and monitor buttons, in that version of S1(S1 2 i believe) in the video it actually worked as it should in terms of monitoring the meters when recording. As in all other DAWs. But not anymore
