Dear PreSonus, As a user of Studio One, I was wondering if you could adopt a great feature found in Logic. In Logic, you can turn an audio region fade in/out into a tape stop/start effect with the click of a button. You can actually toggle back and forth between tape start/stop and fade in/out, it's that easy. The length and speed are dictated by the length of the fade in/out drawn on the ends of the audio region.

Is there any way for you guys to write that into the program? Many have written in about this topic a long while ago but still nothing.

Would love to see this feature usable in the same simple way Logic uses it.

I agree. This would be so nice. I come from Pro Tools (10+ years) and really LOVE S1... its so fast and forward. A kind of Click And Go with the Tape Stop would be the cherry on top!!!

Yeah, I really would like to see this option in the next release.

I'm trying to switch from Logic to S1 but I noticed that S1 still missing some great features.

Either that or a tape stop/start plugin that can be triggered by audio crossing a theshold and running once unless automated.  Imagine just holdingalt and dragging a tape stop plugin to an event and just having to set the speed and length. Or better yet having macros that load the plugin and your custom timing preset at the touch of a button. If that’s how the one in logic works im all for it. I tried doing this with shaperbox 3 but the audio keeps triggering the effect to start over and over and over so it sounds like scratching and every other plugin requires you to automate pressing a button.  The easiest way for me so far has been using sugarbytes artillery “turntable” and triggering that with an instrument track/midi that way I can just put the different timing and start and stops on different keys as well as other effects. Great for editing recording sessions on the fly.
