Made a video demonstrating the features needed.


You will not be able to understand the requests unless you watch the video. 

In short, here are the feature request:

- Faster saving that doesn't overtake your project. In Cubase, the saving is instant and doesn't interfere with your workflow at all. 

- Glue tool to join to midi notes

- Proper Arrow/Scissor (while holding control) tool in midi like it works in audio. Having an eraser and draw tool for control is useless when you can draw by double clicking a blank space and delete a note by double clicking it. 

- Audition all notes in a chord by holding Shift (including notes that do not start with the other notes. All notes in that vertical line should be able to be auditioned). 

- Eq already loaded in mixer like in Cubase. Ability to select which EQ will be loaded so you can use better quality EQs by default. EQ is such a basic part of recording and mixing and you shouldn't have to load an EQ. There could be a button on the left to show/hide EQ as a module in the mixer. 

Thank you for considering this suggestions. I love Studio One, but these missing features make it much more difficult to work efficiently. 

closed with the note: Multiple requests in a single post are not allowed. Please read and acknowledge the rules before posting and create a separate post for each feature request. Thank you.

Glue tool to join to midi notes: If you select midi notes and click "g" on your keyboard it will merge midi parts too

Go to: Studio One> Keyboard Shortcuts...  

Type "Merge Events" and assign it whatever you like. 

Hope this helps!

This is inconvenient. You should just be able to select the took with a number or the middle mouse wheel and have the glue tool available to glue adjacent notes without having to select them individually.

I have to agree. Its strange not to have a dedicated glue tool.

At least a "press and hold"-shortcut
to bring up the scissors tool would be helpful indeed.

CTRL + SHIFT  for example is still unused...

I'm upvoting this specifically for the channel eq idea. Also, coming from cubase this is something I REALLY miss.
