Hi all,

We have Studio One 3 and using Windows 10 and cannot see an option (in Studio One 3 audio settings) to setup the audio output to our Bluetooth headphones ? I can only see audio output as the built-in computer sound card.

I have the Bluetooth headphones as the default output device in Windows 10 and any other music program i open plays back ok via the Bluetooth headphones. The speaker icon bottom right corner in Win 10 is also set to Bluetooth Headphones and plays ok on test playback in the Windows sound control panel.

I've read on some other forums that you have to install optional " Asio4all drivers to then enable Bluetooth output devices to work inside Studio One 3, but i don't really want to do that unless thats the only way to do it.

Thanks in advance.

Studio One's audio is controlled by an audio device. I don't know what you are using.

Did you check your audio device setup in Studio One?

Does it show your device? If not, your bluetooth headphones are controlled outside of Studio One.

I eventually found in the Studio One 3 "Audio Setup" i had to select "Windows Audio" and then click "Control Panel" on the right. Then select Bluetooth Headphones. However when i did that, Studio One 3 crashed alot and wouldn't work most of the time even with the latest Win 10 V 1909 and patches up to date on two differant Win 10 new pcs..

So installed Asio4all latest version and then selected that in the Studio One 3 Sound / Asio4all / Control Panel / Bluetooth Headphones and worked perfectly. No lockups or crashes in Studio one. Works great now.
