Question

Hello, I bought a PreSonus ITwo box a few  years ago. I had the right to download Studio One. I now have another computer and would like to also put Studio One on it. I can not remember the process on how and where I download this from? If I have to register this, how and where do I find my code?

In your experience will Studio One 64 bit work on a 32 bit Win 10? ( I had to use 32 bit due to an old version of Cubase which I also use sometimes)

Hi, first off, go to your page on mypresonus.  This will list things like which version of studio one you have a licence for.  Secondly the short answer is no.  You need a 64 bit Windows installation to run Studio One v4.  Older versions (v3 and v2) have a 32 bit installer but from V4, 32-bit support was dropped.  Now for the last part - whomever told you you need a 32 bit windows to run a 32 bit executable has told you lies.  Windows 64 bit will run both 32 bit AND 64 bit programs natively, whereas a 32 bit windows installation will ONLY RUN 32 BIT PROGRAMS.  As a side note, 32 bit applications are becoming a thing of the past.  Its all about multi core processors with core counts of 4, 6, 8, 16 cores/threads.  Melodyne 5 only supports 64 bit computers and hosts now.  Many Plugin vendors are dropping 32 bit support too.  (I buy Computer Music fairly often and all their free plugs have dropped 32 bit distributions).   64- bit computing has been becoming a standard over the past 5 years.
