Studio One 5 Undo stops working BUG!

asked Jul 26, 2020 in Studio One 5 by romaindescampe (3,670 points)
I've noticed now on two separate occasions that the Undo (CMD-Z) function stops working all of a sudden in the middle of a session. I cannot use Undo from the "Edit" dropdown menu either, but can use the Undo history window to go back to a previous point.

This problem persists even if I close the session and/or the program. I also tried to disable/enable the undo option in the Console configuration preferences, but nothing changes.

When this happened the second time, I loaded an autosave from 5 minutes earlier, and there undo is still working completely as it should. Very strange bug. Please let me know if anyone has managed to fix it as it has already broken one of my sessions entirely.

And a bugfix in the next version of Studio One 5 would be much appreciated!!

I just noticed this bug happens when I add an instance of Antares Harmony Engine. Not sure this was the issue in my previous session as well, but clearly it seems plugin compatibility might be a factor.

in your settings advanced console clicking the enable undo option worked wonders for me i guess presonus stops it just incase your undoing something like a plugin that setting should fix the issue tho it at least worked for me! hope this helps man

I JUST upgraded to S1.

Half of my plugi-ins are black and CMD Z didn't work from the get-go....

Which is an option I use every 10 seconds...

It works IN plug-ins not in de DAW.

I tried enabling/disabling and enabling the undo button in the advanced tab but to no avail...

Happening to me as well, really annoying. I'm trying hard to move from PT to S1 but it's kinda of a pain...

This is happening to me all of a sudden.  Presonus, this is a deal breaker as I do A LOT of cut and paste and undo.  Come on.  Fix this already.

EDIT:  not sure if it is plugin incompatible.  Pretty much only using THU guitar plugins so far, and has not been an issue when starting a new song.  

That said, I am thinking this is more about importing stems and midi from a project started in Logic Pro X into Studio 5, as this is the first project in Studio 5 that I bring in stems rather than start a new project from scratch.  This would defeat the purpose of having Studio 5 since it would not really let you bring in other projects to mix and master.

Oh. My. God. The undo bug drives me NUTS.
It happened especially when I was editing audio and maybe even melodyne. It bugs for a particular save session. If I make a new session it works fine. But it. Has. To. Be. Fixed. Immediately. Presonus please!

My dudes...this bug S U C K S. Sitting here thinking WTF do i do right now? How is this even a thing?

EDIT:

So it gets to 1000 undos and locks up. Hit Edit > History on the DAW menu screen and you can click back through. But wow, what a pita.

The suggestion to check "enable undo" did not work for me as it is already checked.

Come on, Presonus.  This is a big one.  Please fix ASAP.

This happens to me when I move audio files from Logic Pro X to S1. The whole session is corrupt, even when I open a new session and import the data from the previous session. The undo bug transfer to the new session. This is really frustrating I already made like 6 sessions of the same song in hopes I the undo will work.. Presonus please FIX this.

 rionquiroz1 Thanks for your help. You were RIGHT.  I went to Preferences> Advanced>Console and I UNCHECKED "Enable Undo" . Now Its Working Perfectly!!!!!! BTW I suggest Everyone Look into th ATOM SQ. Pretty Nifty controller if you dont want the faderport.

Hey guys, i am having the same issue on studio one 5.2.0 the last update.. Is there any solution? Tried the advanced console settings  and did not solve it.. Even restarting the program could not fix it on the project.

So as odd as it is, I checked if the “enable undo” box was checked under the advanced settings (console) and of course it was and still the undo button would not work (nor my favourite hot key “Ctrl. Z”), so this time I unchecked the enable undo box…and what do you know…now it ****** works!  Makes no sense, but I am happy.

Bought presonus sphere a week ago

I started using S1 5.3 this very morning to mix a song, super excited!

encountered this bug right away! I can undo using the menu command or history...the key command doesn't work

I'm unbelievably sad :(

UPDATE: I found out that LOW CONTROL plug in by Black salt audio is causing this bug, only the AU version though not the VST....

So annoying after all this updates, this bug as a few more are still here. I hope Presonus, will make a bold move for professionals and make S1 robust, they should put a lot of focus and effort to make S1 move on top of the chain on DAWs stability. I still hope they are listening and take some aggressive action against the few flaws this otherwise perfect DAW.

I just experienced this...with the update to Studio One 5.4!  So they didn't fix it. It never happened to me on previous versions. I also just installed a FaderPort, I don't know if that triggered the bug. I hope someone can fix this, it basically makes my workflow impossible.

I deactivated "Enable Undo", and all works :)
