Studio One Prime works with Mac and PC computers.
Obviously PreSonus is hoping you’ll like it enough to pay to upgrade to one of their paid packages. But other than that it’s pretty much a fully-functional entry-level DAW that you can download and use for free. That’s a showstopper for a lot of people. The main limitation is you can’t load 3rd party plugins with the free version. So basically what it comes down to is the free version of Studio One 3 isn’t a demo and it doesn’t expire and you can use a number of features and any number of tracks and effects without hindrance or nag screens popping up. Studio One 3 Prime definitely has a lot of good things going for it in terms of the number of features it offers for not costing a dime, but as you would expect there are some limitations that will deter a number of would-be downloaders. But things could be different with PreSonus. The concept is sound (pardon the pun), but not when the cons outweigh the pros. Last week PreSonus announced (somewhat under the radar) that they’ve released a new version of Studio One 3 called Prime that is completely free to download and use.Ī lot of companies are getting on the “let’s offer a free version of our DAW” bandwagon lately, like Avid with Pro Tools First.
