Paid for itself the first day!
This book paid for itself the first day. I happened to order it at the same time that I brought a new MIDI control, both arrived on the same day. Had it not been for this book the Alesis VI25 would have been sent back. I was deep into the confusion of trying to deal with another (common theme with everything these days) piece of hardware and accompanying software that came with abysmal documentation. When this book saved the day The answer I needed was on the DVD. At first I was disappointed to find out the “how to add new instruments” was on the DVD, I am not a visual learner I like to have the book beside me to reference the steps not pause rewind play…. but William Edstrom gave such a detailed explanation of the process it was easy. The writing style is smooth and to the point I look forward to finishing it. This book should simply come with Studio One.

Decent Book
In all fairness, I have only had this book for about a week and only had time to go through the first two chapters. I also haven’t experienced the DVD content yet. And, it is marketed as a quick start guide, so I guess I shouldn’t complain too much about the lack of depth of content.The book has some decent content, like the explanation of how to zoom in and zoom out on a track, but often leaves you to guess which pictures aka “Figures”, go with the concept being discussed.The author is light on examples when explaining concepts or tasks. As an experienced technical documenter, working in I.T., I always give concrete examples in documentation I write, no matter how obvious I think the concept or task may be. Not so in this book.

I read this and used it from beginning to end.
Reads well, gives timely examples in supporting the practical activities. Also provides alternatives that require more reading but points you to the exact page of that information. I got a lot out of the book. I wish they had this when I first bought the Presonus Project Studio. I learned by hard knocks but the book gave me good methods of organizing my process flow in recording. I had trouble with the Headphone volumes but the book was able to help me change a couple of options and I was able to software correct the monitor output levels.

Good companion to the Studio One manual.
Too many references to other DAWs but all in all a good reference book.

Needed Guidebook for PreSonus Studio One
A very much needed handbook to the Studio One software. Coming from Sonar X-2 I was familiar with the formats of DAW’s but PreSonus was arranged quite differently then some other DAW’s and you need a roadmap to navigate around in it… this is your roadmap to basic functions and some advanced techniques. It could be a bit more detailed but it is uncluttered and most functions are easy to find, if you need a reference book this is it.

William Edstrom Jr.
Another good product from an amazingly talented teacher who speaks with clarity and with informative knowledge… all this in a manner that not only educates you, but you end up really liking the guy. Buy it and anything else he is involved with… you won’t regret it.Stephen.

Well written, but wish there was more
Have used Studio One 2 (on a personal level) for quite some time, but wanted something to fill in some of the gaps in my knowledge. I use S1 mostly for multi-track recording live performances (as opposed to writing music). There is much more to Studio One 2 than what I use, and the book seems to cover quite a few of those facets. Unfortunately, the part I’m interested in is just a small part of this book.

Well worth the time and money.
Bill Edstrom is knowledgeable, experienced, and an excellent teacher. His presentation of this information is always interesting and valuable. The videos are very good, also.

Nice book and DVD, but the title description is a bit misleading. This book is more for a first time user, not a producer or engineer. And you can find better information on YouTube than this book. Just saying.
Morticia –
This is a very well written and easy to follow book which covers a depth and breadth of the features within Presonus Studio One.It is clearly laid out, easy to read and conveys the information needed without resorting to technical terminology.Studio One is a very intuitive DAW and its workflow is easy to pick up quickly. This book covers the rich features that lie beneath the seemingly simple interface of Studio One and gives some excellent tips on getting the best out of it.The DVD that comes with the book includes some very useful video tutorials. The book itself has been updated to cover functionality included in version 2 of Studio One.If you use Presonus Studio One, then buy this book !

A must read for all studio one users The video included is also very helpful to understand everything that is mentioned on the book.

I already have some Studio One video tutorials by Bill Edstrom but I also like tutorials in book form as I can study them in bed and other convenient places! This is a larger format book and is very well illustrated and laid out – an excellent job by the publishers which matches the quality of Bill’s work. Despite the title this isn’t just a book for advanced users: the earlier chapters are helpful if you’re new to Studio One. Highly recommended.

Not really a “beginner’s guide”, but well written and concise. Useful as a reference tool, although the index could do with a bit more detail.
