Frankfurt, Germany, April 2012...

It's  officially a "threepeat." At this year's Frankfurt Musikmesse, the  StudioLive 16.0.2 digital mixer was presented with the Musikmesse International Press Award (MIPA) in  the category "Mixing Desk (Project Studio)." PreSonus has won this award  in three consecutive years: The StudioLive 16.4.2 won the 2010 MIPA in  the same category, and the StudioLive 24.4.2 won it in 2011.

The  MIPAs are selected by the editors of more than 100 magazines from all  over the world. We are thrilled to get this recognition from such a broad-based group of industry  veterans. We thank the editors of the participating publications, the  Musikmesse organization, our distributors and dealers, and most of all  our customers, whose enthusiasm for the entire StudioLive line has made it immensely successful in every respect.

Smaart Spectral
Smaart Spectra
Baton Rouge, Louisiana, March 2012... PreSonus has begun incorporating Rational Acoustics' highly regarded Smaart Measurement Technology™ directly into the software used to control its  StudioLive digital mixers.

PreSonus' Virtual StudioLive™ (VSL) remote-control/editor/librarian software will now incorporate Smaart Spectra™ and Smaart Locator™, powerful tools for sound-system analysis and optimization, as part of PreSonus Universal Control 1.6, expected to be available later this spring.

Smaart is not a single technology but an evolved collection of audio measurement tools and techniques. If you're a live sound engineer or sound contractor, you're already aware  of Smaart's reputation as the gold standard of room/sound-system analysis.

Using Smaart technology, users can tap into the power of the StudioLive mixer's EQ to improve the sound of their P.A. system. With Smaart-enhanced VSL, users can view the spectral content of their mix in real time, and easily make changes. Clicking on the Graphic Equalizer button in Universal Control 1.6, Smaart Spectra's Real Time Analyzer activates Spectrograph's algorithms, displaying the spectral content of whatever is routed though a particular graphic EQ. Users can activate a Real Time Analyzer, much like the plug-in used in PreSonus' Studio One 2.

Even better is the Smaart Spectra Spectrograph display itself, which can help to precisely identify nasty feedback frequencies, enabling even less experienced users to easily tune their P.A. speakers to the room. Smaart  Spectra graphs a continuous series of spectrum measurements, showing frequency  on one axis, time on another, and level indicated by colors - making it particularly useful for quickly identifying feedback frequencies, which can be easily addressed using StudioLive GEQs.

"This is just the start of a beautiful relationship - PreSonus products are about to get a lot Smaarter," says PreSonus Chief Technology Officer Bob Tudor. "This is the real thing, trusted by acousticians and live-sound engineers the world over. We're thrilled to be incorporating Smaart Spectra and Smaart Locator into Virtual StudioLive."

Baton Rouge, Louisiana, March 2012...  PreSonus™ has announced StudioLive™ Remote 1818VSL software, a free, dedicated  wireless-control app for the PreSonus AudioBox™ 1818VSL audio/MIDI  interface.

The AudioBox 1818VSL USB 2.0 interface's 26 x 18 mixing and processing features are controlled by AudioBox VSL software for Mac® and Windows®. It provides a computer-based ultra-low-latency mixer with two stereo effects buses for reverb and delay plus theFat Channel processing from the StudioLive 16.0.2. The Fat Channel includes a compressor, limiter, downward expander, high-pass filter, and 3-band semi-parametric EQ that are available on every input, DAW return, and bus.

click for larger image
Now, with StudioLive Remote 1818VSL, you can control all features of AudioBox VSL software (except Solo and Channel Link) wirelessly from an iPad. The new app provides multiple views of the key AudioBox VSL mixer and processing controls. The Overview displays the most-used parameters, such as channel levels,  mutes, panning, EQ curves, and more for multiple channels at once. Tap a microview to zoom in on the Fat Channel processing, then  navigate between the processors with the flick of a fingertip.


"Because the AudioBox 1818VSL has a built-in 26 x 18 mixer, it can be seriously considered as a live mixer for small groups," notes PreSonus CEO Jim Mack. "StudioLive Remote 1818VSL iPad control makes this even more convenient."

click for larger image
An AudioBox 1818VSL firmware update will be required in order to use StudioLive Remote 1818VSL. Registered owners will be able to download this update at www.presonus.com/technical-support/downloads/drivers-software.

StudioLive Remote 1818VSL is expected to be available in the second quarter of 2012 and will be a free download from the Apple App Store.

BlueTube V2
Baton Rouge, Louisiana, March 2012...  
PreSonus is now shipping new and improved versions of two of its classic tube preamplifiers: the BlueTube DP V2 and TubePre V2.

Enjoy solid-state clarity or tube warmth with the BlueTube DP V2 dual-path  mic/instrument preamp. The solid-state path feeds PreSonus' Class A XMAX™ mic preamplifier with 80 dB of  variable gain-an upgrade from the original BlueTube DP. The tube path features a 12AX7 tube that operates on voltages double that of other  preamplifiers in its class, producing lots of headroom and big tone. The Tube Drive enables you to achieve anything from gentle warmth to edgy distortion. You also get 48V phantom power, an 80 Hz  high-pass filter, -20 dB pad, and polarity reverse.

With two combo mic/instrument inputs, the half-rackspace BlueTube DP V2 is a great choice for guitars as well as vocals. Singer-songwriters can run their vocal through one  channel and their guitar through the other, feeding both to the P.A.-no  guitar amp needed. It also serves as a DI box, thanks to balanced XLR and unbalanced ¼" outputs, and is housed in a new, rugged, 1/2U case. Try the BlueTube DP V2 as a front end for a DAW, too.  The BlueTube DP V2 is available immediately; MAP/street price is  expected to be $229.95.

TubePre V2
The  single-channel TubePre V2 tube preamp is an affordable way to add high  quality tube warmth and character to your sound. This new version provides an even wider palette of sound  options, and a much more focused tube saturation, than the original  TubePre. It has been upgraded to employ PreSonus' popular XMAX Class A  solid-state preamp, which is followed in the signal path by a 12AX7 vacuum-tube stage with Tube Drive tube-saturation  control.

Housed  in a rugged, 1/3-rackspace case, the TubePre V2 rear panel sports  separate unbalanced, ¼" instrument and balanced, XLR mic inputs and unbalanced ¼" and balanced XLR line  outputs. The front panel offers controls for gain, 48V phantom power, 80  Hz high-pass filter, and polarity-reverse, as well as a mic/instrument  input switch. A lighted VU meter and a clip LED help you keep an eye on your levels. The TubePre V2 is available  immediately; MAP/street price is expected to be $129.95.

StudioLive 244
Baton Rouge, Louisiana, March 2012...  
PreSonus  has announced new updates to its industry-leading StudioLive™ series  digital mixers, including a number of features not found on any other digital mixer from any manufacturer, at any price.  New features  include:
  • QMix™.  Up to 10 musicians can simultaneously control their PreSonus StudioLive  monitor (aux) mixes using an iPhone or iPod touch and PreSonus' QMix  app, a free download from the Apple App Store. QMix/VSL is the only solution that allows multiple users to  each control their own aux from separate iPhones.
  • Smaart™  Engine Technology. PreSonus has begun incorporating Rational Acoustics'  highly regarded Smaart Measurement Technology™ for sound-system  analysis and optimization directly into PreSonus Virtual StudioLive remote-control/editor/librarian software.  With Smaart technology and VSL, you'll be able to precisely identify  nasty feedback frequencies and get your loudspeakers to play nicer with  the room-all without having a degree in acoustical engineering. The first version of VSL to incorporate Smaart technology  will be part of PreSonus Universal Control 1.6, which is expected to be  available later this spring.
QMix for iPhone
  • Universal  Control 1.5.3 and StudioLive Remote 1.2. Universal Control 1.5.3  features an improved version of Virtual StudioLive that supports the new  QMix iPhone app, including QMix permissions (so that each user controls only one specified aux mix) and the ability  to name aux buses. Universal Control 1.5.3 also adds VSL features that  work with PreSonus StudioLive Remote 1.2 for iPad to enable SL Remote  permissions so that iPad users can only control front-of-house mixer features or a specified aux. Tap tempo has been  added to both VSL and StudioLive Remote. Finally, VSL adds the ability  to copy and load channels, copy main mix to aux mix (and aux to aux),  link channel faders so that they can move together, and make your StudioLive mixer default to Fader Locate Mode once a fader  has been adjusted in VSL or in StudioLive Remote for iPad.

Anaheim, CA, January 2012... At this  year's Winter NAMM Convention the PreSonus booth was a non-stop nexus  of activity, with live performances, technology demonstrations,  showcases, and more. But perhaps the biggest buzz was one most attendees  were barely aware of. In a tiny 12 x 6 foot room behind the stage, PreSonus staffers were busy streaming the entire show  out to the world.

Winter  NAMM is one of the world's largest and most exciting events for musical  instruments and music technology. But while tens of thousands of industry visitors from all corners of the  globe converge on the Anaheim Convention Center every year, members of  the general public have rarely had an opportunity to get inside the show  - until now.

presonus.jpg
Multiple  video feeds, including PTZ camera on the performers and an oversize  screen behind the stage, were fed to a Black Magic switcher in the editing suite, where Video Designer  / Producer Paul Charbonnet cranked some serious performance out of  three computers at once. "The Black Magic system is mixing directly to a  Mac Pro, which gives us our primary program," Charbonnet explains. "Then we've got an iMac and MacBook Pro doing  multiple duties including rendering, encoding for the Web, capturing for  our YouTube and Vimeo channels, monitoring live chat, and more."

"We've  got a multitrack audio split feed coming from the stage into our  StudioLive 24.4.2 console," explains Audio Engineer Mat Criddle. "That  enables us to deliver separate, simultaneous mixes for FOH and Webcasting."  Criddle also provided monitor mixes back to the performers, who were  able to manipulate their mixes using their iPhones via PreSonus' new  QMix™ wireless technology.

 

"At  the same time, we're also recording a multitrack feed of the live  performances directly into StudioOne," says Criddle. "So any of our performing artists can take their tracks  and do a full mix later on, and create a live recording or music video  from their performance here at NAMM."

NAMM video room 1
Presonus Broadcast Central at NAMM.

In  addition to the performance camera feeds, Associated Creative Director  Cave Daughdrill and Social Media Manager Ryan Roullard were regularly roaming the show floor, camera and  wireless mic in hand, conducting interviews with other exhibitors,  attendees, and anyone else who might have something interesting to show,  say, or play. "In between performances, we're mixing in a bit of Cave and Ryan's feed, along with a range of product  demos and other content," says Charbonnet.
Besides roaming the show, Roullard was a full-time presence on the web, blasting out photos and posts to Facebook and Twitter, fielding questions and comments from viewers, and monitoring the Web for relevant info.

And  the action didn't stop after the show closed. At 6PM, the day's content  was uploaded to PreSonus' LiveStream channel, where viewers from time zones in Europe, Asia, and elsewhere  could get a peek. "Over the first two days of the show alone, we edited  and uploaded more than 32 videos," says Charbonnet.

Despite  the daunting demands of bringing NAMM to the world, Charbonnet reports  that both men and machinery held up to the job. "It was a non-stop gig, but we were pleased to see  that everything went off without a hitch," he says. "It was a real team  effort, and we had tons of support from everyone. In the end, it was a  great feeling to know we were doing something great for music fans everywhere, and making history at the same time."

Baton Rouge, Louisiana, January 2012... Up to 10 musicians can simultaneously control their StudioLive monitor mixes using an iPhone® or iPod touch® and PreSonus' free QMix™ app. QMix builds on PreSonus' original Virtual StudioLive (VSL), which provides bidirectional computer control of PreSonus StudioLive™-series mixers via FireWire. Next came StudioLive Remote for iPad®, which provides wireless control of StudioLive mixers.
Screen shot 2012-01-21 at 6.43.04 AM.png
"SL Remote is very useful for the front-of-house engineer but it's overkill for onstage performers, and the cost of iPads can add up. That's why we created QMix," noted PreSonus Chief Technology Officer Bob Tudor. "The iPhone and iPod touch offer enough screen real estate to comfortably manage an aux mix, yet are relatively inexpensive and ultra-portable. QMix is designed for musicians and can be used in parallel with an engineer running StudioLive Remote from an iPad."
QMix works by networking one or more iPhones wirelessly with a Mac® or PC, enabling QMix to remotely access Virtual StudioLive to control one or more FireWire-connected StudioLive mixers. As each iPhone connects to the network, its copy of QMix will discover all StudioLive mixers on the network, enabling each musician to quickly and easily create an aux mix that includes all mixer channels. And QMix lets the engineer set permissions so that each iPhone on the network only controls a specified mix.
QMix will be a free download from the Apple App Store and is expected to be available in January 2012.

Baton Rouge, Louisiana, October 18, 2011 – PreSonus announced version 2 of Studio One, its groundbreaking, easy-to-use DAW for Mac OS X® (Snow Leopard and Lion) and Windows® XP/Vista/7 (and soon, Windows 8). Version 2 offers more than 100 new features and enhancements, including fresh takes on multitrack comping, multitrack MIDI editing, transient detection and editing with groove extraction, and Folder Tracks. And only Studio One 2 offers exclusive, tightly integrated Melodyne pitch correction. Yet the software is still uncluttered and easy to use.


Here are some of the important new features in Studio One 2.

Integrated Melodyne pitch correction. Studio One 2 seamlessly integrates Celemony’s Melodyne so tightly that, for practical purposes, Melodyne is simply a part of Studio One. You hear your edits in context with the rest of the arrangement, and when finished editing, render the audio in place—no track transfers or manual  rendering! Furthermore, edits made in the arrangement are seamlessly synced in Melodyne. Want to go back to where you were? It takes one click. No other DAW can do this. Melodyne Essentials comes with Studio One Professional 2; Studio One Artist 2 and Producer 2 come with a Melodyne trial version.

Transient detection, editing, and groove extraction. Sure, you can do transient detection and editing in other DAWs—but it  can be slow and painful. In Studio One, you simply select an audio event and press Q to quantize. Groove extraction is as simple as drag-and-drop; extract a groove from any audio and apply it to any other audio in seconds!

Multitrack comping done right. Single and multitrack comping are quick and easy in Studio One—and faster than with most DAWs! No tool-switching is needed, and crossfading between takes is automated, although you can edit the fades. Auditioning takes is as simple as holding Alt and clicking on a take.

Find it quickly. Studio One’s Browser offers quick access to instruments, effects, sounds, files, and more. In version 2, you can search within any location in the Browser, making it even faster and easier to find the resources you want.

Organize your tracks. Organizing related tracks and working with them as a group is a breeze with Folder Tracks. Group and bus your Folder Tracks with the click of a button—an exclusive Studio One feature.

Edit multiple MIDI tracks simultaneously. Now you can view and edit more than one instrument track at a time in the Music Editor, including editing multiple parts on different Tracks at once.

A great plug-in collection just got better. Studio One’s Native Effects plug-ins have drawn rave reviews from the media. Now they’re even better. The Ampire guitar-amp modeler is now Ampire XT and features new amp models, a new convolution-based cabinet-modeling section and an effects section. And the new OpenAIR  convolution reverb delivers ultra-realistic reverberation based on real spaces and classic hardware reverbs. To top it off, with the new IR Maker, you can capture your own impulse responses.

Enhanced mastering with Studio One Professional. No other DAW offers a truly integrated mastering suite comparable to the Project page in Studio One Professional. To its already extensive list of mastering and distribution features, Version 2 adds DDP Export, PQ  editing, and higher-quality sample-rate conversion.

PreSonus now offers three versions of Studio One 2: Artist, Producer, and Professional. Studio One Artist delivers all of the core audio and MIDI recording and  editing features, plus 26 32-bit effects plug-ins and 4 virtual instruments, and there is no limit on track count and plug-in instantiations. Studio One Producer includes everything in Studio One Artist and adds support for ReWire and AU/VST plug-ins, MP3 import and export, and additional third-party content.

Studio One Professional has everything in Studio One Artist and Producer and adds the Project page, an integrated mastering solution; fully licensed Melodyne Essential pitch correction; SoundCloud™ support; Red Book CD burning; video playback and sync; and five more Native Effects plug-ins.

Studio One 2 is expected to ship on November 1, 2011. Anticipated street/MAP prices are: Studio One Artist $99; Studio One Producer $199; and Studio One Professional $399. Upgrade paths enable users to move up as their needs grow.

Baton Rouge, Louisiana – PreSonus™ is now shipping Universal Control 1.5.2, a free, major update to its driver and control software, which also includes important firmware updates for its StudioLive™ 16.4.2 and 16.0.2 digital mixers. We thank all who participated in the public beta testing for version 1.5.2; the beta version is replaced by this release.

With this update, current StudioLive 16.4.2 mixer owners can now take advantage of six 31-band graphic EQs that are dedicated to the aux buses, variable (2 to 500 ms) output delays on each subgroup, and Aux Flip mode, which lets you include the Tape input, Main FireWire return, Aux A input Aux B input, FXA bus, and FXB bus in Aux mixes 1 through 6. An overlay for the 16.4.2 control surface is available for the cost of shipping and handling from the PreSonus Store at www.presonus.com.

Universal Control 1.5.2 adds compatibility with Mac OS X® 10.7 (Lion) for the FireStudio™ Mobile, FireStudio Project, FireStudio Tube, FireStudio Lightpipe, and all three StudioLive-series mixers. The original FireStudio (26x26) is not included in the Universal Control 1.5.2 update; however, PreSonus will continue to support users of this  product with Universal Control 1.2 and is developing a release that will add Lion compatibility.

The StudioLive 16.0.2 mixer adds compatibility with PreSonus StudioLive Remote control software for Apple iPad®—a  much-requested feature. StudioLive Remote 1.1 is required for iPad control of the StudioLive 16.0.2 and will be available imminently at the Apple Store. Of great importance, with this update, StudioLive 16.0.2 owners can choose to record channels 1 through 16, as before, or can record channels 1 through 14 and the L/R main bus. Thus, you can use the StudioLive 16.0.2 to mix down previously recorded tracks and record the stereo mix to PreSonus Capture™ or to a DAW (including PreSonus Studio One™).

PreSonus Virtual StudioLive for the StudioLive mixers has also been improved, adding three new features. With dual horizontal scrolling, you can separately scroll through Fat Channel settings and channel strips. You can now close the Aux Master view in order to maintain the fader view on low-resolution screens. The new Factory Reset feature resets a connected StudioLive mixer to its default settings and erases user-library changes.

This release is compatible with 32- and 64-bit Microsoft Windows® XP, Vista, and 7 and with Mac OS X 10.6 (Snow Leopard) and 10.7 (Lion).

Universal Control 1.5.2 can be downloaded free at www.presonus.com/technical-support/downloads/drivers-software.

Baton Rouge, Louisiana, August 19, 2011 – The PreSonus Central Station studio-monitor control system and its CSR-1 remote control are widely considered standard equipment in commercial and personal studios, providing outstanding audio performance at a great price. In the past, the Central Station and its remote control have been separate purchases, but most people bought both; so PreSonus is now offering the two items exclusively as a single package, the Central Station Plus. With an estimated street price of $599.95, the new Central Station Plus package saves customers $50 over the previous separate purchases.

 

With no polarizing debate or political posturing, PreSonus is simply providing better value and helping customers avoid deficit spending without raising taxes.

Providing the perfect combination of stereo inputs, outputs, and recording-communication functions, the Central Station allows you to easily manage multiple audio sources and monitor speakers. Boasting an audiophile-quality, passive signal path, with no op-amps or ICs, it delivers pristine audio quality; the ability to switch between multiple analog and digital sources and three sets of speakers; fast, accurate metering; and all of the extras that make your studio work easier and more efficient, it’s obvious why the Central Station is the professional engineer’s choice for monitor control.
The CSR-1 provides remote control of volume, talkback, muting, input-source switching, and speaker-output switching. It is wired to the Central Station via a proprietary DB15 cable (included), enabling you to keep the Central Station in your rack and control it from your desktop, providing maximum convenience with minimum wiring.
