Release Notes
This document lists all Studio One 5 maintenance updates and their included fixes and
improvements.
UPGRADE CUSTOMERS, PLEASE NOTE: Studio One 5 is installed as a new application and
doesn’t overwrite your previous version of Studio One. Both versions can be run on the same
computer, just not simultaneously. Songs and Projects created in previous versions of Studio One
will open in Studio One 5. However, once you have saved a Song or Project in version 5, you will not
be able to open it in an earlier version of Studio One.
It is important to note also that Studio One 5 includes several changes to audio processing features,
most notably in the updated Native Effects plug-in suite. Because of this, you may notice changes to
the sound of your Song or Project. These changes may be subtle or quite noticeable depending on
the processing that was used. Because of this, it is highly recommended that you retain a copy of
your session in the earlier version of Studio One so that you can revert if you so chose.
Ampire XT > Ampire (third-generation) compatibility: The “Ampire XT Classics” legacy extension isn’t
compatible with Studio One 5. If you have been using any of the legacy amps in songs you are still
working on, you have three options:
a) Finish the song in your previous version of Studio One.

b) Bounce tracks using Ampire XT Classics to audio before opening the song in Studio One 5.
c) Open the song in Studio One 5 and replace Ampire XT Classics amps with any of the new
State Space Modeling amps.
