Fix your vocals with Melodyne pitch correction
PreSonus Studio One 2 Professional takes the pain out of one of the more tedious processes out there - pitch correction. PreSonus has partnered with Melodyne, one of the most respected pitch correction software companies out there, to make fixing vocals and other pitch issues easier than ever. Instead of having to export the audio, open it up and tweak it, then import it back in, and deal with all the file management issues, Studio One 2 Professional has built Melodyne in so it is as simple as turning on a plug-in. No hassle, fast pitch correction using one of the highest-regarded programs in the industry. PreSonus Studio One 2 Professional makes recording, mixing, and mastering easy.

Create production-quality masters - in the box
The Project page is a complete mastering solution that is fully integrated with the rest of the program. The Project page includes all the necessary tools to create a production-quality master, including effects, crossfades, volume envelopes, and meters. In addition, Studio One 2 Professional creates an intelligent link when songs are placed in a Project for mastering, automatically updating any changes to the original tracks or subsequent mixes. From basic tracking to multiple-release mastering, Studio One 2 Professional is the complete solution.

Spice up your recordings with all-new plug-ins
