PRESONUS S1 Artist 3.0 [19/307] Studio one reference manual

The configuration of the Audio I/O Setup is done within each Song, so that it is possible for each Song to have a separate

I/O setup. As discussed in Default Device I/O Setup, a default I/O setup can be created so that each new Song defaults

to a particular I/O setup if you desire.

In the Audio I/O Setup menu, there are two tabs: one for input configuration and one for output configuration. In each tab,

a Matrix Routing view shows the current configuration, with the vertical columns indicating hardware audio device

channels (hardware I/O) and the horizontal rows indicating created software I/O channels. Software I/O channels function

as the input sources and output destinations available to individual Tracks in Studio One

Add or Remove Software I/O Channels

Click on the [Add (Mono)] or [Add (Stereo)] button to add an Input or Output Channel, depending on which tab you are

Hardware inputs and outputs are assigned to software I/O channels in a matrix router, which is a visual representation of

the routing. Software channels (mono and stereo) are each given a horizontal row, and hardware inputs and outputs are

given vertical columns. The points at which these rows and columns intersect represent potential connections, or routes,

between the hardware I/O and software I/O channels.

By default, Studio One creates three Input Channels: one stereo and two mono. These channels are labeled Input L+R

(stereo), Input L (mono), and Input R (mono). By default, the stereo Input Channel receives input from the first stereo

hardware input pair of your selected audio device. The two mono Channels receive input from the same stereo hardware

input pair.

The Output Channel is labeled Main Out (stereo) and is routed by default to the first stereo hardware output pair of your

selected audio device.
