PRESONUS S1 Artist 3.0 [78/307] Chapter 6 studio one reference manual

When the small light indicator next to the [Apply] button is lit, this means that changing the Detection or Event options and

then clicking Apply automatically undos the previous operation, making it easier to find the right settings by viewing the

result of the Strip Silence process, then tweaking the settings if needed without having to undo manually. Any change in

selection (or other editing operation) ends this automatic state, and the indicator is no longer lit.

The following describes each setting:

Detection This determines how Studio One identifies silence in the areas you wish to process.

Material The first three options set the Open and Close Threshold for the gate algorithm automatically.

Lots of Silence Choose this for material that contains lots of silence and single hits—for instance, a

clean, typical single-drum recording (hat, kick).

Little Silence Choose this for material that has some action going on but still has some silence—for

instance, minimal techno/single drum loops, ride, or snare tracks.

Noise Floor Choose this for material where there is almost no real silence—for instance, noisy drum

recordings, overheads, drum mixes, and drum loops.

Manual Allows the Open and Close Threshold to be manually edited.

Open Threshold Set between -80 and 0.00 dB.

Threshold Link Engage to link the Close Threshold to the Open Threshold.

Close Threshold Set between -80 and 0.00 dB.

Events This section determines the nature of the Events created after removing silence.

Minimum Length Determines the minimum length in seconds for any resulting Event.

Pre-Roll Determines the amount of time in seconds that should remain at the beginning of resulting Events from

the time at which the previously detected silence ends.

Post-Roll Determines the amount of time in seconds that should remain at the end of resulting Events from the

time at which newly detected silence begins.

Fade-In Determines the length in seconds of the linear fade-in applied to resulting Events.

Fade-Out Determines the length in seconds of the linear fade-out applied to resulting Events.

Link Enable this option to automatically set the Fade-In parameter to match the Pre-Roll setting, and the Fade-

Out parameter to match the Post-Roll setting.

Audio Parts

It is often convenient to merge multiple separate Events into a single object in order to move them all together or simply to

clean up the Arrangement. This is accomplished with Audio Parts.

To create an Audio Part, select the Audio Events and then press [G] on the keyboard. This makes the separate Events

appear and function as a single Event in the arrangement while also appearing and functioning as separate Events in the

Editor. It is then much simpler to, for instance, duplicate a chorus in the arrangement and retain access to the individual

Events for editing crossfades and other details.

Note that Audio Parts support shared, or ghost, copies, with the exception of any Event FX which are strictly per Event

instance.
