PRESONUS S1 Artist 3.0 [82/307] Timestretching

To add a Track to an existing Edit Group, click on the Edit Group box (under the input selector) on the desired Track in the

Arrange view. Then, in the pop-up menu, choose the Edit Group to which you wish to add the Track.

When a Track is included in an Edit Group, selecting the Track selects all Tracks in the Group. Edit actions performed on

any Event for any Track in the Group are performed on all Events for each Track in the Group.

In Studio One, Edit Groups also group the faders for the related Channels in the Group. This topic is discussed further in

the Groups section of the Mixing chapter. Note that it is also possible to create an Edit Group from a Folder Track.

If a Track is in an Edit Group, and an Event from the Track is viewed in the Edit view, the Group icon appears at the top left

of the Edit view, indicating that any edits performed on the Event in view affect other Events.

Dissolving Edit Groups

To dissolve, or ungroup, an Edit Group, [Right]/[Ctrl]-click on any Track in the Group in the Arrange view. Then select

Dissolve Group (1, 2, 3…), and the Group is dissolved. Grouping and dissolving actions can be undone and redone, as

with most user actions.

Temporarily Suspending Edit Groups

Certain actions—such as moving a fader, muting, and soloing—can be performed on a Track within an Edit Group,

without affecting the Group as a whole, by temporarily suspending the Group. To do this, hold [Alt]/[Option] on the

keyboard while performing an action on a Track.

Timestretching

It is possible to stretch an Audio Event to fit a tempo other than its original tempo, without changing the pitch. This is called

Timestretching, and it can be used to effectively slow down or speed up an Audio Event. For instance, a one-bar drum

loop recorded at 120 bpm (beats per minute) can be stretched to fit into one bar at 100 or 140 bpm without significantly
