From what I understand there is, but it is only when you bring Mixbus's FX, EQ,Comp,Saturation into play.
Search down in the Software sub forum, Bapu done a test, you can read the results of that test there, which from memory was no, there is no difference all things being equal. I have Mixbus 3 and 4, but on't really like it, and it's way to frustrating to try and use as a fully fledged DAW.

If somebody know how the equivalent of freeze a synth from a synth rack ...would be exellnt ...i know the command to offline a track witch commit the ausio and bypass fx that you can roll back ( i hate the implemntation since when you commit the fx dissapear , great to share projects but to know what was on the track you have to make it rea ime again ...


Another question is when you modify a track in songs view and it can be upadtesd in projects view by bouncing it again ´ is there a way to control that process like choosing the bus to use for bounce (to skip Arc in my case and bounce a specific bus ?

Guyz be sure to play with macros ...it s making it super efficient ....

In S1, you "Transform to Audio Track" (right-click on the track to select). You then have options to include or exclude EFX, etc. You can always then reverse it with "Transform to Instrument Track".
 
For Projects, you bring in the song which is then linked to the song in S1. Then, from the Project page, you can click on the link and open the song and edit as usual. Then when you save the song, it will update in Project!
 

Maybe the underestimated direction is Reaper?
Videos page is impressive,automation and time stretching especially

Just tried S1 out....there are some definite things to like.
It's initial visual impression at least is far more professional than the others tried to date (Reaper, Mixbus & Mixcraft) and the user interfacing is fresh and functional. Mixbus gave visual grief at high res and was unreadable in some sections.
The V-Studio gear works ok on S1 unlike Mixbus which did not like the 700R but was quite happy with the Motu Pre8.
 
Overall after 30mins of playing around, S1 'may' be the new kid on the block for this user...bit more playing around required before getting too excited before Christmas.
Cheers all and thanks for all the sharing, it has helped.
PS: g'day Jeff!

To those who think other DAW's sound better than Studio One.  Sorry you are simply wrong.  I have already proved this.  In total summing mode they are all the same.  What separates them is everything else such as stock plugin design etc. If you cannot get a great mix in Studio One the problem lies somewhere else. 

Please share your proof with us. Really, I am not a heckler but I genuinely want to see your proof. I would feel better knowing that my purchase decision was well founded.

I ran some more tests last night. I had some trouble with my screen captures though so I will have to do it again so I can show what I did and show the results. But in the meantime this is what I can tell you as absolute fact...
 

Great that others find what i heard. I belive that I can and will make good music in my new Studio One, but there was a difference when i put in the the same project into S1 and had all the faders the same.
The same levels on the faders didn't work. You have to re mix everything.
I might have been  a little angry in my opening post. But I was angry. I was really angry that i couldn't make it sound the same.
 
I have tried to mix this fast in S1 to compaire. The faders are different. And I dont have Breverb, REmatrix Solo and BT Compressor CP2S-3. For the Bass with the BT Compressor, I imported the freezed track.

I guess this mixes is in no way scientific. But you can hear what I struggle with.

Wow Jarsve, great job on both mixes. Very nice. 
 
Perhaps as we move forward with Studio One we could help each other navigate through the mix summing differences. I am all for banding together and making the best of what we have. Man that SONAR mix is killing it! It may take some adjusting, but the Studio One mixes can get there too, we just need to start readjusting to it's different sound. But it does make me weep all the more for the loss of future SONAR development. All the more I see how great SONAR really is. What a shame about Gibson...

It is a little pointless trying to recreate a Sonar Mix in Studio One.  Or even get into comparing how they sound.  They all sound great.  Unless you want to remix something completely you will more than likely leave your Sonar productions in Sonar.   Think more about starting complete new projects in Studio One.  Do that and then compare that final sound to your previous sound. What happens then when you produce a nicer mix than your last Sonar mix.  You may be surprised. 
 
The sound of a mix is from the use of plugins and the stock plugins.  Not in terms of how any DAW may handle audio.  They all do it very well.  What I would be doing is opening up my last big Sonar sessions and really take a close look at your total plugin set up.  Stock, plus all your third party stuff.  The third party stuff will sound the same in any DAW.  That is in fact the great thing about digital.  It is amazingly consistent on various levels.  What EQ's are you using. Reverbs, Dynamics.  I use quite a lot third party stuff so they will show up, behave and sound as they did before.  You will certainly be able to transfer presets for your plugins easily between DAW's.  That is way more important.  
 
Find ways to open as many Sonar plugins as you can inside Studio One if possible.  Or look for suitable replacements.  There are tons of them out there.  These may be better things to focus on.  On another computer I have got Sonar 8.5 and Studio One V2 installed side by side.  All the Cakewalk plugins appear there inside Studio One.  Some of your bundled plugs you love and use a lot that you get in Sonar (I know Sonar is very well stocked with provided plugins and I think that is great) may need to be re purchased. Talk to the plug in people too.  They may be able to help.
 
I just did a very big multitrack session using Logic.  Had to quickly jump from Studio One to Logic and it sounded great.  No big sonic changes here either.  Just like there at summing level for instance no differences either in how all DAW's sound while summing.  But this is where Sylvan is right!  If I were to mix a complete raw multitrack session on say Logic using all its stock plugs and all on Studio One with its stock plugs and even Sonar with all its amazing plugins then yes there will be three slightly different sounding mixes and they should not null.  But here is where you come in.  As I said, if you can hear the end result in your head there is no reason why you should not be able to get there with all three DAW's in this example.
 
There may be some level things goings going on I don't doubt that.  I know that Studio One records 3 db lower than what the metering says.  (At the top end of the range)  If you clip for example in recording, the built in headroom may in fact have saved the audio intact.  It's clever.  But minute level differences won't matter too much because by the time you are mastering the mix will be pretty loud anyway. 
 
Don't forget too the things that Studio One actually does very well over a lot of other DAW's.  The gapless audio engine is very nice indeed.  It loops amazingly well and does a host of other things.  All while playing often. It is jaw dropping what you can do while it is in play mode and record for that matter.  The GUI is fine too.  I use two screens and it is real nice in that mode. Seeing the mixer open the whole time with all your plugins and sends visible at once.  You can customise the whole look.  It is powerful like this.  There are many skins options.  Some guys on the forum are writing amazing macros and scripts which can be imported and run.  Like super advanced colour and GUI schemes.  Another guy is writing some serious scripts too that have added a huge array of midi features not normally present and its all free too.  They all run perfectly fine and stable too. 
 
You have made a perfectly wise decision in your investment.  There is also a nice forum over there with some really smart guys on it too.  There is also a whole third party website in Studio One Expert which is an amazing resource.

I have also done some tests comparing summing in Studio One and Mixbus.  I tracked my son playing drums and did an 8 channel multitrack recording of the kit.  Used no plug-ins in Studio One.  Same deal, set channel faders to whole numbers and used LCR panning only. In Mixbus I also used no processing and removed all saturation.  Got identical sound from both and perfect null.  Mixbus is NOT adding any permanent special sauce in terms of some form of analog console emulation.  This put me off a bit actually.  It is not that different sound wise to any other DAW.  The Mixbus sound is coming form everything else.  Dynamics, that great 32C channel EQ and the buss and master EQ as well. Plus all their other plug-ins and some of them are great!
 
To those who think other DAW's sound better than Studio One.  Sorry you are simply wrong.  I have already proved this.  In total summing mode they are all the same.  What separates them is everything else such as stock plugin design etc. If you cannot get a great mix in Studio One the problem lies somewhere else.

I was an  electronics engineer earlier in life, and while I did analog, i studied computer architecture.  I agree with you - if two daws sum similarly and there are not phase issues (easy problems to fix) AND IF there are no plugins in the chain (eq, compression...), saying one DAW sounds different is saying you can hear the difference in
 
 

Maybe Cakewalk can develop one ooops!!!

One thing can be said of S1 vs SONAR, S1 uses CPU a lot more efficiently than SONAR. I am a musician, not a mathematician, or computer engineer and don't know why the same project in Sonar (number of tracks, plugins, and number of audio files) takes a lot more CPU than the project does in S1.
 
A side note:
 
I have caused S1 to crash one time so far by a drag and drop of an audio file to a non sensical place in S1.  This actually froze my computer and required a computer hard reboot to get back to work.
 
Sonar, on the other hand, handled these errors better and allowed us to END TASK and reload Sonar to keep going.... but like anything else, I experienced more of these odd SONAR errors than this ONE S1 error.

Jeff. while you are here...
 
Can Studio One create MIDI notes from audio like SONAR? Just curious. 
 
I have feature requests too, but I will save that for the Studio One forum or wherever that would be appropriate. 
 
I can say that my Presonus Faderport is working fantastically in Studio One.

They say CPU efficiency is better than some but not quite as good as Reaper and Logic.  But they have improved it a lot. If you take the usual precautions of rendering here and there you can still comfortably run pretty massive session.
 
Check this video out for a blast!

Quantum is very good indeed. Focusrite over (Mac) thunderbolt is very similar. I am getting those sort of figures here too.
 
Jarsve your list looks promising. Yes it can do all of it except maybe the track icon thing though. With the track inspector open any selected audio event will have its information displayed including its start time. The format here mirrors the format set for the main time line display. Values can be entered here directly. e.g. timecode frames or bars/beats or time etc..
 
Sylvan yes I believe Melodyne Essentials does all that you see.  Not directly within Studio One itself as far as I can tell. It is not something I have tried or done so it might be worth a look into how Melodyne does it.  Melodyne can tempo map though and fix tuning errors of course.  It is surprising how powerful Meloodyne Essentials actually is.  It pays to get very familiar with it. 
 
I have done up to 32 channel tracking sessions and all without a hitch so in most cases that is all pretty rock solid and flawless.
