Which Studio One plugin work in Sonar ?

There's always ReWire, I reckon. I wouldn't know...

Yeah I tested that out, even my addictive drums 2 wouldn't open in studio one, so I contacted presonus customer support, aparrently the basic studio one artist doesn't allow 3rd party plugins, you need to upgrade to be able to use 3rd party plugins........so I guess Addictive drums 2 and other xln producticts, melodyne  yeah, only 3rd party will work in studio one........however I just installed reaper trial, and everything 3rd party automatiacally loaded up.......

Which plugins were you wanting to use?

Nothing specially, just checking if there are any benefits from buying S1 if I fortunately never have to leave Sonar.

not only did my 3rd party plugins load up for reaper but so did all my sonar vsts plugins,fx etc....and I think its only $50..............and yes I tried to use studio one loops in sonar a while ago, and I couldn't....it didn't let me

Many Studio One loops take the form of what they call a Soundset.  It is a special proprietary Studio One format. But there is a workaround although a little long. You can audition a loop from a Soundset and play it of course without dragging it out at all. If you find one you like then drag it out and then you can bounce that loop down very fast and it will appear inside the Bounces folder in your session as a standard wave file.
 
I am not suggesting that you do that for every loop as that would take a while. But what can do is audition them pretty easy in Studio One though and then if you find something you really like you can do the bounce operation and get it that way for a another DAW.
 
I have checked and it is not possible to unpack a Soundset as yet. You can pack a Soundset from a whole bunch of wave files though (your own) and create one.  You need to install the SoundSet builder to do it though. You don't have to build a Soundset either. You can just put a stack of wave files in a folder and Studio One will still let you audition them etc (and drag them out) just like the Soundset loops.

The only plugin that is truly a game changer ( if you don't already own something similar) is sample one if one does genres that rely on being able to quickly load samples.

Thank you for taking the time to explain all that Jeff
 
From what you have said , one real nice thing I get out of what you said  is Studio One can be one very effective tool where a person can create all their own original content from using the tools that are provided ...
SONAR was like that for me also where I could use the full power of the DAW to create my own sounds and loops from scratch ...sort of like using the DAW as a pallet of sound colors ...
 
I'm looking forward to learning my way around SO3 ....it is all still so new too me ..
I do like the idea of being able to create and pack up self created Sound Sets  .....
I may even be able to put the songs thing on hold for a while and be able to release some specific guitar sounds and playing enhancement product that way ...
 
all the best

Thanks for the tip. I've not really looked into Sample One. I tend to favor Ableton's Session View, drum racks, and Simpler for working with loops and samples. Mixcraft's Performance Panel looks pretty interesting, too.

I would rate simpler slightly better for working with loops, but sample one is better for fl studio type worlflow.

That would be very nice of you Kenny.  And you can upload any sound sets to the Presonus exchange.  I should also mention there is a ton of free stuff up there on the Presonus exchange as well which is all freely downloadable. There are some amazing sound sets up there that others have created. (not in the original sound sets that come with Studio One)
 
It is well worth downloading all the available sounds and sound sets too as part of your Studio One purchase. Over 20G I think.  Just take your time to work through it all.  There is a huge Presence XT library as well as a lot of loops. 

Thank you Jeff ,
 
Yes I wanted to be very sure that I placed the full program on my computer ..I want it all .....
I happen to enjoy taking my time poking around with "a new to me program "   w out placing any unreasonable expectations on myself ...
It is a given that there will be so much unfamiliar to me type of stuff going on I willingly choose to enjoy the whole process of discovery ...
I have found out that "not knowing " can be a place , and a state of mind that offers a lot of freedom ..
Not knowing sure beats trying to force my will on a totally new workflow and DAW environment 
 
Yes , I will take your advice seriously and look into your suggestion of checking out the Presonus exchange 
 
all the best ,

Maybe not Right Forum ......But HEY...These are 'Desperate Times'.
I am in the early stages of Demoing S1 and whilst 'Smilingly' enjoying the Demoes... I have found a problem.
I am a live performer ( OK....along with my better half) and use Roland SD50 Mobile Studio Canvas hardware as our backing track hardware.
Over many years....Have used Sonar to great affect in editing Mid files.
With Sonar ......you could pick your Midi output (ie: SD50) and it would contentedly play your files through the SD50 to a similar audio spread to that which you would experience on Gig Night.
To those of you with a more advanced level of experience in SD1 ........particularly if you use an ext Midi output device ........ Why is my midi sound module NOT Working.
As of today...used the SD50 with Sonar and Reaper.....No worries ...............hooks up and everything fine.
I suppose I Don't even know what specific question to ask as S1 is a new player in my IT learning.
Cheers......Frank
