Mine eyes ! They're blinded.

I've heard that variety is the best policy in the spices of
life. Or something like that.
Hey AJ. I'm working on PreSonus Studio One. Haven't cranked it
up for a few months. So now I'm having to uninstall, delete some
folders, and delete something in the Registry Editor. It's
annoying pain in the ass shit, but I'm accepting that if I want
to use something like this with its quirks, I'd best embrace it.
That means develop a familiarity with the general stuff. So I'm
starting a file (paper) folder with notes I make - this is so I
won't have to reinvent the wheel.
I'm visiting the PreSonus forms. Getting advice. It's humbling.
Sometimes the guys offering technical advice get testy with a
neophyte's sloppiness. In my case I didn't read the instructions
carefully enough and didn't delete the Roaming folder. Now I've
deleted it and everything else. Did a complete shutdown and
started up again (not Restart !). And Studio One is still not
opening - it stalls out at "Starting Midi Engine". I'll maybe
end up with tech support.
I'll keep you posted.

I have zero experience with PreSonus. Have you tried asking any
questions at HC? I know Craig Anderton is real familar with it
and if I remember correctly, Mark Longworth did his whole last
album with PreSonus. Might be worth a visit to The Asylum to ask
him for some knowledge. I'm assuming it's still open. Haven't
even checked in over 6 months now.

This problem doesn't seem to fall in the realm of one piece of
sage advice. It seems to more tedious. I'm going to try the
advice from PreSonus forumites for a while longer, then if no
success I'm try PreSonus tech support. This is the bullshit
that some people complain about with the USB recording
interfaces. But I want to be able to do edits from the
computer.

It is tedious to the point of pain actually. I'm talking digital
recording generally here. [emoji88] Makes me wish for simpler
times when I could actually splice tape together. I feel though,
that the more you dig into it, the tasks will get simpler with
familiarity.
That's what I've been told anyway. You're a smart guy, with a
computer background so I'm sure you'll get the "AHA!" moment
before long.

Thanks for your vote of confidence. I opened a PreSonus support
ticket. The slings and arrows of using technology. As a
lifelong musician, I just prefer to musish. But if I want to
use this stuff, I have to work thru these problems.
I don't think I mentioned another issue. I bought an HP version
of the MS Surface Pro tablet. I guess you'd call it a clone.
Then I purchased an app called StaffPad. It allows you to
notate music with your stylus and (theoretically) changes your
hand/stylus notation to engraved styled notation. Of course it
doesn't work as well as the YouTube demos.

I wish I'd taken the time to learn how to read and write music.
I admire those that can. Perhaps if and when I retire I'll dig
into that...Well...I say that...[emoji849] But I probably
won't...Lol....
What would be cool would be to some day have a guitar with a hex
pickup. There are programs where what you played on the guitar
could be transferred into notation. I actually have done that
with my little Akai keyboard. It's just taking Midi information
and transcribing it. Kinda cool.
Wanted to talk more.....But...I'm on call and just got another
call while I was typing this. [emoji852]

Well if you take up a music study, I'll be able to assist if I
can at any time. I don't know everything but I know some
things.
Did I tell you I joined a little chess group. We meed at a
church. I told em I'm an out of the closet atheist - when
someone brought up Sunday school.

Ha! I bet that sent their game off a bit!
And don't sell yourself short on musical knowledge...I think
you're a veritable fount of standard musical knowledge. If I
were to do what you suggested, you'd be my go to guy to be
sure..

HeyJ, I finally got my PreSonus Studio 26 launching. I should
say, the tech support guy got it up and launching. I'm going to
play around with it. My 1st goal is to record some percussion
parts I can use to play along with on the piano.
Will keep you posted.

A resource that's free is called "Looperman". It has a veritable
cornocopia of FREE downloadable percussion loops.
