Fingers crossed for at least more options to customize the GUI if not a revamp.

You mean the color / contrast or the actual design of it?
I was annoyed when the new 3.0 design was introduced with its white on black approach (ask any print ad designer why...), but I would be even more annoyed if this time the whole design was put in a blender and came out looking totally unfamiliar and alien all together. No offense to aliens.
Let's hope for excellence in design and performance that matches its advertised claims as well as meeting or exceeding the industry standard in terms of CPU load, MIDI timing and overall stability.
I'm relatively happy with 3.54 (not 3.56), so I don't need to upgrade unless there's a real incentive to do so. I don't need a lot of bells and whistles, just ease of use and crash free performance.
As much as I have griped about Studio One in the past, I still use it every day over anything else because they did get a lot of things right the first time out. From what I understand, it was also the official DAW used by Prince Charles to record his "Straight Out Of Buckingham" rap album.
[Okay, I just lied. But it was for a worthy cause - humor.]

Don't make jokes like this. Now I want to hear this so bad...

WORD.
It's not like the version 3 development would ever have reached a single, stable update. Simply inadequate code, and the "clients are beta-testers"-policy is very unethical, still.
I dunno what the heck happened, since v2 was perfect. Never ever crashed on me.
I have e.g. a song file I cannot open with the latest version, as it simply crashes after a minute.

I have had no stability issues with V3. I would say your system is having issues, not Studio One. I support dozens of people a day and any stability issues I see are most times system related and rarely Studio One related.
As to what you describe above, it sounds like a 3rd party plugin is having issues. That's my experience with my support group. But let me know if I can help in any way.

Actually, I wasn't joking about that part. He's dropping the single "Bitch Slap My Tax Paying Hoes" in late August in conjunction with an aggressive guerrilla social media marketing campaign.
I'm already lined up outside the palace, waiting anxiously to hear the sound of the kick drum in the opening beat.
Lawrence wroteYou may (or not, you didn't really say) have given up too soon. Sometimes when you update Studio One and have issues trashing the application settings can clear it up.
Some of these issues are real, we who aren't fanboys ("been using it 8 years, never had an issue!" ) surely know that. The thing (as with all tech) is to try to figure out why x% of people have a particular issue and the other x% don't, when they're all telling the truth. It gets to be difficult at times as computers are like fingerprints, no two are identical once people start using them.
But yeah, I'm a big Studio One fan, but not a blind fanboy. I know for sure that these reports are not just being made up.

Haha. I have a real life but thanks for your concern anyway.
I knew there was a reason I'd taken a really long break from trying to help people here, and now I remember why.

I can also say from extensive use of other DAWs for many years that no DAW is immune from this kind of issue of course.
