Fender Studio Pro 8 becomes the heart of the new Fender production system, along with a range of audio interfaces and MIDI controllers.
It’s been a long time coming, and this consolidation under Fender will allow the DAW and its peripherals to appeal to a new generation of musicians. If you think back to the recent release of the Fender Studio app, which has now been updated to version 1.2, it makes perfect sense.
Fender Studio Pro 8 and the Rebrand
If you’re a current Studio One user, there’s nothing to worry about. You’re getting the next version of the same familiar DAW platform with a range of enhancements, including overdue UI updates, Fender Mustang, and Rumble native plugins with a huge selection of amps and pedals.
What’s more, there are improvements to software instruments like Impact and SampleOne, and some exciting AI-assisted creative tools for music production. This includes the drum and note extraction processes for converting audio drum hits and melodies into MIDI to be used with other virtual instruments.
There is also a range of integration options for linking Studio Pro with other platforms and hardware devices like the Fender Studio app, which becomes like a little brother, and even the Tone Master Pro pedal can be used as a controller for Studio Pro, while being able to receive program changes from the Show Page.
To accompany the DAW, there is a range of PreSonus audio interfaces and controllers that have been redesigned and rebranded under Fender. This new range includes the Fender AudioBox GO, the Fender Quantum LT and HD audio interface, as well as the Fender Motion MIDI controllers, which are adapted from the PreSonus ATOM series.
Pricing and Availability:
Fender Studio Pro 8 is currently available along with the audio interfaces, while the Motion controllers will follow this Spring, priced between $269.99 and $349.99 MSRP. Get it at Thomann.*
Existing Studio One 7 perpetual license holders can upgrade to Studio Pro 8 for $99.99 / £89.99 / €99.99, while the Fender Studio 1.2 update is free across all platforms.

Again, you will pay more just because of the Fender brand. The audio interfaces are on the level of 2020 technology. Also the midi controllers look very unintuitive.
