FaderPort™ Multichannel Production Controllers
Studio One Support
Studio One oers native support for FaderPort 8 and FaderPort 16. This document is an overview of all remote-control functions currently supported, as well as step-by-step instructions for the hardware setup. Additional information about the FaderPort Multichannel Production Controllers can be found in the Owner’s Manual, available at www.PreSonus.com and in your My PreSonus account.
By default, your FaderPort is congured for Studio One. No further device setup is required.
If you have changed the FaderPort’s Operating Mode and would like to return to using it with Studio One, press the rst two Select buttons while powering on your unit.
Press the Select button below Studio One.
Note: In addition to Studio One, this operation mode should be used with other DAWs that provide native FaderPort support. A complete list of native-support DAW applications is available at www.presonus.com.
Once you have selected your mode, press the Select button below the “Exit” screen to reboot your FaderPort. This mode will be selected automatically every time you boot your FaderPort.
The FaderPort is a class-compliant device in both macOS® and Windows®. Simply connect your FaderPort to a free USB port on your computer. No further installation is necessary.
