A consistent starting point
Studio preferences
Set the defaults that help a new project feel closer to your musical taste.

What it does
Studio preferences let you set defaults such as key, tempo feel, kick level, genre, and arrangement density. They give a project a more consistent starting point before you begin refining it.
How to use it
- 1Set the musical and production defaults you reach for most often.
- 2Start a project with those defaults available as context.
- 3Keep adjusting the session by ear once material is on the timeline.
Useful when
- You repeatedly begin in a familiar tempo range, energy level, or palette.
- You want fewer blank-slate decisions at the start of a session.
Try it in a real session.
Start with an idea, then keep the project open long enough to make it yours.
