Studio Pro
Studio Pro
Description
Integrates with Studio Pro via a custom User Device using Studio Pro's native MIDI controller protocol. Includes command and selected-channel bindings. Requires Studio Pro 8 or later.
Setup
Studio Pro is Fender's rebranded successor to PreSonus Studio One. The MetaGrid Pro integration uses the same custom MetaSystem User Device. MetaServer installs it directly into Studio Pro's User Devices folder; you then add it inside Studio Pro's preferences.
If you're still using PreSonus Studio One, see Studio One Setup instead.
Install the User Device
Step 1: Open MetaServer
Open MetaServer → Integrations → Studio Pro.
Step 2: Install the User Device
In the Integration Components card, click Install on the MetaSystem User Device row. MetaServer copies the metasystem folder into:
- Mac:
~/Library/Application Support/Fender/Studio Pro <version>/User Devices/ - Windows:
%APPDATA%\Fender\Studio Pro <version>\User Devices\
The row turns green once the copy finishes.
Tip: If the button isn't enabled, launch Studio Pro once so it creates its application-support folder, then come back to MetaServer.
Configure Studio Pro
Step 1: Open Preferences
In Studio Pro, open the Preferences window (Mac: Command + ,, Windows: Ctrl + ,).
Step 2: Go to External Devices
Select the External Devices tab.
Step 3: Add the Device
Click Add. In the device browser, expand the MetaSystem folder and select MetaGrid.
Step 4: Assign MIDI Ports
Set Receive From and Send To to Metasystem - StudioPro - In/Out (Mac) or the corresponding LoopMIDI ports (Windows).
Step 5: Confirm
Click OK. Studio Pro can now receive commands from MetaGrid Pro.
Menu Commands (Mac Only)
The Menu Command action gives direct access to every Studio Pro menu item. Create a button, add a Menu Command action, and select the desired command. No MIDI configuration needed.
