Fender Musical Instruments Corporation (FMIC) has announced a significant milestone in its evolution of creative tools, introducing Fender Studio as a new brand and unifying PreSonus® Studio One Pro and its renowned recording interfaces together under the Fender name. Starting this year, Studio One Pro becomes Fender Studio Pro, while the Quantum and AudioBox Go lines transition to the Fender Quantum Series and Fender AudioBox Go.
“For more than a decade, Studio One Pro has set the standard for modern music production,” said Max Gutnik, Chief Product Officer, FMIC. “Its balance of power, creativity and ease of use has inspired countless artists and shaped how music is made today. With Fender Studio Pro, we are taking those celebrated features and enhancing them with a modernized interface, Fender’s award-winning amp and effects models and new intuitive workflows and capabilities that make creating music faster, more inspiring and more connected than ever.”
The reimagined Fender Studio Pro environment introduces an updated visual design, native Fender amp and effects plugins, a new channel overview for faster mixing workflows, updated samplers and AI powered audio-to-note conversion for layering sounds and inspiring intelligent chord technology for creative songwriting. For artists, producers and engineers, this move represents more than a name change. It brings together the trusted performance of PreSonus hardware and software with Fender’s deep legacy in tone and musical expression.
Combining Studio One Pro’s celebrated features and trusted performance with a new modernized interface and intuitive workflows, Fender Studio Pro 8 features Fender’s renowned amps and effects models that make creating music faster, more inspiring and connected than ever. Available exclusively in the Fender Studio app and Fender Studio Pro, the Mustang and Rumble Native plugins offer 57 guitar and bass amp models and hundreds of effects for players to find their sound.
From iconic instruments and amplifiers to award-winning digital platforms like Tone Master Pro and Fender Play, Fender remains dedicated to inspiring generations of artists and creators through technology, tone and timeless design. The new Fender Studio brand represents the next evolution of that vision, where tradition and innovation meet in the service of creativity.
