Send to Studio One from Notion
File>Send to Studio One dialog, in Notion 6.4
Send note data to Studio One
Do you “think in notation” but need to ultimately use a DAW? Now you can compose in Notion and then send note data
(MIDI and other note related information) straight over to Studio One - whether it’s running on the same computer, or to
an open instance of Studio One anywhere on the network.
1. Open Studio One either on the same machine, or a machine on the same network
2. In Notion, go to File>Send to Studio One (or Cmd/Ctrl + Shift + U)
3. Select whether to merge into an existing song (overwriting a previous transfer) or to create a new document
4. Notion will now transfer the note information and transfer it to Studio One
5. In Studio One the document is now ready for you to assign sounds, and retains the following from Notion:
• Notes - pitch, duration, velocity
• File name
• Instrument (score) order
• Instrument names
• Tempo track*
• Initial metronome mark
• Initial Key signature
• Keyswitches (see 9.13, “sending Note-os”)
• VST information - if you have a matching VST enabled in both Notion and Studio One, they will be loaded on
transfer, PLUS, any parameters you have changed will also be sent. Ensure you have the VSTi you are using in
Notion also enabled in Studio One
If you want to send an extract or short idea rather than the whole score, just make a selection in the score rst
before opening the Studio One dialog - note that the selection will then appear in Studio One at the start of the song,
rather than at its relative position
*Not sent on subsequent transfers when merging into an open document
