I can't thank you enough. I'm relatively new to Studio One and for a second there I thought my new keyboard was gonna be useless lol. Thanks for such a concise, helpful video!
This was SO helpful. I've been avoiding how to figure this out for 15 years, and your tutorial made it so easy to get value out of old hardware that I had.
I know this vid is old. To top it off, I'm using S1 V2! But I just found this today, and it was a godsend. I got ahold of a neat little 25-yet Synido, and you totally helped me get it going with S1. So Thanks!
This procedure not necessarily work for every controllers. Some controllers use a separate protocol named Mackie for the transport keys (stop, play, record,etc), so in order to use those specific keys you need to create an additional external device using that protocol. Also depending of the OS of your PC ( Windows or MAC) the options you will see could be different.
You my good sir, are a god damn legend. This video was already wonderful and finally got my keyboard keys working properly. And this comment was the cherry on top of the cake. Finally my controller is at 100% working capacity! Thank you!
Thats what i am struggling with right now: Novation LaunchKey 49 (Mackie) and StudioOne 6 Artist. I can record using what i have in software, but not all physical parts are connected, channels overlap,..and so far i can't find any help (maybe blablabla "no problem" and nada). Even with stand-alone plugins (Analogue Lab, Native, Kontakt) the sound just on and off (the connection, buffering or whatever it is). Mapping on Novation site is confusing or "unable" or making everything worse. Of course, i am very new to this (MIDI), ignorant and unexperienced, but there should be some technical support, 'not everyone is born with midi knowledge' ;)
This video helped me out a great deal..I've just started implementing Templates into my work flow to speed things up and realized that I haven't taking full advantage of the faders,knobs, and buttons on my M-Audio Oxygen..this will definitely improve my work flow...Thanks!!!
Great F'n job saved me a huge amount of time. Instead of me having to explain to one of my DAW build clients I simply sent him your video. Big thanks BenoniStudio !
Thanks so much mate!! My nektar impact keyboard was really starting to do my head in after updating studio one and purchasing a new laptop, let the music begin!!
Just what I needed. Had the AKAI MPK249 for a few months. Just added Studio One 5 demo to my HP 2in1 i7. All I need to do is find some time to do the work. Thank you.
Thank you so much for the video. I just installed studio one and was wondering why the heck my controller wasnt responding. Although this is a good way to set things up, it would be much easier if the software recognized things itself, just like others DAWs do.... this seems a little complicated and I don't see the point to it.
This is the most useful video I've seen this year!! This is better and with more details that that actually using a keyboard profile from Presonus. Thanks for sharing your knowledge Benoni
I have a Roland RD 2000: When I try to learn MOD 1, studio one places 4 knobs instead of a MOD wheel. When I try to learn MOD 2, Studio One doesn't do anything. When I try to learn Pitch/Bend, Studio One places 4 knobs. Also, when I right mouse click on Master Volume (or anything) in Studio One, I do not have a assign option, just Automate.
Thank you for the video!! You definitely helped me out on certain details and will get back if I'm stuck! I still have and love working working with my my M Audio Axiom
That video was right on time! Been looking for videos to help me set up my controller, but a lot of them didn't really break it down, and explain it, while really demonstrating it the way you did. Too Cool. Appreciate it. 😎🎵🎼🎵🎸🎹🎶🎤🎧🎷🎸🎺
Before all, thank you for your clear helpful explanation. I have a few problems with my midi keyboard. First, I can't activate my modulation whell. Second, I don't know how to activate the aftertouch in my novation impulse 61.
This tutorial is Amazing! finally and easy way to understand this midi keyboard thing, evertyhing, went easy, i have that same Axiom 61 Model, the only thing that is still not working for me is the pitch bend wheel, and the mod wheel, maybe someone from here can help me out, am struggling with that. THANK YOU SO MUCH!
Excellent video - i am really thankfull to you for uploading this video as i have just purchased launchkey 49 and was searching how to setup midi controls on studio one since last 4-5 days but your video was final for me. thanks a lot its super simple after watching your video . - thanks thanks thanks now i can use all controls in my MIDI launch key 49 ******** i am so happy
Thanks. Solid video that's really helped me in my move from Pro Tools. It'd be nice if Presonus allowed us to edit controller names after they've been entered, to move the buttons to visually match the keyboard's layout, and to have standard Transport icons on the buttons assigned to Transport ... but there's no such thing as perfection :)
Thank you for this tutorial! It was helpful when I started to use Studio one a couple of years ago. Now I have a problem what I can't solve myself. After a reinstallation of Studio one I nedded to remap all midi Knobs and faders again, of course. The problem is when I close an actual session even when I saved it all midi mapping information are lost after reload the saved session. So I am forced to remap all knobs again. How can I fix that?
This was so good, this helped tremendously. I have a follow-up question - When I press a button while MIDI Learn is on, it appears in focus global multiple times - For instance I selected the play/pause button on my keyboard and approx. 10 knobs appeared. The control numbers are different though. Also some functions I press on my keyboard don't even appear in focus global and other functions appear to adjust multiple control knobs. Is there a reason for this? I am using a digital keyboard/Yamaha DGX-670.
Thank you for this very informative video! I am just wondering, will I specifically need a midi keyboard to make this work? I am trying to use my nord keyboard and it doesn't seem to be working. I can assign the different knobs but when I try to manipulate them from my keyboard the assigned action doesn't take effect.
I wonder if this will work with my old Casio XWP1? I've had it since new and it does have a ton of features, plus it may save me some cash in the long run. My Studio Monitors will arrive tomorrow so it should be awhile before I get everything set up.
Thank you, thank you, thank you so, so much. I have been bashing my head against a brick wall for days now after getting an MPK Mini 3 as now I know that the Presonus Studio One 5 has only the information for the original MPK Mini and with the Mini 3 you must have to 'MIDI learn' it.
I still hear my keyboard's default sound along with whatever midi is selected. It's also on a lag so it makes it very difficult to record! How do I shut off my midi's native sound?? Even if I mute all the tracks (including the master) I'm still hearing it!
Thanks for the video. Does anybody know how to assign one fader on keybord to control every track that is currently selected? I saw it a few times in a different videous and find it really comfortable.
The Rewind and Forward buttons on my Nektar keyboard go only when I hold the buttons down and stops when I let go. I think that was super, but how do I assign that to a different controller? I can not find it. Forward bar, but that is not the same. I can not find the on and off for loop button too. Only select loop.
thanks BUT....i have a digital piano, no extra knobs or control buttons. I want to assign unused keys at the top and bottom of the range like they were buttons. How to do that in Studio one?
Hi I'm using the axiom 49 1st edition with usb connected to computer. I'm not getting option of "usb axiom 49" in the recieved from from box. And when I go to learn midi tab it only recognizes a few knobs and faders
I don't have an External button. I noticed you went to edit but you didn't explain why. My keyboard was working. Now I can't get a sound out of it. So frustrating!
I tried your method but still can't get the MPK Mini II knobs to work. The device is sending input but the physical knobs will not change the knobs in the DAW.
Amazing! I suppose now I can uninstall automap for my notation impulse. Works, but it’s so glitchy. What do we do with the mixer since we have only 8 faders? Is there a way to assign pages in groups of 8 ?
I use the same Arturia, did you figure it out? I was able to assign the buttons and Studio One is recognizing them, but if i turn the knobs on the Arturia, it doesn't change the value, just jumping back and forwards a bit :(
Awesome Video!!! Subscribed. Can't wait to check out your other videos! This is probably one of the best instructional videos I've seen. Thanks much!!!
Nice video. I just bought axiom25 after seeing this video as i wanted the transport and expression pedal. Something weird happening though. Its making me hit the PLAY, stop, etc transport buttons twice to start playing. Anyone else had this going on? Seems the first time i press button it sends a CC 127 and second time a CC 0 and then back again to 127
Followed this tutorial in Studio One and the Transport Buttons work fine but the faders and knobs do not control the audio and Pan. Using the same model Oxygen as in the video. Any thoughts on this problem? I followed the video step by step.
In my case when I move the knobs, faders and buttons on my Midi Controller they don´t appear in the "External Devices" window as your video shows. I remember that once I accidentally delete all that knobs, faders and buttons and now I don´t know how to do for they appear....Could you help me?
I can't thank you enough. I'm relatively new to Studio One and for a second there I thought my new keyboard was gonna be useless lol. Thanks for such a concise, helpful video!
This was SO helpful. I've been avoiding how to figure this out for 15 years, and your tutorial made it so easy to get value out of old hardware that I had.
The best and easy to digest tutorial ever. Damn these controllers are so complicated but you did everything right in this video. Good Job.
I know this vid is old. To top it off, I'm using S1 V2! But I just found this today, and it was a godsend. I got ahold of a neat little 25-yet Synido, and you totally helped me get it going with S1. So Thanks!
After all these years I finally found someone to explain how to assign midi! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!
Sure. Enjoy 👍
Bravo! Still works in 2024 for MPC Key 37 and Studio One 7. I just can't use the MPCs knobs but it works for transport buttons Rec, Stop, and Play
This procedure not necessarily work for every controllers. Some controllers use a separate protocol named Mackie for the transport keys (stop, play, record,etc), so in order to use those specific keys you need to create an additional external device using that protocol.

thank you! one year after i bought a Alesis V49, now i know how to intigrate these knobs and buttons :D
Thanks so much mate!! My nektar impact keyboard was really starting to do my head in after updating studio one and purchasing a new laptop, let the music begin!!
Same here lol. Updates often ruining everything and make certain hardware not work correctly anymore!
Best video ever. THIS IS HOW YOU MAKE A TUTORIAL PEOPLE!
Finally a straight forward complete setup tutorial…Alesis QX49 is locked and loaded!!!👍🥂😁
S1 is really straight forward. But this, I'd never have figured out without your video!
Even though I am still having issues, this video pointed me in the right direction.
one of the best tutorial i ever saw!!!!!! thank you verry much, great job.

straight to the point . informative video thx mate
thanks for watching 👍
my keyboard has speakers, so the sound comes from the keyboard, instead of my pc. how do i change the sound output?
Wow. Super helpful and quick
Hi! Are you able to use "Pot Pickup or "MIDI Takeover" feature on StudioOne with this way of MIDI controller setup? Because, I cannot.
I still hear my keyboard's default sound along with whatever midi is selected. It's also on a lag so it makes it very difficult to record! How do I shut off my midi's native sound?? Even if I mute all the tracks (including the master) I'm still hearing it!
Best video on that !!! 👏👏🙌🙌Thank you 🍷
Just the info I needed. Thank you.
Thank you, been having problems adding my AxiomPro 61.
Thank you So Much! This was Very Helpful! Keep up the Great work!
Can the sustain function of a Virtual piano be assigned to any button on the midi keyboard? (I don't have a sustain pedal)
Very helpful! Thanks a lot.
Oh my god, thank you so much for this video!
This is the information I was looking for! Amazing, this has helped so much. Thank you
You are a life saver! Thanks dude. Nice information. Keep up!

How do you assign a fader to control the selected channel's volume in the mixer?
I don't have an External button. I noticed you went to edit but you didn't explain why. My keyboard was working. Now I can't get a sound out of it. So frustrating!
Is the MiIDI Learn feature only in S1 Professional? I don't have that option in the basic S1.
I tried your method but still can't get the MPK Mini II knobs to work. The device is sending input but the physical knobs will not change the knobs in the DAW.
Im getting the input from my sustain pedal but it's not getting sustained. Did all the things through google nothing worked. Any solution?
Thanks dude. Didn’t know I could do this. Really helpful.
Amazing! I suppose now I can uninstall automap for my notation impulse. Works, but it’s so glitchy. What do we do with the mixer since we have only 8 faders? Is there a way to assign pages in groups of 8 ?
