Hi All
New to Studio One forum,I am using pro tools 11 at the moment but thinking of having a go at Studio One, my question does the digi 003 rack work with studio one as an interface, I am on OSX.
Kind Regards
Mark.

I'm gonna say yes, but you can see for yourself, download the demo and give it a try.

thanks for the reply, but be good to hear from others that are maybe working with the 003 rack on mac osx.
Cheers

Studio One 2 will access any audio hardware device via the manufacturer-supplied ASIO (Windows PC) or Core Audio (Mac OS X) device driver software. So as long as you can get the Core Audio driver, you should be good to go.
Though, as musician2373 mentioned, downloading the demo is really the quickest, easiest way to confirm it for yourself. You can find that download on the following page: http://www.presonus.com/products/studio-one/download
However, if you'd like to try and wait for a response from someone else with a setup similar to yours, this is certainly the right place!

so will the Digidesign/Avid Digi 003 Interface work with Studio One Version 3.0?
Im looking for a new interface and I saw one of these for a good price. I was either going for one of these or possibly an 8 Channel line mixer with USB.
I need something a bit larger than 2 channels for my own production although I was going to pickup a 2 channel persons again to use for portable recording sessions

Providing you have the right OS version e.g. looks like on a MAC it only goes up to Sierra for example you should be OK. (Note: Don't rule out High Sierra or even the later MAC OS either. Just because they are not listed in the Avid drivers page does not mean they won't work either. It won't hurt to just install the driver anyway. You won't do any harm. It will either work or not and most often it will!)
You might be able to map some of the faders and things to Studio One as well.
Don't forget there are total of 8 inputs. 4 Mic and 4 Line and 8 outputs as well. I assume you don't mean the rack but the desktop version.
003 has an optical connection both ways which means if you add something like the Behringer 8200 which will give you an extra 8 inputs and outputs for very reasonable money you can expand your 003 out a fair bit. The Behringer 8200 has Midas preamps in it by the way if you are wondering about quality. It sounds excellent. So you could end up with 12 Mic Ins or 16 line INs and 16 outs. Would not be hard to get 4 channels of Mic Pres either (from a reasonable mixer with direct outs) and end up with 16 Mic input channels.
003 also has Midi IN and 2 Midi OUTS which means up to 32 channels of external synth hardware can be addressed at once. You could add a few powerful external synths to this too.
Otherwise look at some of the excellent PreSonus interface range. Things like Quantum maybe. With one or two ADAT optical Mic preamps attached you can end up with 24 input channels. This will be a more modern interface with better sounding converters than the 003 era. Not only that Quantum offers blistering latency which is great for input monitoring ultra fast with no delays.
You may find for very fast input monitoring the 003 may not be so great but a modern interface will be. Quantum also has very tight integration with Studio One. Remote control of your Quantum! Or maybe the Studio Series 1824 for example might be a good alternative. Not so expensive. Half the price here. Still a great interface.
