Where Does Studio One Save Songs and Projects?

Studio One songs, projects and user data folders in Documents on Windows and macOS.

Last updated

Studio One defaults user data to a Studio One folder in Documents: songs, projects, presets and soundsets each get a subfolder.

Missing media after moves is the classic issue. Identical audio paths on the new machine avoid relinking sessions by hand.

Where Studio One stores this, by platform

Windows
%USERPROFILE%\Documents\Studio One

Holds Songs, Projects, Presets and SoundSets by default. Confirm in Options > Locations when customized. Close the app before copying.

macOS
~/Documents/Studio One

Same default layout. Use Go to Folder in Finder.

Frequently asked questions

How do I move Studio One to a new computer?

Copy the Studio One folder (songs, projects, presets, soundsets) with the app closed. Keep audio files at identical paths or relink missing media afterward.

Where is my Studio One user data really?

Check Studio One > Options > Locations for the live paths. Custom user-data locations override the defaults below; the options panel is authoritative.
