Fender Studio—a free, features-packed mobile DAW

Drop the vocal fry.

I tried it on my ipad and the tones I get from it are so much better than bias fx2. I wish there are more choice for drive and fx. I'd buy a "pro" version if it's one time payment and more drive and fx

is there any delay while strumming?

It has taken me years to arrive at a pro level DAW, custom PC, top dollar interface and top notch FX amp simulator - none of it free of course.
This is amazing thank you. I have shared your excellent demo tube with those worthy. 😃

Love the guitar playing. Feel and great touch.

Great little app. One concern I have - I have voice memos going back to 2012. Will Fender be supporting this app in ten years? Fifteen?
No matter how rough the sound quality of the recordings in my voice memo app are, they are there as long as I have an iPhone.

Hi, does anyone know if this app works with another brand's interface? In my country, the original interface is very expensive.

Very nicely presented. Thankyou so much. Do you know if you can use the Fender Mustang Micro for the I/O connection from the guitar to the app?

Plan to use this on my iPad, but cable provided does not have a lightning connector. What options are available?

Question: if you connect your phone by bluetooth to your hi fi , will you get the sound on speakers instead of headphones?

Very good review. 👍

Fender please port presonus to linux
So i can dump windows

Where did u plugin ur guitar into

The latency values from Android & Apple are completely different. Apple 64 to 512, Android 96 to 768. Have you been able to get the tuner to work? Thanks for the demo.

I can't get it to see my usb/guitar input on my iPad. Audio input selection on the guitar track is not selectable. It works ok on my iPhone. I'm not using an interface. I don't need to with my other iPad DAW apps.

Having just purchased an iRig....I love this

Haven't played my Ibanez electric since I bought it in Japan in 1985 (Navy)...I'm too cheap to buy an amp, I play acoustic really. I'll have to dust it off and give this a shot with headphones! cool! Subbed and liked! ( Oh my Gosh! I just realized my New Guitar is 40 years old! Maybe I should sell it >>>)

Can i use my Scarlett solo as interface here? I dont want to buy fender i/o lol

Already downloading the app, but my preset choice are only 4 presets no bassman nor sonic

How about using a microphone?

Nice-sounding Tele, great demo! I'm coming from Garageband and this is an app I'll definitely be downloading.

Haven’t got to try the app yet, but it Would be cool if you could also use a mic like a Shure MV88

How did you add the drums? Could I use my BeatBuddy between the IO and guitar.

Good video (I subscribed), but not impressed by Fender. I despise Apple, but bought an iPad just to have garage band. Given the age of GarageBand, one would think Fender could at least match it, but nope, I’ll stick with GarageBand for now.

Thanx for the video, your channel is great!!

Now that's a DAW. It can export WAV files.

I don't have the mobile guitar interface, when I want to record a second track it automatically re-records the first one since it is coming out of the iphone speakers, but somehow I need to hear the first track, any ideas?? thanks

As of recently, the Galaxy Store doesn't support it. I just checked.

Can you see my face?

Can you import any audio file? Or does need to be any particular format?

When I add effects I don't hear them in the headphones but just only after when I listen to the recorded track.
I'm plugged with Link I/O and the headphones are connected to its mini jack output.
I also tapped the monitor button which turned blue.
Anyone knows whats wrong?

Hi Emily, I downloaded this as soon as I heard about it. The first thing that I noticed was its similarity to Studio one, which is not surprising since Fender now owns Presonus. It's clear that S1 tech was used to code this. What is perplexing, though, is my inability to use the Presonus revelator io44 with it. Every time that I try to do so, the app locks up and requires a phone reboot to set things straight again. I am using a pixel 7 with the latest OS which should be sufficient. I really don't want to have to buy yet another interface (i.e. the Fender IO) to make this work. If you have the ear of Fender, perhaps you could get them to look into this. Thanks for the video.
An update:
I downloaded the PreSonus universal control app and attempted to use that to change settings on my revelator io44 (specifically to 'multi mode'). The app did not even recognize the io44. In fact, when I closed the app and then attempted to use the fender studio app again with the IO 44, it locked the phone up requiring a reboot. But performing that, reboot was very difficult. At first the phone would not power down, and then when it did, it would not reboot for some time. That was disconcerting to say the least. PreSonus clearly has some bugs to work out with regard to both of those apps. The universal control app in particular has one of the lowest ratings I've ever seen for an app. I would say that, for the time being, you spare yourself the heartache of a bricked phone, and not use this software. While it is a very attractive concept to be able to multi-track on your phone, this system is buggy. Probably better to just buy a dedicated recorder like the zoom r4 or something.

Amazing!!!❤

Prolly..? What's that..?

What a lovely presentation. Thanks for sharing. Keep up the great work.

Maybe it's not available in the UK? I can't see it in the Google store. Ah well, it was a nice dream. A great video tho, and I like your playing.

Have they pulled the app on Android as I can't find it either on Google play or the Samsung app store? Not even with the links in the description.

Instead of the Fender Link IO, can I use my Fender Mustang Micro as an interface?

I've been waiting for a review of this before downloading it. Thanks.

That is pretty slick and I never heard of it!

Sorry, just moved the likes off "666"!

That’s a very pretty tele color!

Ooh, interesting! Have downloaded. Am using GarageBand plus an irig/fender mustang micro/iPhone as my portable ‘sketch out songs’ set up - but this looks like a better phone landscape layout, plus I’d be able to simplify the gear by leaving the mustang micro out. 

Sharing/collaboration workflow will be the thing for me I think. This is available beyond Apple (great - a couple of folk I do stuff with aren’t on that), but can’t get my head round whether I could file share (eg so singer goes in and records just that track) as opposed to export the whole project and get them to add the track and export it back to me. I think only the second option? Definitely looking forward to testing it all out in any case - ta for the vid!

The biggest point of interest for me, and probably a lot more musicians in the same boat, is that Fender supported Linux with this. There are multitudes of Linux musicians that would find this helpful. I've already downloaded Fender Studio onto my desktop, an HP from 2019 running Zorin OS 17.3, and it installed with zero issues. It recognized my Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 as both Input and Output.

Android ?

Wow thank you!

Will the Positive Grid’s RIFF work in place of the Fender Link I/O?

Seems like this offers way too much to be free for too long, but it is completely awesome
