*** IMPORTANT NOTE:
Please note that there is a difference between downloading, installing, and activating a particular version of Studio One, in order to unlock that version’s features and content.
When you download and install Studio One from any source, you are installing the build of that version - 6.0, 6.0.1, 6.1.0, 6.2.3, 6.3.2, etc. In order to unlock the core content for your registered version - Demo, Artist, or Professional - you must activate the installed build using the 28-digit product code or the offline 16-digit product key depending on your type of activation. The process of activation will then release the content for the registered version within Studio One once properly activated.
* Below you will find instructions on downloading and installing Studio One from your user account. The online and offline activation process is linked below at the bottom of this article.
* The build located for download in your user account will always be the latest build available for that registered version.
* If you are planning to do an offline installation and activation of Studio One, after you download the Studio One installer to an online computer, you will need to put the Studio One installer onto a USB drive, and transfer the installer to the computer that is offline. Then, install.
