PreSonus Audio ElectronicsReviews of presonus.com

A month after buying a PreSonus Studio 1810c, the headphone output started constant squealing and cracking. The mains were fine, so it kept using it. Then channels 1 and 2 died. The unit was replaced. 13 months later (just out of warranty), the replacement's mains were squealing, and direct monitoring stopped working. When it works, they're nice, with good features and sound. But PreSonus gear simply doesn't belong in any setting where profession work needs to be done.

Wow! Presonus is amazing. I own a 6 year old set of Eris 5 studio monitors and about a month ago I got myself the Sub8 subwoofer & a MicroStation BT Bluetooth receiver enabling my smart TV the ability to play streamed audio via Bluetooth. My Presonus devices were all bought from a South African audio store called Tuerk Music (Turnkey). I paired these devices with the Audient iD4 audio interface and the AKG P220 mic. It's all just amazing. The clarity & power of my monitors is still the same as when I'd just broken them in a week after buying them. The bass on the Sub8 is rich & goes down to 28hertz. Which studio sub do you know goes that low at that price range? Presonus is truly an amazing brand. I'm so sad to see a low score for this brand that has benefited me so much over the years. I'm always going to buy Presonus. The range is just Stella, for an example you get the entry level, already amazing.. Eris range, then they've got monitors with ribbon tweeters that are insane (with efforless non fatigue treble) and then you get the Spectre range (I wish one day I can listen to those). Then you get the Temblor 8 inch sub (unlike the Sub8, it's woofer is downwards facing) and the rumbling thunder dome 10 inch Temblor10 (this sub goes even lower in the frequency range). The quality I've come to know & expect from Presonus is just so great. I mean you've seen the amount of products & software this company has created. This is a serious audio company with very competitive prices, quality & performance. Presonus, keep up the astonishing work you're doing. I, personally & based on the many reviews I've read love your products and their impressive performance. Thank you !!

I just wanted to say that I have communicated with PreSonus for products that were out of warranty and even End Of Life. Any contact I've had with any person via phone or text has been very short, unhelpful and they don't seem to be willing to answer direct questions such as information about specific products and or part numbers. PreSonus does not care about the end user at all unless you have brand new equipment that's under warranty and that's really disappointing.

A major issue with a Temblor T10 Active Studio Subwoofer that I bought just before the lockdown in 2020 or maybe slightly earlier. The unit was crackling all the time and had an internal fault. I had bought the unit from somewhere but could not find the invoice. I contacted Presonus technical (One Mr Doyle) and he located where and when I had bought the unit. Sadly by now it was out of warranty. However Mr Doyle helped me tremendously - he raised a return for the unit as a gesture of goodwill. The speaker was returned and Presonus solved the issue very promptly and returned the repaired speaker back to me now operating perfectly. Presonus did not have to do this, but they did not hesitate to help me, which is a very good gesture from any supplier and I think they were exceptional in their support, in their actions and their customer service thanks to Mr Doyle. It really is as good as I or anyone could expect. I remain very grateful that Presonus treated me in the way they did and it is well appreciated. Over the years I have seen very few companies stand by their products in the way that Presonus did on this occasion and they should be commended. I have operated Presonus for a number of years without ANY other problems so they remain highly recommended for their studio equipment.

As a working musician, I can't stress enough how awful PreSonus is. The unit they sent me [ 600£ audio interface ] had numerous issues over the 12 months I had it, it became unusable so I sent it for repair. This took 2 MONTHS! It returned partially fixed and has now become unusable again. Very unhelpful support from Presonus, their technical advisor BUTCH was unhelpful and ignored the questions he didn't want to answer. I'm now left out of pocked with much wasted time. AVOID!!

Leider hat Steinberg mit seiner neuen Kopierschutz Strategie ab Cubase12 den Bogen überspannt. Es sollte sich ja viel getan haben bei Presonus 5.5 . In der Tat wurde am Handling gearbeitet. Die DAW läuft zügig, bei richtigem Rechner. Aber !!!!!! Die VSL Librarys werden zu 80 Prozent gar nicht erkannt. Trotz mehrmaligen scannen und Pfadangaben. Einer der führenden Hersteller weltweit wird hier ausgebremst. Um Presonus zu verwenden, kann man ja auch mal locker auf 5000Euro +Vienna verzichten. Tone2 wird auch nur unvollständig geladen, IKM und auch andere Hersteller. Angepriesen wird, Cubase Projektdateien würden in Presonus erkannt. Die Realität, keine einzige wird erkannt. Es bleibt nur die Möglichkeit über Midi. Die Bearbeitung wäre bei meinem Archiv Wahnsinn. Midicontroller muss bei jeder Sitzung neu angemeldet werden. Wer neu anfängt mit Musik, da kann Presonus eine Empfehlung sein. Leider versucht man seine Instrumente Pakete bevorzugt los zu werden. Die Kunden zu locken. Bis 180Euro im Jahr ist diese Software bei weitem nicht Wert. Bei Steinberg zahlt man bei einem Upgrade 99 Euro. Also geht es lieber weiter mit Cubase11 . Wer eine große Instrumentenbibliothek hat mit verschiedenen Herstellern....keine Empfehlung.

I bought the iris e3.5 desktop monitors. Absolutely phenomenal for the money!

After a while, using Studio ONE 5 from PreSonus Audio, I can say, that it´s a really great DAW, for producing Music (with MIDI and Recording). It runs stabile and I had no problems until now.
