Amazing!
"I have been playing with Harmony Wizard for a couple weeks. I love the easy way to change chords, or just manipulate notes in so many ways. I am still learning. I'll do another review when I've learned more. You did a great job developing the program. Thank you, Lukas!"

Helps me a lot with composing and great support from Lukas
"This is going to help me with many things and when I couldn't understand something (my fault tbh 😊), Lukas answered the same day and explained perfectly! There is a lot in this program and well worth the purchase. Brilliant product and support!"
Review on PayhipFinn W.
Great addition to Studio One
"A fantastic addition for producers, composers, and songwriters looking to enhance their tracks with harmonies. While it may not replace the precision of manually arranged harmonies, it significantly speeds up the creative process and provides a solid starting point for vocal and instrumental harmonization."

A Terrific Boost for Production!
"Although it will take a little while to master every benefit offered by Harmony Wizard, even after only 48 hours of use it is making my job much easier. I know what I want my music to sound like but I do not have a post graduate degree in music theory! So Harmony Wizard will make the sound I want infinitely more accessible!"

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Harmony Wizard?
Harmony Wizard is an add-on for PreSonus Studio One that introduces over 30 new MIDI editing functions designed specifically for working with chords and harmonies. It's the first-ever tool to enhance Studio One's piano roll editor with new capabilities. Whether you're composing, songwriting, beatmaking, or scoring, Harmony Wizard provides powerful tools to streamline your workflow and elevate your music.
Who is this product for?
Harmony Wizard is designed for anyone who works with MIDI and chords. If you're not well-versed in harmonies, Harmony Wizard acts as your personal assistant, helping you discover new chords for your song, explore alternative chord progressions, or make your existing chords more interesting. For experts in chords and music theory, Harmony Wizard is a powerful toolbox, allowing you to easily invert chords, select individual voices, transform voicings, prepare chords for compositions, and perform extensive edits.
How can a product be suitable for everyone? New users want quick solutions, while experts seek extensive options and settings...
When developing Harmony Wizard, the goal was to create a product that caters to both needs. The over 30 new Studio One commands offer a range of complex options, providing a rich playground for advanced users, professionals, and enthusiasts.
For those who prefer quick results without the need to navigate through many settings, Harmony Wizard includes a easy-to-use macro toolbar. This toolbar is organized into categories like Insert Chords, Edit Chord Notes, and Time & Rhythm, offering quick one-click presets that allow you to get started immediately.
(Advanced users can also create their own presets and assign them to keyboard shortcuts or macro buttons for even greater efficiency.)
Is this a macro pack for Studio One?
Not at all. Macros can only use functions already existing in Studio One, they cannot add entirely new functionality to Studio One. Harmony Wizard, however, adds more than 30 new note editing (MIDI) commands to Studio One's piano roll editor. It's based on the same technique as the native note actions built into Studio One.
Is this a PreSonus product?
No, it's a 3rd-party product developed by Lukas Ruschitzka.
Who is Lukas Ruschitzka?
Lukas Ruschitzka is a composer, pianist and software developer. He has been working with Studio One since the very first version and some say there's no one else who knows Studio One as thoroughly as Lukas Ruschitzka. In 2018, he also contributed to Studio One's MIDI editing features as a software developer. As a composer and sound designer, he has produced hundreds of presets, loops and macros for Studio One's factory library. He is also the face behind many of the musicloop construction kits in PreSonus' Symphonic Orchestra add-on.
Is this included for free with a Studio One Pro+ subscription?
No, Harmony Wizard is not included in Studio One Pro+ because it is a 3rd-party product developed by Lukas Ruschitzka, not by PreSonus. Software development requires significant time and effort, and to ensure the ongoing development and improvement of this product, we rely on one-time purchases. Your support keeps Harmony Wizard alive and growing and enables new updates and features in the future.
Is Harmony Wizard compatible with Studio One 5?
Unfortunately, Harmony Wizard is not compatible with Studio One 5. While originally designed for version 5, Harmony Wizard has since evolved to rely on key features that are only available in version 6, making it unfortunately incompatible with Studio One 5. As a result, Harmony Wizard is only compatible with Studio One 6.6.1 or higher.
Can I use Harmony Wizard with Studio One Artist?
Yes, Harmony Wizard is fully compatible with Studio One Artist. However, since the Artist version lacks the Chord Track, 5 of the 38 commands that rely on the Chord Track cannot be used in Studio One Artist. These commands are:
- Insert Bassline from Chord Track
- Insert Chords from Chord Track
- Insert Chords from Chord Track in Loop
- Apply Chords and Scales from Chord Track
- Arrange Chords from Chord Track
On how many computers can I install Harmony Wizard?
You can install it on all devices that you own and on which Studio One is installed.

No. Once you've installed this add-on, it remains installed even if you update to a newer version of Studio One.
What is the Harmony Wizard toolbar and how can I find it?
The Harmony Wizard toolbar is a macro toolbar that is designed to give you a good overview of the most important features of this add-on. To open it, open Studio One's Note Editor, then click on the "Macros" button (it's left to the "Action" menu in the Editor) and in the left drop-down menu, select the "Harmony Wizard" page.
I could not activate Harmony Wizard. I get the message "some items failed to activate".
Please first make sure you're running the latest version of Studio One. Harmony wizard requires Studio One version 6.6.1 or higher. If you still get this message, please restart Studio One and try the activation process again.
I have installed and activated Harmony Wizard, but the Harmony Wizard features don't seem to work as expected.
In this case you should check if Harmony Wizard has been sucessfully activated. Open the Studio One menu and choose "Activate Purchased Items...". If activation has failed, this windows will show Harmony Wizard as an unactivated product and you can select it and activate it again via the Studio One Scripts website. After a restart of Studio One, Harmony Wizard should be available.

Now look for Harmony Wizard in the list of installed products. Here you can see the currently installed version of Harmony Wizard and if you like, you can select it and choose "Uninstall".
Is there help available for all the extensive features?
Yes, I've put a lot of thought into how to provide the most intuitive help for the many features. That's why I've created an online manual that mirrors the Harmony Wizard toolbar. You can click on the various buttons within the manual to get detailed help for each feature. Additionally, you'll find several video tutorials on this page to help you get started.
Can I get a refund if I'm not satisfied with the product?
Unfortunately, we can't offer refunds for our products. We strongly encourage you to read the product description, explore the extensive online manual, and check out the video tutorials and over 100 user reviews before making a purchase. In addition, please make sure that the product is compatible with your version of Studio One. If you have any doubts or questions, we encourage you to ask other users about their experiences and seek help through the Studio One Scripts forum, the Studio One Pro+ community, or the Studio One Facebook groups. If you file a chargeback without contacting us first, we will have to dispute it. We work hard to provide the best products and appreciate your understanding and support.
I have a technical question, how can I contact support?
As a solo developer, I am unable to provide technical email support. Given the volume of up to 100 inquiries per day across various channels, responding to them would make it impossible for me to continue developing new tools and tutorials for Studio One. I have addressed the most common questions in the FAQ and through detailed video tutorials. For more specific or complex questions, I recommend seeking help through the Studio One Scripts forum, the Studio One Pro+ community, or the Studio One Facebook groups. I am active in these communities, along with many other experienced users and experts who are happy to assist.
