Kundrus was one of the developers for initial versions of Cubase, and established concepts for the first version of Nuendo.

Although development for this follow-up began in 2004, it transitioned in 2006 to a cooperation between PreSonus and KristalLabs Software Ltd., a start-up founded by former Steinberg employees Wolfgang Kundrus and Matthias Juwan. Studio One originally began development under the name K2, as a follow-up to the KRISTAL Audio Engine. History Early development and release (2004–2011) The Professional edition is also available as part of the Studio One+ monthly subscription program.

In addition to the commercial editions of the software (known as Studio One Artist and Studio One Professional), PreSonus also distributes a free edition, with reduced functionality (known as Studio One Prime). Initially developed as a successor to the KRISTAL Audio Engine, it was acquired by PreSonus and first released in 2009 for macOS and Microsoft Windows. Studio One is a digital audio workstation (DAW) application, used to create, record, mix and master music and other audio, with functionality also available for video.
