BIG NEWS: Legacy Gets One More Weekend

Good news everybody: the legacy studio stays online over the weekend. Our backup team found a workaround.

Publish all of your drafts! Not because you have to, but because some of them probably deserve to finally be heard.

If you have presets from the Flash area created before 2018 that you’d like to carry over, simply open and save them once and you should be fine. Please also make sure to save any bookmarks you want to keep, as bookmarks will not be available in the new studio.

And maybe use the extra time to create one last farewell track for the legacy studio, a final sound, memory, or thought you want to leave behind. We’ll collect these tracks together in a community farewell album.

Also, shoutout to our backup team for making this possible. You guys are 2 lit 🔥😎💯

There will be an option to save templates, but not in the first version

2026-05-20 16:22 · 2026-05-20

We've been spared

2026-05-20 16:37 · 2026-05-20

What is this bookmark thing?

Snad Breugen · reply
2026-05-20 16:41 · 2026-05-20

in the old Studio, you can save any stage of your track as a bookmark. Then continue working on your track and later reopen that exact point via the bookmark and continue from there.

I tried with Chipsynth MD (Megadrive replica) but it crashes on me

2026-05-20 22:28 · 2026-05-20

Wait so would we be able to open old projects in the new studio or will all of my stuff that I plan to release just be gone forever?

2026-05-21 01:15 · 2026-05-21

yes old drafts will be available after being converted to the new studio

2026-05-21 01:21 · 2026-05-21

for the new studio, can the device and sample menu snd stuff be on the right ide cause its lowkey kinda weird on the left side

2026-05-21 02:10 · 2026-05-21

Oh holy crap I was scared. Now im fine. Thunkyy

The respect is utmost, for all the developers
The tool is immersive and a deep history, the tool for to help all ambitious new producers to give them a friendly environment
I respect all the developers for that the what has done with auditool, and hope for that the new beta version, it will have such an impact as the original has had, especially for trap music

respect for the developers whom I wish also a great week and a pay rise (😉)
إن مطوري برنامج AudioTool طموحون ومجتهدون، وأنا أحترمهم من صميم قلبي، إن شاء الله.🙏❤️

I checked the new studio a couple months ago and discovered that there is no chat possibility, no wall, no nothing. just the studio, like in the FL or garage band. maybe that is why audiotoolers like this daw most, because you can chat and connect with people around the globe. and people can upload their tracks and like and discuss about it.
and about the interface, i like it, it is brand new and got an update. but we prefer this interface. So can you keep this interface, but the new part will only appear if you open the studio? we like having walls and posting tracks on an online platform! or maybe keep them both at the same time. who knows!

2026-05-22 04:38 · 2026-05-22

I'm so gonna cry over this in like 3 weeks bro holy hell I have so many memories here.

Judging by the layout of the new studio though it honestly felt very familiar so I'm hoping I don't get too homesick but damn...

2026-05-22 08:34 · 2026-05-22

I just wanted to make sure that you weren’t referring my ‘yes’ to your other comment.

2026-05-22 10:40 · 2026-05-22

i am gonna miss this so badly,
i also would love if there was a setting that turns off device skewering, so it doesnt mess up my entire draft when i want to put a device down.

  • i ran into this problem where when i am dragging notes up and down to match the key, the note would say A# as an example when its actually in B, it doesnt do that in the old studio tho.
2026-05-23 10:17 · 2026-05-23

glad I saw this lol

2026-05-23 14:22 · 2026-05-23

Before May 26th for sure lol

2026-05-23 17:04 · 2026-05-23

Could the old version of audiotool be shunted to something like old.audiotool.com?

2026-05-23 20:40 · 2026-05-23

so just to clarify, unpublished drafts in the old studio will be available in the new studio once it launches? I feel like someone asked this already but I just wanted to make sure

a-records · reply
2026-05-23 21:28 · 2026-05-23

No, after the update there will only be one version.

a-records · reply
2026-05-23 21:29 · 2026-05-23

Yes, all your drafts will be waiting for you in the new Studio.

2026-05-23 23:21 · 2026-05-23

I try to publish my legacy track but the studio wont let me, is it down?

2026-05-24 00:34 · 2026-05-24

do u have a day? in the post you said “through the weekend” what does that mean exactly?

Chonoes · reply
2026-05-24 00:48 · 2026-05-24

i know you dont have an exact time im just trying to get a huge collab out before than

a-records · reply
2026-05-24 07:29 · 2026-05-24

Sorry, but before the launch we don’t have the capacity to deal with issues related to the old studio. What we can offer you is that after the launch, you can publish the track and post it on our wall. And of course we’ll put it on the album too.

a-records · reply
2026-05-24 07:31 · 2026-05-24

We’d rather call it an upgrade, but if that’s how you want to put it, then yes.

a-records · reply
2026-05-24 07:44 · 2026-05-24

Try to finish it before Monday ends in Central Europe. If you want to be 100% sure, it’s better to target the end of Sunday. We cannot provide firm timelines, as there are many uncertain factors affecting the schedule.

No need of bringing it back

No problem, ofcourse you all have a bizzy time, thank you for all the effort!
I think it also can be the high bitrate of the samples I used, its the second track with problems and with both I use these long samples from my Zoom H8 uploaded via probe....

i have a question: in the new studio will we be able to republish tracks? especially from the old studio AND the new studio

Odsen. · reply
2026-05-25 18:50 · 2026-05-25

No, it will be atomically desintegrated.

2026-05-25 22:14 · 2026-05-25

Let's gooooo - actually sad to say goodbye to the old studio tho, it's been a nice ride. Huge thanks to the AT team for making this new studio finally come true, what an achievement !

2026-05-26 00:30 · 2026-05-26

if we already have tracks on the new studio, will they be affected?
