PreSonus digital audio workstation

PreSonus is a prominent American brand recognized for its high-quality digital audio workstations (DAWs), audio interfaces, and studio monitors. Founded in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, in 1995, the company quickly established itself as a leader in the pro-audio industry by developing products that cater to both home recording enthusiasts and professional sound engineers. Their flagship software, Studio One, is widely regarded as one of the most intuitive and powerful DAWs available.

In late 2021, the brand underwent a significant transition when it was acquired by the Fender Musical Instruments Corporation. This acquisition allowed PreSonus to integrate its digital expertise with Fender's massive distribution network and musical heritage. While research and design often take place in the United States, the manufacturing of their hardware units is primarily outsourced to facilities in China to maintain competitive pricing for the global market.
