Studio 1[5] is the third and final studio album by the British girl group All Saints. It was released following a five-year hiatus during which the bandmembers had pursued solo careers.

The first single released from the album was "Rock Steady" which was released on 6 November 2006 and peaked at #3 on the UK Singles Chart. The album, however, was not as successful. It debuted at #40 on the UK Albums Chart, unlike their first two albums which peaked at #2 and #1 respectively. Although the album sold poorly, it was certified Gold[6] by the BPI based on 100,000 copies shipped to stores, who clearly anticipated the album would fare better than it did. All Saints were subsequently released from their contract with Parlophone.

A second single, "Chick Fit", was to be released in February, however it was eventually decided that the release would be download-only. The single failed to chart inside the UK Singles Chart.
