ubuntustudio-live is waiting to be built. It's a package that will
replace ubuntustudio-live-settings. A new addition is a plugin that
creates a new page in ubiquity, allowing you to select which packages
you want to install.
I had some trouble testing it, but anyone who wants to try do (after
adding this ppa):

$ sudo apt-get install ubiquity ubuntustudio-default-settings
ubuntustudio-live
$ sudo apt-get purge ubuntustudio-live-settings
$ ubiquity

That should start ubiquity in Ubuntu Studio "mode". The extra page is
before partitioning, so one probably wants to exit at that point.
