I'm a dummy, so please walk me through this. Let's say a monster with multi-attack is attacking me, if I miss with studied response on their first attack and get my reaction back, can I then use that regained reaction on their second attack against me? Or separately, let's say I get hit by Monster A, use my response and miss, then Monster B attacks me. Can I use the response as well? Makes sense not being able to use it during the first attack or else you would keep swining till ya hit but doing it on the second attack makes sense.

What game feature gives you back a Reaction before the start of your next turn?
Without such ability, a Monster Hunter can't be ''striking back as a Reaction when an enemy targets them with an attack.'' more than once during Multiattack.
Level 2: Studied Response
Studied Response is another important feature for Monster Hunters. This allows them to turn an enemy’s aggression into opportunity—striking back as a Reaction when an enemy targets them with an attack.
Paired with Weapon Masteries like Vex or damage-enhancing abilities like the Trapper's Elemental Ammunition, this can produce hefty damage each round, even before their Extra Attack enters the picture at level 11.
While researching AI gave me a different Monster Hunter not sure from which source, but that effectively say ''if your reaction attack misses, you can use it again against another creature's attack, potentially multiple times in one round if there are multiple attacks to trigger it.''
In such case it could be used during Multiattack.
"Studied Response" is a specific ability in the Monster Hunter homebrew class for Dungeons & Dragons where . This feature essentially grants a form of "extra attack" at level two, allowing for more frequent attacks per round and making it a cornerstone of the class. It can also be used against spells, and missing the attack allows you to try again against another attack.
How Studied Response works
Trigger: When a creature you can see within 60 feet targets you or another creature with a melee or ranged attack.
Action: You use your reaction to make one attack with a weapon or an unarmed strike against that creature.
Benefit: It can be used to get an extra attack before an enemy's attack lands, or on a spell being cast.
Missed Attack: If your reaction attack misses, you can use it again against another creature's attack, potentially multiple times in one round if there are multiple attacks to trigger it.
You have learned the most effective way to slay a monster is to strike its most vulnerable area at the right moment. Too early, and your attack glances away. Too late, and the monster may eviscerate you.
When a creature you can see within 60 feet of you targets you or another creature with a melee or ranged attack, you can take a Reaction before the attack roll to make one attack with a weapon or an Unarmed Strike against that creature.
If the attack misses, you regain the use of your Reaction.
It's very unclear to me whether "if the attack misses" refers to the triggering attack or the attack you make in response to it. But it seems pretty clear that whichever one it is, if it misses, you get the Reaction back and can do it again the next time it triggers, potentially even on the same turn.

Thank you for the reference like i said in that case yes it can be used during Multiattack if your attack ever miss.
