Sound Design and Music in Studio One

How long have I been out?
I recently discovered this (fairly new) YouTube channel by Anahit Mnatsakanyan, a musician, producer, sound designer and music theory teacher. The videos I've watched so far have concentrated on sound design in Studio One, but also music production. The channel is called Dzayna Berum.

Her style is conversational and humorous, but she keeps the videos focused on a single topic and they tend to be around the ten to twelve minute mark. Whilst in addition to music there is a lot of sound effect design, it is all material that could be useful to composers in enhancing a track.

If you are looking to learn features in Studio One, including the stock plugins and instruments, or if you are looking to improve you ability to create non-musical sound design (such as a coffee percolator), this is a great channel to check out. It is a great way to spark ideas and to learn what can be accomplished with relatively simple plugins and automation. She doesn't exclusively use stock plugins, but she uses them a lot. And for any plugin, you are likely to have an equivalent synth or processor in your own DAW.

Here are a couple of examples:

“That was so aggressive of you, noise.”

I like it.
