I will copy my reply from previous Bjorn’s tutorial thread:
Even I am not a huge fan of 138bpm banging trance, Bjorn is excellent and straightforward tutor.
One of really few who is careful about proper prefader gain staging, for example.
I would love to see some new tutorials from him, especially now that he switched to Studio One from Cubase and we need S1 tutorials as it is amazing and fast growing DAW.
Please Sonic Academy, bring us one fresh from Bjorn and other good S1 producers as whole web is currently lacking proper S1 intermediate to advanced tutorials, especially in electronic music
Great Course! This is by far my favourite course. I learnt so much especially about arrangement which is something I struggle with. I followed along with my own track. I’ll post it soon. Cheers Bjorn
I’m blown away on how fast the tracks are arranged and Bjorn does not play back to listen if he did the arrangements correctly. I wish to reach that level someday.
It’s probably a workflow & tool set preference since both EQ are 4 bands parametric EQ, so they will sound the same in the end but the Studio EQ has got additional features like the “Inv” button that you can click on/off to really hear what you’re cutting or boosting as well as an output level meter on the right that you don’t get in the channel EQ, so it’s more convenient to use IMO, that’s the only reason I can think about here.
It would be something different to use another type of EQ like a dynamic EQ or a vintage gear modeled EQ emulation, that would affect & color the sound but any parametric EQs will give you very similar and even identical results with the same settings applied, so in the end it’s just about having more options with this one than the standard channel EQ but it doesn’t affect the sound.
