Your Journey Starts Here
Join me for a hands-on, beginner-friendly workshop on getting started with PreSonus Studio One, designed to help you unlock the basics of music production in just one hour.
In this session, I’ll guide you through the essentials of setting up your first project and recording a simple song. You’ll start by creating a MIDI drum track, then move on to recording a bassline using both MIDI and a live bass guitar.
