My new YouTube playlist: "Music production" has a mix of super insightful videos, and a few sort of interesting,music-related videos. I'm adding videos there as I go.
Good channels:

Filter vs. equaliser:

Note: we can use a filter to help extract a particular part of a track for sampling, e.g., a low-pass filter, removing most of the vocals, to extract the bass line from a song that has just voice + bass.
You can apply a LFO (low frequency oscillator) to other effects. for example:
- LFO applied to pitch = vibrato
- LFO applied to volume = tremolo
- LFO applied to the cut-off frequency for a low-pass filter = a "wobble" bass sound
