Prospecta and Goojah have slipped to the top of my list recently. 'Pop it Off' and 'Wickerman' are making the right noises for me. DJ Mush and Magic Mash are up there somewhere Fabian and (dare i mention) Borgore and Tomba have released some tasty numbers Goth Trad and Peverelist are two artists i'd...

memory saving tips in fruity loops: -use smart disable for all effects except reverbs and delays (this can make effects kick in with a bit of a lag on playback and cut off tails - but shouldn't affect the rendered version). you can right click on the individual effects menus in the mixer to customis...

liking the 8-bit sounding bass. some nice production and tweakage. not too sure about the higher lead synth part. sounding promising

sounding nice and jiggy. some great sounds. but... pretty busy overall - a little more space to breathe would be good.

Thanks for the feedback btw, hadn't noticed, I do love those kind of basses you were talking about been meaning to play with something like that for a while. Will check your tune tomorrow when I'm home (and not on a laptop :lol:). loving the signature tune J-One. very deep. tight production. nice. 8)

insurance is worth it if it gives you peace of mind: https://www.jltonline.co.uk/secure/quote.asp?product=Laptop&promCode= i understand where you're coming from, but if everything's backed up before you go, its not necessarily the end of the world tbh. shit happens. usually at gigs. you'll get u...

When you use layers, if you route each instrument to a seperate mixer track, you can eq and level from there? Dont scream. what A said use hi and lo pass filters. lo pass on the bass, and a high pass on the synth. depending on the sounds you're using 400hz might be a good separating point. lower if...

i love a good vintage analogue. wonky as $hit, loaded with DC bias, a bitch to use live (and big and heavy), and often difficult to sequence (if it's even possible with voltage controllers - forget USB)... but the wrongness sometimes adds rightness. I've got one of these: http://www.dancetech.com/aa...

Cheers for the feedback A-List. Imagine the bass sound won't be to everyone's taste. It's not strictly dubstep I'll admit. I wanted to avoid the formant filter sound for this one, but I do like my dirty noises and it seemed to work for me. Glad you like the rest. Nice vibe on your sig track. I'm lik...

@somatix and we bang. cheers - glad you like it - a rubber cone style overdrive did the trick nicely on the bassline :wink: still finding my way with the dubstep tho - so your feedback is much appreciated. liking what i'm hearing from your end too - will check some more out when i find a minute! the...

thanks fella. checking your tracks as we speak.

its as good a method as any - it's certainly more flexible than the traditionally boring and unimaginative two deck vinyl set up - especially with some good control devices. saying that, learning to beatmatch is good for your skillset and the skill comes in handy for other elements of production too...

not one for the purists i guess. i'm a fairly recent dubstep convert - so there's a fair amount of other influences in this one. saying that it would have turned out different if it weren't for this forum, so i though i'd share it :wink: It's a remix of a lovely ambient track by Input Junkie: http:/...

enjoyed that. always nice to see how other people tackle it. thanks for sharing.

so there's more to it than just turning the bass/treble boost down to zero? I thought keeping the EQ flat would remove most of the hi-fi colouring it would remove the colouring from the amp, but there's likely to be some on the speakers too. whatever you're using you need to rely on a certain amoun...

i've used cb radios for vocal parts. if you tune them in and out you can get some lovely ring mod effects

If you have the manual for your hifi it *might* have a frequency spectrum map within it and you can adjust your EQs to get it as natural as possible. I like that answer. i tend to forget about manuals... the aim with studio monitors is for the eq to be as flat as possible so you can hear the music ...

I'm guessing that would depend on the hi fi - amp and speakers - bass can be a bit all over the place on hifi speakers and very hard to judge for a big soundsystem. But i would say hifi speakers are better than no speakers at all. Between your headphones and your speakers you should be able to find ...

@alphacat: this n that... i've not made any dubstep yet, but like where its going. love the diversity of the scene now.
