Re: Best and worst dubstep tune of all time, and explain why

i actually always say that.. even when sean paul became a phenomenon i was like... nothing against the dude.. his fanbase tho...

same with skrillex... altho i admit he sounds a little snarky and id prolly steal his gf for 30 min in a club or sumthin.. just for the sake of it...

Re: gain structure and mixing aka THE MONEYSHOT THREAD

i either do it all wrong or it's just one of those things i get, mixing is (mostly) easy for me anybody else ever felt like this? tough luv but from a technical standpoint ur tracks have severe dynamics issues... altho aesthetically that might be just what you're after tough luv.. no harsh feelings...

Re: gain structure and mixing aka THE MONEYSHOT THREAD

My bad mixing skills has really begun to piss me off lately.. I even cry myself to sleep trying to figure out this riddle. I was wondering if anyone could give some good tips on how I can practice my mixing, as I don't want to make a WHOLE tune and then start mixing. Don't anyone have some fancy ti...

Re: Stereo Pan Law

huge thread on gearslutz about that i remember...
some say certain pan laws are more "musical"... like the +3 one... if i remember

Re: Rap, Hip Hop, and some Dubstep drum samples (43MB, 120+)

it would be extremely hard to prove i didnt record a sound that is similar to the original.. u people are shoving clouds...

in the here and now i hugely doubt anyone will notice i took one sound out of a tune (which i never do anyways)... people are big on drum machine samples anyways haha
