140 standard. Unless I am not making dubstep then it is whatever feels right at the time.

I also just do 140

It's the standard and I don't really feel like I need to change that.

Nothing wrong with using different BPMs and I do so frequently when I work on other genres.

i dont understand why people are using 140bpm when the beats are slow? does it just allow more room for faster note arpeggios n shit like that?

me aswell, there about 5 people in this thread that think this so it is now a FACT.

i make tunes no faster then 160 no slower then 70. i never set out to make dubstep and most my stuff aint dubstep tempo or sounding, but when people ask me what i make i say "dubstep" then when they here it they say "whats that shit?" :roll:

If you listen to older dubstep you won't find many of them to be 140. This shit is redic.

I went to a little night at corsica studios the other month and heard some fucking sick dubstep from like 120-160, was nice to hear stuff at 160 that still sounded very dubstep and not very dnb. TOP BUMMIN
