Hello everyone,

I'm sure that you've all read the "I'm new to dubstep, and want to learn how to produce...blah, blah, blah" introductions a bazillion times. Well guess what, I am new to dubstep and I do want to learn to produce. BOOM! A bazillion and one times.
Do I think I'll make a career out of it, probably not, but do I find it interesting and complex and inspiring, hell yes I do.

I have been reading some of the threads and posts on dubstepforum.com and I don't think I have come across a single post that was negative or that ripped into someone else looking for help/advice. Everyone seems really willing to go out of their way to help each other out, and that is straight up awesome! So I am happy to become a part of this community and I hope that I can contribute and take away from it in the same vein.

Anyhow, in short: I'm a 30 year-old dude from the east bay area (CA), I've been fiddling with MAGIX Music Maker MX and while it is super primitive in what I would like to do, it is a good start for someone like me. I did take a Pro Tools class back in my freshman year of college, but I'll be damned if I can remember how to do much of anything. I don't really have any theory background, but have about 13 years exp. playing the drums (casually - both in and out of punk and metal bands) so I know how to come up with a beat or two. ;-)
I am also trying to find a cheap-o keyboard through Freecycle http://www.freecycle.org that I can jam on and am looking into taking some summer classes or try and teach myself how to play as I feel that it will greatly help me with the composition of tracks, etc. But if anyone else has any sage-like advice they can provide me with, I'll gladly take it!

Whats up everyone! I'm nick from NC I'm married with a baby boy (who loves dubstep in the car, start em young right!) I'm a Christian and a firefighter with Pinecroft Sedgefield FD. I've been into dubstep about 3 months but was never into rap, hip-hop, electronica or whatever. I have a background in hardcore as a guitarist and also as a guitarist and vocalist in hxc and post rock, shoegaze, and folk/ worship. Did drums too. So with my background I'm a huge skrillex fan (hate me, whatevz). I operate a small home studio (www.facebook.com/nickhawksproductions) and yes I try dubstep on PROTOOLS 8 baby!!!!! Looking forward to a lot of knowledge I've seen here!
G-d bless
Nick :h:

hey guys-

glad to be here

I'll start with a question




yes we can all make a strait sub from a sine wave, but what about thickening up some dynamic midrange bass with an "underpinned" sine wave, so that you get the boom that moves with your midrange stuff.

I've tried side chaining my sine-sub to my midrange bass via a gate or a compressor with not great results, too much clicking, etc. Maybe i should just try and run another oscillator off my synth, playing a dropped sine?


(see link for example off the "dynamic midrange basses" i like to work with)

Couldn't you just copy the notes the midrange is playing into the sub in your sequencer? I really don't see how this is a problem...

Yo everybody,

im Florian, 24 years old and living in Hamburg since 24 years. Always been loving music since i'm 5 years old - started with the Beatles and german Punk Bands,
landet over Hip Hop, Grime and Deephouse at Bass Music. I'm favouriting the deep english style, Youngsta does it well, also Sukh Knight, Phaeleh, Stuff like DJ Madd, ect.

Think i didn't have to tell that i'm not liking brostep shit or any pop-dubstep mashups or whatever. Been grewing up with WobWob Shit (http://www.wobwob.net/) so there's no
danger not to get enough good bass music in Hamburg.

Hope i can share some of my freakin' brain in here :-)

If you like listen to my mix to get to know how it works, feel free to criticize.

Yo people

I'm Olaf, 22 years and hooked on dark underground music since 2004~2005 or so.. Loving the real (old-school) sound of garage, dubstep and the future movements representing the true sound. I mostly listen to dark minimal dubstep and other bass weight and freetekno. Been having an account for quite some time, and finally decided to actually post stuff here. I've been producing for about 2 years, on and off, ready to jump back in. Hope I'm able to share proper music with you guys! Check out my soundcloud if you feel like it.

Cheers,

Korrupt

Hi everyone :) I've been looking around dubstep forums as i'm doing my university dissertation on it as a genre. If yo ucould fill out my questionnaire as fans that'd be much appreciated. http://freeonlinesurveys.com/s.asp?sid= ... a163x40361

Also, what do you think about the development of dubstep as a genre?
