Dub Tips?

Post by MT Dubstep » Fri Jul 29, 2011 9:14 pm

I've recently started listening to dub, and I'm quite liking it. So - I thought I'd hit the studio and give it a try!

Here's what I've got so far;
Soundcloud
I know it's short, but I just need that extra help so I can get it finished.

All I really want to know is, what sounds do I need to add, to make it sound a lot more full?
I have the basics. But I just need to know the finishing touches, and maybe a little help on structuring dub?

Thanks. :)

Yeah nice track mate, good idea.. Maybe add a thick sounding Mid frequency sound, a synth lead or something...cut the low frequencies though..

Hope this helps..

I like the idea's you've got in this track.
I'm not much of a dub expert, so I'm probably not the right guy to give feedback..

But, all in all, I'm liking the feel to it:)

Like i said in the other thread: I love the hihats, they sound really professional, but im really missing some "lead" you should put in some effects AND a main bassline/synth/wobble! :) but overall, really good to be your first track!

Thanks Andrix!

I did start adding effects into the track after I uploaded it, but unfortunately my computer's broke. So I can't re-upload that until I've sorted it(Hopefully tonight).
I also tried to add a mid-range bass. And as I've seen on the other thread, everyone seems to think it's a good idea. But it just sounds out of place! Although it didn't really work, I appreciate your feedback, and I may try again with the mid:)

put that klaxon into a sampler and tune it to the key of your track, should allow you to increase its volume and make the track sound much more complete
