Ok. I am a noob to dubstep.
Im interested in producing some in fl6 from scratch, so what do i need to know about building it from the ground up?

um ok, thanks for the help guys
honestly i know how to use fl6, and i know how to layer vst synths.
as well as make beats.
i think i should have been more specific.

There isn't a formula... what is most important is that you make GOOD tunes, not that they be dubstep necessarily. I can't remember who said it, but get good at the program you are using first, and then make tunes second.
If you know how to use it, then making dubstep is pretty much as easy as just making it. Please keep it closer to 140, though... the sleepy stuff is getting a bit boring anymore, most times.

ok the last post was helpful.
140 bpm does sound right.

I think i should just buy a quasmadi 309 and pay off the rest of my radias and stick to gabber/breakcore.
And keep the dub as a side project. or just buy a load of dub rekkids and get used to it, and prepare for a long adventure

Ill give the dub some time to grow on me. Im not totally sold on it.
and ive been into the dub for 4 months.
Gabber breakcore is more natural to me. 2 years

What I mean by that, is that there is no special way to make dubstep... it is what it is. You use the same methods as you would for any other genre, only you modify the way things sound a little differently...
It's not like there is a formula, is what I mean.
