Kings of both sides of dubstep atm in my opinion, how the fuck do they get their sounds so dripping wet? I can get a fairly good mid-range requake-y bass in massive quite easily, but their subs!!!! How do I get my subs to sound so dynamic and powerful?? Particularly good in the track "so"

on "so" it sounded like they might have put a subharmonic synth on their sub

yeah theres definitely some layering going on, I can't get these kind of harmonics in mono though? Can I break the mono rule above like 80hz for example?

in their remix of "coochie" it sounds like maelstrom in it, i could be wrong though, i have no idea if they use reason

sub harmonic synthesis shouldnt effect your stereo image. it just creates harmonic undertones

what exactly do you mean by sub harmonic then? I just thought it meant putting stuff like combs and chorus on your sub :P

Hmmm well I think I can EQ pretty well atm, like I know which frequencies to duck on my mids and I know what frequencies are gonna hit hardest on my sub, I think its more about their effects chain and the way its made tbh

So I've been looking into the Aphex Aurel Exciter w/ Big Bottom...
Kind of wrote off the "big bottom" but would this work good on the sub? >.>
