Cheap Dubstep

I am very cheap. VERY cheap. I am so cheap that I use the *completely legal, fully-paid for, non-pirated* edition of FLstudio 5 on the school computer, as I will not spring for logic on my mac. So I was wondering about a few things I could do to make dubstep easier and less painful to produce, as the school computers suck and I have to do work in the computer class.


EDIT:
Also, I still haven't figured out how to bring up any of the things like fruity vocoder or fruity reeverb (any advice?)

There are some freeware/shareware/open-source trackers and sequencers you could try out. I can't vouch for the quality of them, but I'm sure some are worth a shout.

Unless you are shitting out dubstep pineapples, I'm not quite sure what you mean by this.


If you mean producing quicker, well the only way that will happen is through practice really. And the "production bible" thread in this forum is worth a read too.

Have a word with yourself.
Producing Dubstep should be a joy, if it isn't then you're barking up the wrong fucking tree.

I have no need to make the switch to renoise. Buzz is a good tracker.

trackers smell like dirty fingers.

Go with Reaper.
