Check the bible and if there is nothing in there about wobble bass then on the Malstrom use the wobble button and the rate button.

in.

Welcome to DSF :) Be warned of flying Alpacas! ;)

Using the default patch (sinewave/no filters), route the audio through the shaper/Filter A, then through a reverb with medium decay and 15% dry/wet (mostly dry).

Back on the Malstrom, turn on the shaper and set the amount to round 45%. On Modulator B, turn down the 'Filter' knob so that Mod B is controlling the filter cutoff of Filter A. You should have a nice wobble. Adjust the filter, shaper amount and reverb to taste.

I feel like an internet bully:(

Futures Untold has told you how to do it, goodluck:)

I suggest you have a good read of the sticky threads on this forum for production tips of common questions to get started.

Actually, I just tried those settings in my first post and they sound shit.

You need a really low shaper amount, maybe 5 or 10. Adjust filter and verb to taste etc..

Honestly were are all these alpacas coming from! :o

1. Create combinator
2. Insert Line mixer 6:2
3. Insert Malstrom Synthesizer
4. For mod B turn the filter to the right to 52 and in oscillator A turn octave to 2
5. Activate shaper and turn amt to the right 115
6. In filter A panel turn frequency to the left to 35
7. Press show programmer and click the malstrom in the device list
8. On the right side for source rotary 1 choose the target mod b rate
9. Activate sync on mod b
10. Move rotary 1 until you have acquired the desired wobble rate

This is a fairly basic guideline, experiment and you will get better results.

Cheers. :D

Did you search this forum and the web? At all? There's tons of tutorials, see one, you seen em all. Also wobble is definately not vital to dubstep.

oh dear thats an unfortunate question to ask, it's a very popular one that's been well answered. search --> wobble. luckily futures untold is very helpful, most of the other people will post alpaca pictures if you ask something.... erm.. they dont want to answer anymore.

Anyway at least you didn't ask how to make Caspa or rusko bass. Oh and BTW if they tell you there's a button, they're lying (caspa is a knob control).
