When my snare is lacking in presence in the track (but its hitting -8dbfs as a reference for a hard hitting snare) I use Transient Master from NI to increase the attack of the transient of the snare. There is probably some free sound shaper plug ins out there. This brings the snare to the front of t...

Is there a source that lists what oscillator waveforms, including the basic filter and effects routing, are used for certain wobble sounds? I enjoy learning how to make the sound from basic steps and than just messing with the parameters. This helps me understand how the sound is formed and how I ne...

The better the sound card the more sound processing you can complete at the same time. This also means better sound quality before and when rendering to a file. When you have a dedicated soundcard (external or internal) you will be able to mix down properly. I use a Steinberg CI-2. The sound process...

Haven't checked in in a bit, CrewCutz - Suck Out - Good track so far. Kick should be more prominent in the mix though. It will sound better on the drops. mthrfnk - The End - Energetic track and first drop. I think the second build up kills the momentum a little bit? Maybe extend the synth that comes...

thanks for feedback everyone @centurysam maybe i am plain stupid but i dont get the tip one hundret percent, do you mean like a breathing in and out kindy vibe like synth coming in slowly and breathing out with release? The wobble synth in your track plays from drop to finish. There is never any br...

weedcali - Damn, I like where this is going. Love the atmosphere. At 1:20 you had me hooked. All the sounds are dope. I would work on the kick and make it punchier for the main parts of the song. I think the drops will stand out a bit more and it will give the song a heavier feel. :D bryan42690 - Th...

No, I mean the whole portion that you listened to is the meat and bones of the song, so no build up or ending or rest. But thank you will try to keep some things simplistic. Around 0:25 it gets a lil messy. If you are just starting off there is nothing wrong with just sticking to a regular kick - s...

Hey I'm fairly new at this, any feedback is welcomed :) This would be I guess the "drop" portion. http://soundcloud.com/derrek68/resample2 As in the beginning is the drop? Not much of a drop of there is nothing leading up to it. The middle looses rhythm. Try not too go to crazy with the d...

My roommate spins. I'm on the production front more so, but I can defn mix in some dirt so we did a lil bnf with house and dub last night. If you're in TO we should collab and bounce work off each other. I like your wip. Hard shit.

Heres 6 feedbacks ;) @Notbellm - great piano solo , but the wobble is to weak for my taste :( @eldoogle - need to work on the buildup :) @T0X1K - for me the track didnt went anywere. @nnny - great track but not to much dubstep :D @MRP5 - fu*king great , just Epic track :ukking: @sqwuabblesmynig - i...

@ alexvont12 - Cool track. You could turn the kick down or put a limiter on it. Maybe try to separate it from the synth, cause whenever the synth goes up in volume I heard some slight crackling. I like the mixdown on the hats. I have a concern with how effective the drops are. The kick and the hat c...

s3f - that is sounding really mean so far. Good wobs. Slow down the panning rate imo, or w.e is making it move back n forth. Otherwise, Just gotta freshen up the kick and snare. resik21 - thats a good first tune dude. With a little composition work you got more than enough to lay out a sick chill du...

Good tips in here. Maybe add this to the bible?

I followed the High Ranking tutorial. Like what I'm hearing. Ill put it up later in the WIPs. Gonna try the more advanced stuff later.

We Bang - Wake the fuck up - Sick track so far. I really wanna hear the melody in the intro without the drums for a bit at the beginning, but thats a personal choice. Drop is wicked. Voice synth is bumpin on the breaks. Mechablossom - Ellie Goulding Lights Remix - This will be big! The wobs are dir...

Thanks for the replies guys. Me thinks I was trying to do too much with that track. I still need to learn a proper way to separate the sound stage from the drums. I adjusted my sub bass as well. Check it.

projekt - electricity - Feelin the chill. This is the kinda stuff I love to listen to on DI with a cup of coffee in one hand and a splif in the other. Snares entrance is killer. Double check for clipping on the sub or work in a small descending pitch ramp to ease in the sub with the kick. Cool. mmms...

lmao... why even bother in this thread? I'll just post my track up in the finished tracks section next month. Thats where the big boys go to play. Hopefully.

For people who post up their shit without commenting on others people work first. FOLLOW THE RULES!!!! You guys post up your "WIPs", show some respect for the people above you. If you dont have time to comment on others work DONT POST YOUR SHIT!!! I am new to this forum and I did take my t...

btw - how would I go about beefing up my drums? thanks Layering samples - I usually use 3 samples for my snare and 2 for my kick. Than mess around with the gain and volume levels. Remember smallest adjustments make the biggest difference. If you want to quickly beef up your drums just layer another...

So after having a few laughs at this topic, I decided to go back and cut up one of my older samples to throw it into a quick bass drop. http://soundcloud.com/nextpandora/05-next-remix-wip-bass-drop Just like everyone said, there is no proper way to do a 'bass drop'. There is a very simple formula fo...
