Re: EQ questions (Cutting highs/Boosting)

Have you ever tested your range of hearing? I generated some sines in audacity one time and I think around 17.5kHz was the highest I could hear. So then somewhere around there would be a good place to lowpass everything. I usually only hear hi hats occupying that range. Do any of you guys use graph...

Skream track recommendations?

I like a few of Skream's tracks, like Filth and Oskilatah, but I'm trying to give him a proper chance right now. I started listening to brostep about a year ago and have since been slowly getting into deeper dubstep. So any track recommendations?

Re: How do you EQ dubstep?

when you use a parametric EQ, the "Q" controls how large the range is of frequencies to be boosted. a narrow Q will look like a spike, a wide Q will look like a round lump.

You can see it throughout the video, and at 0:35 if you don't want to watch the whole thing.

Re: System - Lights (Exact Remix)

i like the drop a ton. i think it could come a few bars earlier though, i don't think the extended buildup is that necessary. i also think the drop in the middle of the song could be a bit shorter. i think it would sound better if when the second drop comes in, the bass wasn't faded in. it would be ...

Re: Dafuq - Lighter

i really like the hard synths starting at about 0:30. however, i agree that they should come in with the drop. i also think that they should have some midrange bass or sub backing them up. i also don't like the midrange wobble.

distance gives a view contrary to what's mainly being given here. he thinks subs should be audible on systems without subwoofers, so he brings out some harmonics. i'd say i disagree with his view, but i think it should get some attention.

Re: Recommend a subwoofer!

you could try getting headphones which produce down below 20hz. would be a cheaper way of seeing how your deep bass sounds.

Re: System - Lights (vSQUARED Remix)

I like it allot. The vocals are a bit back in the mix, more than usual with dubstep vocals, but I like it that way. It puts an emphasis on the instrumental portion.

How to remix?

Hey, did a few searches on this; couldn't find anything. How does one go about remixing a song? How do you separate the instruments out from each other so that you can work with them individually?

Re: Heavyweight Synths

I haven't read through all 9 pages of this thread, but I plan to start making electronic music soon (been playing guitar for 5 years) and I'm going to buy massive and the most basic ableton package. I assume that I'll need to buy another package than massive to get a good range of synths? or would m...
