New to dubstep...

Post by JLC » Tue Aug 10, 2010 8:57 pm

Hey guys,

I've recently gotten into dubstep a lot and I really want to learn how to make it. I have a few questions. I make hip hop instrumentals on FL Studio 9 but that program probably isn't good for dubstep, correct? If so, what programs do you recommend for a beginner? Also, can I just use a computer or do I need an actual setup like mixers, keyboards, amps ect...?

Thanks,
James

Hah me too! You know what really kills me? "Supposably" instead of supposedly. My fuck... hear it all the time from my step mom and want to kill her for it. I always try to say it right shortly afterwards but she never gets the hint haha

Right and everyone knows there's no other software that can come close to Reaper's penis enlarging algorithms. But for the most part, yes most software is the same, it's the skills that you bring to the table that count.

I know people that make some pretty intense shit with FL, it's not what you use it's how you use it.

Hahah yeah. I noticed that pretty early. I think before I even got here, I had a looming sense of some great evil.

Nah but in all seriousness. I don't mind being e-slapped around a bit. I'm a dick too, and a lot of the people here seem to know enough to justify the elitism.
So fuck it. I mostly just lurk anyway :p
