So I'm new to dubstep and all, well not new but really sh!t.
I've made my first good sounding dubstep song, the synth and all sounds pretty good to me, but then with the bass sounds it sounds boring and terribly layered.
I dont know how to EQ or any of that technical sh!t so when you tell me to do stuff be specific, lol.
Any good tutorials or ideas for bass sounds, because mine sound really boring.
And for the layering, it sounds like a bunch of bass sounds just squashed into each other, its terrible.
Help please.
Btw I use Ableton Live.

how does calyx not know how to layer basslines? oh wait...

Would of been good if it was calyx and they were just making their sounds straight out of massive,how jealous would we all be.

I'm guessing theres a dubstep producer named Calyx....

Other then the name Calix.....

search function and the big sticky up top on making dubstep, been covered many a time on here
you're going to want to start with equing and gain staging to start

this is now a calyx appreciation thread

Im not great myself but I could probably take a look at your Ableton Live set for you and give a few pointers. I will send you a PM.
