Anyone know of any Ableton tutorial pack/set at all for making dubstep? I'm trying to achieve the sound of Knife Party/Skrillex but all the separate tutorial ssuggest different things. Tried to work my way through but always lose it. Also, struggling in terms of types of notes and automation used etc.

Ideally looking for some kind of tutorial set for Ableton taking all this through, step by step, maybe based on a Knife Party or Skrillex track so you actually see and understand the process, then enabling you to tweak it to create your own sound.

Any help would be hugely appreciated!

Dude I'm doing a weekly tutorial series about Ableton Live, already 11 videos online and I take you through the entire track from start to end. It is not completely Dubstep, but a Dubstep/Electro mix. Check the tutorials at http://www.youtube.com/user/ARTFXSTUDIOS

These vids look excllent mate, thanks! Looked through a couple quickly whilst on train and looked good. Just waiting to get to my laptop/PC to work on them!

Also, looking for a more specific 'pack' / 'set' like you see around where people have samples, project files etc and take you through things step by step so you actually learn all the steps, how they flow and work together and how the final product is achieved.

Sonic academy specialize in this type of tutorial.

Started following these.

Excellent, and learnt a fair bit already! However, one a week seems painfully slow once you catch up to where you're at. Here's to hoping for 2/3 a week in the near future!

I would love to but that's not possible regarding how much time goes into those videos. And then I've also got all my other stuff like video and audio projects.

One tutorial video a week seems like quite a lot to me.

Anyway, I never really looked into how they get their sounds so can't help with that.
