Hi. :]

First i'd just like to say thanks, because i've been lurking for quite a while and even though I don't particularly produce dubstep, this forum has helped me learn alot about producing music in other similar areas!

Ok so I've been trying to achieve that warping speed garage for a looong time now, and have come quite close a few times, but none just seem to have that... ummmpphh... about them. Yeah.

A good example of what i'm trying to achieve can be heard here:

You hear it after the first little stuttered lyric when the warping kicks in, then it kinda loops throuhgout the rest of the song. I don't know that much about creating my own sounds, but the closest I came was probably by using a wobble with a simple square - but it just wasn't the same!

Has anyone here created any similar sounds, or can anyone give me any advice on creating it?

I've searched and searched on google, but no luck!

Thanks alot in advance.

try more than one synth??

I've tried plenty, but just can't get that warping noise... Like I say, i'm not too sure about creating my own sounds so if anyone could help me out that'd b great!

read a book on general synthesis and manipulation of sounds

synthesizers all have the same controls for the most part

keep making tunes, keep twisting knobs

etc..etc...

unison, detuning, distortion, envelope filtering.

+ glide or portamento

yo. a synth alone dont make a sound like that. its more to do with how you process the synth. the reason you can make a similar synth but not get the sound right is down to the way u process the synth and lay out ur chords. when u've programmed the synth that you want, process it. layer another syth under it. process that layer. tweak the layers/.. a sound develops

you dont have to read about doin this stuff. it just comes from messing round with ur software on pc.
