The important thing about dubstep that a lot of people don’t realise, is that unlike drum & bass, grime etc.
there is no formula for dubstep!!
just keep it roughly 140 bpm, and make sure there’s plenty of sub bass, and you can call it ‘dubstep’.
Best advice I can give.

genre’s are all about formulas…stray too far and your not in the genre any more…
it is MUSIC that has no formula.

There IS a wobble formula:
DUBSTEP BASS FOR DUMMIES IN RENOISE:
Square/Saw/Pulse
Wet distortion, lots of hightone
Lowpass/lowshelf filter
LFO on filter between 20/30Hz to 600/800Hz
Draw the curve of your wobble in LFO
Automate LFO frequency in automation editor
EQ (use ears and good taste)
Send track to SUB, keep source
Send track to MID, mute source
In sendtrack SUB, lowpass/lowshelf filter, cutoff at around 600Hz
Stereo expander, set to mono
EQ
In sendtrack MID, highpass/highshelf filter, cutoff at around 600Hz
Chorus, first parameter 2.500, second 40%, third -35%, the rest I don’t care
EQ
Delay/Reverb according to taste, but restrain thyself
This is pretty damn global, I know… but it’s a start if you have NO clue. Also, if you have NO clue, you can either check out Jong Belegen in your Renoise demo folder, or forget dubstep and get into breakcore.

wobbly tunes are only the very tip of the dubstep iceberg…
check out this mix by DJG, brilliantly showcases the radically different, ‘deeper’ side of dubstep

I don’t know what dubstep is, but I know what wobbles are…that’s what my table does when I’m typing. If I put that into a tune…does I has dubstep?

Renoise Dubstep Army
anyway, i love dubstep, great sounds and tunes
El-B is the tits! Too bad a lot of dubstep is kind of formulaic these days, but luckily we have the deep stuff from Burial, 2562 etc to compensate for that.

NI released Massive Threat which is a soundpack for dubstep/garage/wonky. I just got the e-mail today.
Here is the link → http://www.native-instruments.com/#/en/products/producer/powered-by-kore/massive-threat/?page=1288&content=1106
From the web site:
The creator of MASSIVE has developed an instrument packed full of the edgy, dynamic sounds of contemporary electronic music, taking its cue point from the dark, brooding atmosphere and raw, aggressive digitalism of dubstep, wonky and future garage.
Building on MASSIVE’s reputation for producing sounds that range from brutal to warm and creamy, MASSIVE THREAT is an essential KORE Instrument for the free KORE 2 PLAYER or KORE 2 that can also be used directly in MASSIVE.
$59 USD and it works with the free Kore 2 Player which I have working great as a VST in Renoise.
So if you’re having trouble getting your wobble, this sound pack should cure those ills.

SoundCloud - Hear the world’s sounds
I like that style man, It’s something I can put on at home and listen to, not like most of the more “popular” styles which you really need to go to a club sporting a good soundsystem to appreciate fully. Which I also like, but it’s not something I’d listen to at length at home.
Some good tunes in here guys… keep em coming. Here’s a couple of old ones from myself.

Made a simple and rather short meditative tune with the reece linked in this thread:
ive been trying to make a specific reece sound now for a while and i havnt managed to get the sound i want.could anyone offer some advice??i realisei have to have two sawtooth osc and one detuned by around 10-25 cents…but for some reason i can never get the exact sound i want.the sound im looking for can be heard here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hhC9rE2y_MY it is the bass sound that starts at 32 seconds.the main problem im having is phasing.it just seems to phase too much when i compare it w…
Nice up Fullofkittens!

I’ve been playing about with the Delay column trying to get a beat with a real UK garage feel about it, but with modern (i.e. Dubstep) type samples.

Do you guys prefer it without (1st bar) or with (2nd) the shakers? Kinda adds a bit more swing, I think.
If anyone fancies a collab I’m thinking about crossing this with an acid vibe. Or, you know, on another track, s’cool. Check out my soundcloud page for other stuff I’ve done - better ambience in those.
