DUB

Back again with dub. I am a huge dubstep fan and am inspired by Skrillex. All of his beats, sounds, etc. are just fantastic, I haven't even come close to what he does but its a start. The sounds are aplenty with the 3xOsc square wave shape from the dubstep sounding wubs. The drums include HIP_Hat_4 for the hi hat and the  HIP_Snare_7 and the HIP_Kick_5 are layered to sound with the basic kick and default snare. There is reeverb on the snare and the setting was put into channel 2 in the mixer. The drum pattern is a steady beat for dubstep to lye upon it. its a simple x-----x---x-X-x- (tempo 120, snare: X, kick: x); The hi hat varies. The dubstep portion is a steady incline of notes followed by something that reminded me tenfold of a Skrillex type part. After is a increased pace of kick to lead up to a couple arpeggiated notes. The inclination and arpeggiation consists of the Fruity Blood Overdrive and other patterns have a filter cutoff and a speed LFO.

Sympathy For You

This is the song I made myself with the demo at my house. It took so long on the account that its three minutes and I had no save feature. There can definitely be changes made, such as the annoying guitar whine during the 'drum part.' Otherwise I'm really pleased with how this came out. This song was made out of a hardcore riff and drum part. None of this was created with a riff machine or chopper. All the sounds came from FL Slayer and the real drum kit.
