>Dubstep
Hahahahahahahahahahahahaha hahahahahahahaha hahahahahahahaha hahahahaha
Imagine selling your soul for shit music, at least play an actual instrument and pick a genre that's actually hard. Could have been a virtuoso pianist but you're just a fucking dj, holy shit, fyyyuuuuuucking gold m8

Dubstep at it's worst is much more difficult then a fucking piano hahahahahahaha, try it. At it's best it pushes the boundaries of audio engineering and sound design and creates whole new sound metas and pallettes that will trickle down through all music, especially it's sister genres such as trap or space bass, bass house, Neuro dnb etc. It's insanely innovative and it takes years and years to even gather enough skills to start joining in the conversation. most people can't fathom how difficult and how technical the process can become. Sure you can be lazy, slap down the basics, watch some sound tutorials, make a shit ass drop. And claim you made riddim. But stop it. You made garbage. (Hypothetical) it's my life goal to innovate in dubstep and push the scene toward because the autistic beauty in dnb dubstep, brostep, riddim, neurofunk, and technical bass music in general and the ignorant dubstep raves are extremely fun , goofy , and not to be taken too seriously. Plus rave bitches love dubstep.

I make dubstep with my Octatrack, Piano, and a small Tascam recorder. 48k followers on spotify, probably make an extra $30-32k a year on average from it.

but by all means, click away on ableton. enjoy finding out you have to sell your soul like OP

>pic related. sold a non-dubstep song to related artist for enough to buy a new Toyota Tacoma cash.

That's amazing desu, got any links to your dubstep I'm curious. It you don't want to blow up your spot then how do u do the sound design without a dedicated synth or does the octatrack have that kind of capability?

Open-source sampling can lead to any sound you want to make. Even basic samplers like the Digitakt can turn a handclap into a synth waveform with enough time. Think LFOs, time-stretching, pitching. Sound waves are just that. And altering them is really easy with instruments.

Piano with midi-out can play different synth modules or even cool ipad synths like Synth One. Music is really accessible, its just a matter of how creative you are.

If you're interested in going dawless look at: MPC ONE, Octatrack, Digitakt, and then buy a Tascam Model 12 mixer. You can release an entire album fully mastered on that with enough time spent learning it.

I hope you'd understand why I wouldn't want to identify myself on 4chan, but appreciate your interest.
