I like to produce dub step. My main technique is to play a basic dub step beat and make and 8 or 16 bar loop for the main drop. I'll usually use between4-6 different synth instances for the drop. I do use the call and response approach. But then I'll bounce that down to audio and once I do that it on!!!! That's when I can really chop it up and automate different effects, pitch etc. then bounce that down to a single audio wav. Basically as some one here already said. Audio manipulation. I just finished this track. I dig it. I think it has that feel to it. L
