Most times that's the best way to go about it.

also, to make up for my dickishness, let me try to give you some advice:
~~~SICK NASTY WOBBLES BRO~~~
1. Dubstep is an electronic genre, with the vast majority of tunes produced / programmed on a computer using a DAW (digital audio workspace) such as Reason, Logic, Ableton Live, Motu Digital Performer, Cubase, Reaper, etc
Keep this in mind when trying to recreate it in a chiptune environment / sonic field, remember that it is not mainly (though it can be occasionally done properly) produced using hardware effects boxes and guitar pedals. SHIT IS DIGITAL MAAAAN

2. The main sound of the wubwubwubwubwubwubwubWOMPWOMP wobbly tasty bits is a bass trick. It is accomplished by running a low frequency synth (if you're using lsdj, lets say a G3 sinewave in the wav channel) through a lowpass filter. Next, said filter's cutoff (the jawn that determines what frequencies pass through, and what don't) is MODULATED by an lfo (which is, most often, a really low sinewave, though you may use a saw if you like, a square won't do too much sadly). By ATTACHING THE LFO TO THE CUTOFF FILTER, the frequency spectrum of the synth rises and falls in a sinewave pattern, giving you your WUBWUBWUBWUB.

3. BUT I DONT HAVE ANY LFOS TO PLAY WITH ON MY LSDJ / NANOLOOPS?!?! yes. now here's the fun part. you have to emulate the effect described above, to the best of your synthlicious ability, within the limitations of your chosen weapon. I recommend using the wav channel and toying with the volume envelope / alternating rising and falling volume instruments / pitching pitching pitching. Also, if you are looking for that YOI YOI YOI YOI BREE BREEEEE shit, don't CLIP a bitch, WRAP that motherfucker.

fuck i don't know why i wrote all that ish, but there ya go. Experimentation is your best friend.
-go forth and do epic shit

edit, damn my bad, i didn't realize you were done here, well, hope it helped nonetheless

To answer your question, I can't think of anything within LSDJ. You could run in live mode, and have all of your chains copied twice, so one would be the original, and the second set would be something you could manipulate on stage, and then trigger to start on at the beginning of the next phrase, so you'd be able to prepare things in real time. Or even have edited chains already done before hand, so you can just trigger them and change it up as you see fit.

Or as mentioned check out Ableton Live, but you said within LSDJ



Unless I'm misinterpreting what you're trying to say,
It's shit like this that upsets me about the cm.org

Why not foster a community instead of telling anyone we don't like to run along to 8bc. Maybe instead of telling people to get out when they ask a question we should be less of an asshole. If I wanted to deal with assholes and trolls I'd be on 8bc, and I'd read 8bc threads.

But I don't want to. And I don't go to 8bc because of it.

My thoughts exactly.

well you know, if you're unhappy with Chipmusic, you can always goto http://8bc.org/
:3 :3 :3
just kidding, but seriously, i try my best not to be an asshole, sorry if it came off that way. Op, it would greatly help if you reword your question / understand a bit about how remixes are made.

well, personally, I think op's question could have 1. Been worded a lot better or 2. solved with a bit of research
that's all

Hi there,

is there any chance to buy tickets before the Festival. We are coming from germany especially for the show and it would be a disaster if it is sold out.

Greetings
Wolfgang

wow, it's awesome you're coming all the way from Germany for Blip, much love

Dubstep =/= Dub
also, there is no "instant remix effect"

or maybe there is, these guys should be able to help you with this

yeah, to be honest, i was really expecting this one to be a mix of electro house and dubstep. I'm glad it wasn't though, that shit is way too trendy right now. Not to knock on the guys who do it well, i've just been hearing way too much of that stuff lately.

But fuck this is some of the best lsdj 4tothafloor i've heard in a loooong time
