Today we will lean it takes to become a good Dubstep Mastering Master and proceed with an analysis of what type of hardware you'll need. Obviously a lot of hardware can cost a lot of money, but if you choose with understanding you can muster up a basic that can instantly make you a solid DJ. So without any further ado, let's continue with the tutorial.

Hardware:

In my other articles I have mentioned the need for a good midi controller and for some decent headphones. With these two elements and a laptop you could almost be "road ready" and start hitting clubs. But there are some other things that you could add to your gear that will give you that extra bit of confidence.

Every DJ should have an iPod or something similar within his or her gear. Why? Because you never know when you'll have a malfunction in a live set and having an iPod can save you. The trick is to have the iPod on its own channel and if anything goes wrong to naturally switch over to the iPod. This way you don't stop the music and you are able to fix whatever the hell murphy mucked up. In order to do this however you'll need some sort of mixer.

When listening to DJ's don't just listen to the song. The trick is to dissect it, to understand the process that the artist did when making the song. This way you begin to pick up on the minor things within the genre that separates the amateurs from the pros.

Production

When producing your music you need to test it out. There are a lot of "rules" to production that aren't really "rules" but more like guidelines. The general rule within all music however is; "If it sounds good...it is good." Thus always experiment with your production and when you find something that works, use it. Music production is about experimentation and pushing the envelope that much further. Don't over compress and try to keep the sound from not peaking on you.
