great tutorial. Really helped teach me how to construct and arrange for future pop-step songs I make. And they only used Sylenth1 which is the only synth I have.

A very informative tutorial but I would love a tutorial on some more dark/bouncy dubstep like a lot of the hench recordings label such as mensah and jakes for ableton live as this is what I really want to produce.
