RE: Imo this would be wrong for MAKING dubstep

"I really don't have a professional opinion about which wrong tool for making recordings would be best."

Hahahahaha! - That's excellent!

To the OP: Creating and listening live to a "special effects" work while it is being created and performed is entirely different than recording said work and having it played back on other systems. This is like what some "avant garde" composers started doing many decades ago, such as "prepared piano" or using other traditional musical instruments to produce non-traditional sounds. I was fortunate to study and create such music under the guidance of the late Swiss composer Rainer Boesch, who himself had been a student of Olivier Messiaen and was of the Paris school of musique concrete (look it up).

So, if you want to create some dubstep or grunge music and have it sound a certain way on YOUR system, great. But, if you want to record it and have it played back on OTHER peoples' systems, then it won't sound the same, because their systems will likely be more-or-less "normal" hifi systems. So, if you want your music to sound "grungey" on other systems, you have to have a normal system for recording/monitoring/mixing in order to hear what the music will sound like on other peoples' systems. Comprende?
