[help] Gabber? what do i need to know before i start?

Square kicks, distorted sugary synths

I'd guess that thirds would be used a lot, because of the connection with hardstyle. Also, never use sampled kicks, always make your own. Headhunterz (I know he's hardstyle but the same principal applies) sometimes spends weeks on his kicks, so don't think you can make a good synth kick in a few hours.

That's about all I know, sorry :/

There's a recent gabber thread, you've probably seen it but I figured I'd link it anyway

I don't know about structure, I would say just do whatever sounds good to you but I can understand if that's not very helpful

I refer to my statement about Tridirt. That and camelcrusher are the only two (free) distortion plugins you will ever need. (Except for like a bitcrusher or something)
