this is like mario party or something
there's a bunch of beastie boys acapellas that were released under CC licenses yeaaars ago. i would be pretty mad if i got banned for using those.
e-piano sample (fl keys can do that), delay and automated low pass filter with a good amount of resonance
or you can use a delay plugin with built in filtering like ohmboyz or fabfilter timeless 2 on the epiano
guys if you play the song backwards it says HAIL SATAN!!!

That's good business sense, not corruption.

dude, microsoft songsmith is art
So many. You could do it with any of the free ones that come with FL but I'd go with SimSynth Live because it's the most warm sounding of the freebies (imo).
You can use any polyphonic synth with 2 or more sine wave oscillators and a pitch envelope.

As far back as I can remember I've always listened to music as a whole bunch of separate entities swirling around each other.
As far back as I can remember I always wanted to be a gangster.

techno should be more repetitive and predictable!
put the sound a frame or two behind where it is now?
Good thing you're only beating them with a 57, I've gone toe to toe with many fell beasts wielding a 58.

I know we're talking about the context of voice acting, but come on... Professional recording engineers do not use Audacity for "95% of their recording needs".
There are lots of ways to do a DJ-friendly tempo change, but if you're being courteous you always need to switch back to the tempo you started at well before going to the outro.
With games I lean towards a kinda bouncy style

(not "happy" but idk, I thought I'd include it)
I had a bunch of other relevant tracks up at one point and then took them down somewhere along the line. In any case, I'd be happy to create new, original works for you! :)
OKAY WAIT here's the thing about wobble-basses: It really helps for the wobble and the bass to be separate synths mixed in separate channels and then grouped together later if need be.
Reverb isn't a bad idea sometimes but it needs to have a pretty short decay and have a pretty high lowcut frequency, avoid reverberated bass at all costs. Don't mix the reverb into mono, either.
So many things to doooooo
I've made like a couple of dubstep songs ever and almost every time I've just use a couple of layered instances of WASP XT, using the piano roll slides to adjust the filters instead of a pre-determined LFO.
The most versatile and fun technique I devised I ended up using in this track here
- I started by making a regular dance bassline with WASP XT using bit of resonance and a bit of FM and a progression roughly based on What Is Love.
- I then ran it through a VST called "Effectrix" in order to glitch the rhythm up with a bit of shuffling and occasional reversal, but you can use Gross Beat or the free dBlue Glitch VST to achieve the same thing.
- At this point I loaded the bassline, timestretched it to fit 70bpm and made three duplicates of the channel at faster/slower speeds and one at a higher octave. Cut it up to have different rhythmic properties in each bar
Here's the original bassline with Effectrix processing, for reference.

200? You're pushing it into breakcore territory there ;)

You really should get used to not having it there BUT if you absolutely desperately need it then go to Options > General Settings Right down near the very bottom of the options there's a check box for "Enable legacy pattern blocks".
When you do this you'll get a dialog box telling you exactly what I'm telling you now, that they're removing this option completely in the near future so you might as well just reconfigure your workflow.
With house/electro I gravitate towards the bottom end of the 120's, if I'm being chill I can go as low as 116 and if I'm being aggressive then I'll smash it out at 126.
