You will need a DAW: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_audio_workstation
I prefer FL Studio (Producer Edition) and Ableton Live:
http://www.brothersoft.com/download-fl-studio-66439.html
http://www.ableton.com/download
If you want to play live you'll want to get a capable laptop, and a good external audio card (most laptops don't have very good soundcards).
You may also want some type of controller for playing live, a MIDI controller keyboard or something like Native Instruments Maschine or Ableton's Launchpad.
You can also use those in your studio when creating/recording your music.
In case you end up getting FL Studio, you can get 10% discount on your first order from image-line with this promo link for new customers: https://support.image-line.com/jshop/shop.php?offer=Default&promo=BACJBAA468
Just make sure you get the right version. The demo is basically the same as the Producer Edition, except for some of the generators like Sytrus and Directwave that are only available in the Signature Bundle. You can compare the editions here: http://flstudio.image-line.com/documents/editions.html
Good luck!

John asks…
What equipment do I need to make dubstep music live and in the studio?
Im really into dubstep and want to start creating it. I have absolutely no clue on what hardware or software to buy. Will someone please help me.
landscapeliving answers:
On the software side you could check something like Acid Pro, FL Studio or Ableton Live.
There are many options actually, here you can find some more: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_audio_workstation
I prefer FL Studio Producer Edition myself. In case you end up getting that you can get 10% discount on your first order from image-line with this promo link for new customers: https://support.image-line.com/jshop/shop.php?offer=Default&promo=BACJBAA468
Also remember that picking the right software is mostly about the workflow, not about the sounds that come with it. You can get more (free) samples and VST instruments for them to expand the range of sounds for doing dubstep or any other kind of music really.

Maria asks…
How much does dubstep equipment cost?
I have no idea what dubstep requires, but I want to make it.
Could someone give me the breakdown?
How much a keyboard costs, how much the programs cost, how much the turntables cost (I don't even know if turntables are used for studio).
I'm not looking to perform live, I would just like to make dubstep songs in studio.

Dude, all you need is a computer program if you just want to produce Dubstep.
Fruityloops is one of the easiest music production programs and people like Rusko use it to make Dubstep, start with that. Download it for free through a torrent, dont bother paying. I recommend you watch my brothers tutorials on Youtube, they are very good.

If you want to get more technical, download a program called Reason, its like the industry standard for music production but is quite complicated to use. You'll need to follow a tutorial or guide.
If you just want to MIX dubstep music (that other people have made) get a program called Virtual DJ, i got it free on a torrent. Also, go to pirate bay and type DUBSTEP and arrange by most seeders, there are a few good torrents that are like 2gb each with LOADS od dubstep tunes that are really good.
You only need record decks if you want to mix vinyl records....
Check out Ruskos dubstep tutorial too, its good....

Sandra asks…
What equipment do I need to produce Dubstep?
I'm interested in making Dubstep music at home. I won't be doing any live shows for the time being, but I would definitely be interested in the future though. What equipment would be essential in making Dubstep music? Like would I need a synth? What computer programs would I need? I have a Mac by the way. Thank you
