I learned in 13 minutes what Ive been hoping to learn the past 13 years....synths & oscs makes SO MUCH MORE sense now. One of the best synth tutorials online & ive been surfing through youtube tutorials for over a decade. Just having this video's insights w/ the video/audio demonstrations is enough to get the mind jogging & feeling less intimidated when opening up synth plugins hoping to craft these different styles we've all heard but so few of us understand...til now. Thanks man!

Is the master channel of the setuper peaking into the red? If you have any peaks over 0dB it will distort. Please do let know, We will get

It's been a while since this video came out, but if I recall correctly I had a limiter applied (I usually use LoudMax, which is free), so it keeps stuff from peaking.

I'm using audacity because it's a free DAW, so good luck to me.

Use whatever you've got! Some free synth plugins and a more sample-based workflow is a good start.

@takemetoyonk 3 года назад

Is this something you can do on one hardware synth? And what type would that be?

@GabeMillerMusic 3 года назад

You can do most of the stuff I showed on a whole lot of hardware synths. The only thing you can't do on every synth is the wavetable based growl stuff.

The Supersaw is the Comic Sans MS of dance music.

@GabeMillerMusic 3 года назад

You'd be shocked at how much of sound design in a ton of music (not just electronic) relies on the supersaw as its foundation in some form. It's more like the Arial of electronic music if anything.

@donaldpriola1807 3 года назад

@@GabeMillerMusic Fair enough. It's just a tried sound to me, but I certainly see it as a foundation. :)

@TheFreddy3kid 3 года назад

Are you just messing with Serum's default settings, or did you get the sound you wanted before the tutorial started? I'm just trying to see if Serum sounds that good out of the box

@GabeMillerMusic 3 года назад

I started from the default settings. It can sound that good out of the box, but do note that a lot of synth plugins that use subtractive synthesis are capable of most of the sounds in this video (other than the growls near the end).

@TheFreddy3kid 3 года назад

@@GabeMillerMusic I was following along in Sytrus. I'm starting to feel comfortable enough with it too make nice saws, but I was impressed with Serums sound right away. 16 unisons definitely added some depth. Plus, the tone was warm with a healthy amount of coarseness from the detune

@familyjunk3989 Год назад

I just got Serum and followed this video, you can get the EXACT sounds you hear just by following along. The only sound you cant get is the last one where Gabe is using a custom wavetable he made from a dubstep song. Would luv to get that wavetable to follow long :) hint hint!
