Actually they sound kind of "rubbish" because the FX chain is off. As soon as you add some unison and FX, these sounds will start sounding cheesy. The magic pipe preset is cool, add a little distortion and Haas effect to it and it will sound really cool.
Would i even need this if i already had the minifreak soft synth? This is a serious question - I'm new to the world of soft synths and I'll definitely be picking up the full version of Vital, but after hearing this video i dont see how I'd be needing serum if i already have the minifreak
I will try with the demo version. Only 100 presets work in demo and every 30 sec it makes a beep sound :) i would buy it, but people don't subscribe anyway. This channel will grow in 8 years if it keeps this slow... Very depressing. I try to invest time, energy and money....
@@spaceboxtd3720 my songs too. Actually all song we hear are pushed with a lot of money spent. Without that, no radio plays for free. We need adds for the nusicvideo,etc. At least 10 thousand spent. That's why mediocre songs are known, even annoying songs - someone payed, is not because the song is awesome.
👏🏻 Oh! Sorry I forgot to mention how much I appreciate that you are demoing the sounds in context with musical parts that would use that type of sounds. Not just “phoning it in” playing the same midi part over and over.
To be fair the factory sounds for Serum were like made in like 2016-ish, so they are gonna sound dated. Expansion packs and libraries on the other hand is what makes Serum still viable.
@@Brendan-Black 7 years ago is a long time ago bud. So much has changed since 2016. I do agree some of the "dated" patches do still sound pretty cool in modern times.
I don't even know why I'm watching this. I don't even own Ser- Never mind, a strange force just pulled me to the purchase page. Seriously, though, these factory preset videos are a true blessing. And you get bonus points for no commentary and a lack of intro. Just good old, no-bullshit preset walkthroughs. Thank you so much!
Thanks ! Too bad that I get 1 subscriber for 600 views, which is very low. Kids trying to listen to a vst, 90 % of them don't watch more than 30 seconds. Bad idea to make this channel. If this was in the 90'....i probably had 5 million subscribers. This generation has no patience. ADD
lol @ hella old school techno riff @ 9:10 - what's that from? sounds familiar. also thanks for the vid. synth sounds good, nice formant filter, but think i'll save my money, think i can do most of this already.
better than all of them. Omnisphere I think would be ok for certain sounds but the rest sound trash. I can understand why Serum is at #1 these days and used by many famous artists. It sounds very close to hardware synths but I still think Sylenth1 is the best of all time. Serum's quality, clarity and brightness is close to Sylenth1.
Thanks to your videos, I might have to get Serum and Diva for edm and perhaps Omnisphere down the road! What drum vst do you recommend for edm- or do you just use loop and one- shot packs?
Theres free patches for zebra at uhe patch library. I highly recommend alot of them, especially michael kastrup ones. Very good bnb sounds in those (700ish) theres total of around 10k. Did i say its free? Zebra faxtory presets are 15 years old and focused on showcasing synths capabilities rather than bnb(updates have brought newer ones too) Zebra has really cool oscillator warp modes and since its now 99€ with all the uhe commercial libraries+zebrahz id encourage to try it.
Agreed. Crazy sound design options but overall it just sounds like no low harmonics unless you do some subtle layering I guess. Similar problem with all softsynths though to be honest.
@@CuriousPassenger Omnisphere does a lot more than just samples. It also includes a complete virtual analog synth. It does both. The perception that Omni is just a rompler is not accurate.
@@pacificbase did I mention my opinion matches everyone's opinion? So much serum hype, so I expected a bit more, well, it's obviously not for me and the earth still keeps on rotating. Must be hard to run a youtube channel and not being able to accept an opinion that does not match yours
