the very first experiment on this stream, panning half of the overtones left and half right, is already so darn creative. no idea how these ideas come to you but i love it lol
and then swapping them every oscillation! i thought it was going in the direction of audio rate modulation and was wondering how you could do that in serum but manually drawing the wavetables was so much cooler hahaha. so sick!
I saw some underground synth that has it for the width knob, I think was called Tetra, yes it is. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-K5QnC98Hqv8.html
That distortion sweep on the serum lead made me OBSESSED with the song you're making. Couldn't stop looping that little part because it's so delicious, like, honestly
I'm doing a unit on complex and fourier analysis at the moment, the mathematical study of overtones, and I believe some of what you are experimenting with can be written up as integrals and solved to give you things like 0 correlation, equal balance, etc!!! Especially when you talked about having the panning swap each oscilation, which would make a very interesting fourier series.
This is so fun! Heads up though, at 20:00 moving the phase continuously forth and back changes pitch up and down so together with osc 2 which is static you created a stereo chorus
this is actually so huge. making something wide without any unison detune is so awesome. this could go crazy with just intonation as well, getting a wide sound while still maintaining the frequencies.
Serum 1.368 table editor allows you to swap between osc a and b in the editor without having to jump out to the main UI -- just in case you weren't aware ;) BTW, this is very useful -- I've recently taken a step back from my analog gear to spend more time in wave table synths due to capabilities like this. Appreciate you sharing.
5:54 Now I’m dreaming about a mid-side panning knob in a synth… It would open some possibilities like panning odds +100% side and evens −100% side. To mimic that with normal panning one would need two oscillators at minimum too, but only if there are tools to change phases of some harmonics en masse. Otherwise a clean way to do that would require _four_ oscs (odds left, odds right, evens left, evens right, two of them with reversed polarity).
the width experiment at the beginning made me think it's a shame you don't use FL Studio (and that they haven't re-released it as a vst yet) because you I think you would just LOVE Harmor.
did you know if you click an effect and press enter it drops it right into your chain. you can also hold the click and just keep pressing enter to drop like three or four EQs at once. or just infinite lol.
You’ll probably not see this but have you tried the free alternative to Serum - Vital? I honestly like it better than Serum and it would be really cool to see what you could do with it.
That harmonic panned saw wave sounds like something you would make with Razor... I think that's how it mostly made sounds wide, can't remember the name of the "effect" that did that. But VR is kinda wrong saying it's not different "voices" on each side, it's pretty much the same as putting two different wavetables on each side, and in fact each side has it's own wavetable with it's own sound (the weird half saw sounds, I'm personally not a big fan, just remember Razor did this like 13 years ago, nothing new, except none knows Razor nowadays lol)
I'm only a few min into the video, but if you haven't messed with Pigments harmonic engine yet you really should, you can split partials and overtones left and right. I would be shocked if you haven't yet though!
Hi VR, i got any Id for you, a concept video Where you start a track from scratch and keep making video on it until the song is out. Like everytime you work on it, you do an episod. I mean, that could be great for us first, because we will see another project from start to end. Even for the technical part but also for the creative process. And for you, it could be a good format of video, like one per week or more (or less) and, it could be a strong promotion for the track, build the hype about it because people are gonna wait the end to ear it fully on their phone. Not here to say "DO IT" but a smaller one, do it.. lol just an idea that could be more content for us and something cool for a release track for you. Huge fan, hopefully you gonna take it the right way, i dont have better id than you, i was just thinking about it Love
for some reason RU-vid is only showing a minute of this stream and not the entire 2h40m+. can you please look into this? maybe youtube/your computer still has the rest of the stream
