Highly recommend for anyone that really wants to know how serum works. Super in depth masterclass that will change how you use serum guaranteed.

I always like to tell my friends how, in my opinion, Au5 is the most advanced and creative dubstep producer who knows his craft better than anyone else. And with every tutorial Austin releases, I'm more certain of that belief. This one is no exception.

[@hlo702]

I second that

[@variolamemi]

agree

[@djatlasmusik]

AU5 AND VIRtual riot are on the same level imo

[@Soothyn]

Au5 is a fuckin genius, but there's necessarily bias because not every producer is posting tutorials and demonstrating their knowledge.

I agree but you gotta admit Subtronics is up there too at this point.

Yep it’s a C7 ya theory freaks!

[@iammodus]

Being able to adjust all the filter parameters within Serum FX like you would on an actual Serum patch, and have them count towards the resonator effect is probably the most useful thing about this - I'll definitely be trying this out in the next few days 😮

[@LETTMusic]

When anyone ever just says, Vital is free Serum, I always point out that Serum FX exists. It's so slept on as a standalone FX rack plugin with all the nice built in filters, distortion modules, compressor/OTT, etc. But here you are showing off Serum FX to a whole new level. I completely forgot about the Noise OSC being able to route audio in in the FX version.

[@dealloc]

And even with Serum itself I feel like it can still do a lot more than Vital. It's just kind of "hidden" features that you have experiment with it. I like it when I can use a synth (or any plugin) by sort of stepping out of the standard UI and think more about composing things on top. For example rendering OSCs + FX into their own wavetables is something I do a ton without having to layer a bunch of tracks with Serum on it; and I can easily save them as their own wavetables or even entire presets.

[@NZsaltz]

@@dealloc Vital actually can also do that. Both synths have some really cool stuff in them, and neither are worth simplifying to a clone of the other

[@SarmadGhafoorOfficial]

I bought the serum masterclass some years ago and it was a game changer. Highly recommended!

[@cyrusrichard8935]

I've never though about people discovering new stuff about serum. And this time it's on serum effect, even more mind blowing. Thank you for sharing !

[@TheBlankSky]

So glad you did a video on this! Saw a recording of Virtual Riot showing his use of serum FX for resonating with this method on his Instagram but he never went too in depth for it Definitely gotta try this out

[@BVSSIC]

I love using just tuning for filter stuff man, it gives compressors and clippers after a much nicer time hahaha

[@DANETRONICMUSIC]

Inspiring!! I’ve got to try this out!! I’ve been dying for a new technique!

[@HyprPosition]

I've been doing this in Vital for some time now using the audio engine or the granular wavetable engine technique (there are tutorials for this) and have to say that polyphonic filters are POG. I don't own serum but I know the filters are nice

[@valentinbrunn4937]

Did u see my insta story before you made this? 😁 love it thanks for sharing the knowledge! I hope some other audio effect plugins in the future support multi-voice filters and/or resonators, I think the way serumFX does it is really smart. It would be easy to program a volume-compensation for however many individual audio streams are running through it. Edit: nvmind I saw your other comment about you recording this a while ago :)

[@au5music]

yo let's hit up Duda and see if he'll add a polyphony count modulator!

[@Trentcast]

Have either of you played with the voicing capabilities within Bitwig?! Oh my gawd it’s insane what you can do with Poly Grid.

[@timferret7102]

Yeah i'd second the Bitwig comment. Bitwig is Ableton on steroids

[@eisenerez]

Any poly synth with an input should be able to do this effect, even old ones like zebra / nord modular / scope modular etc.. and now with serum Love it! Love that you share everything!

[@SteveDuda1]

Another epic video, it really showcases how much creative technique can be unlocked from understanding fundamental principles. Serum supports MTS-ESP, I would recommend checking it out for microtonal use, as it will "wirelessly" control all your Serum instances (and many other synths) allowing for dynamic microtuning on the fly!

[@msp420]

that audio in which I didn't even know was a possibility is blowing my mind....so many possibilities

[@prodfun]

would really love to see a video of you using this/similar techniques to produce an entire song

[@msp420]

I do love me some Serum sounds

[@Gnurklesquimp2]

If you want a SUPER full spectrum covering sound without running into the lower interval limit, mimicing the pattern of the harmonic series is great. You can play only each new note in the octave it occurs in (Adjusted for your chord) and have it play octaves thereof like AU5 did with his chord here. Be wary of distortion though, wish we had clean solutions to move harmonics into note positions AFTER distortion. To get a feel for this, grab any synth that let's you choose harmonics and use only the root and it's octaves, it'll give kind of an organ sound. Just making that 5th harmonic minor rather than ~major is a HUGE trick btw., use planed chords with that for a really nice retro house/jungle or ~2010 deephouse sound etc., for example.

[@scottburgert9538]

Ive found that serum, serum fx and omnisphere do everything I need. Maybe diva if I feel like murdering my cpu. serum is such a good synth. would be super cool if you could do granular stuff in serum though. then id use serum for everything

[@anson7776]

this is insane, i need to know how to do it in FL!!

[@kinka16]

11:23 sounds like noise res in harmor as well !

[@CmoIsDaNam3i]

Not wrong either. Its actually shockingly close. Also too with another FL plugin using Vocodex just over any sound and using the "Hold" option along with snapping to specific note frequencies will basically have the modal filter thing going on too. Allows for instant color bass.
