How To Make ANY Sound You Want (Serum Sound Design)

[@esk8world]

I think it's great that pewdiepie is making synth tutorials now!

[@superbroche]

Yeah, but.. he looks like MHA, it's like his Doppelganger

[@iYoungxKhalifa]

lmao this made me go and search if pewdiepie really does 🤣

[@Haxior5506]

He doesn't even look like him.

[@chelseailluminated7862]

It only took me 5 seconds of watching this video to go the the comments and look for this comment

[@gamingexec3957]

Hey man loved the tutorial! Just a tip - when making monophonic sounds like basses or leads, it's typically better to have the unison set to an odd number (i.e. 15 instead of 16) in order to have a clearer fundamental frequency, and let 100% of the harmonics come from the detuned unison signals instead of having two main signals with the detunes on the side. Super minor but helps with mixing :)

[@mhamusic.]

Thats a great tip, i'll definitely keep that in mind. Im not a sound design expert by any means so I really appreciate it! 😁

[@mikebell4396]

yo this comment is literal gold, thank you

[@musicbyfaint]

It depends on your intentions. I saw David Guetta using 16 unisons for basses

[@IstyManame]

You're the reason i go down to the comment section after watching a guide, there is so much gold advices sometimes

[@BrendanRoss]

very cool video - got me going with serum! - One thing that 'stumped' me, How come I don't have 'classic synths' category as an option in the wavetables list? (14:50) in your video.

[@Azthenimus]

Probably solved, but I guess those are some imported wavetables not included in Serum, you can load presets and several stuff into Serum.

[@DarkyM]

Ayy whenever I need help with something you jump in and save my life!

[@mhamusic.]

Aw❤️

[@blubewie]

you're really helping the lot of us, both beginner and advanced producers in every way possible . thanks so much!

[@mhamusic.]

Glad to hear that!!

[@shyamal_music]

Damn!! I was thinking about learning some sound design but was too lazy to do it when i could use presets from you, ultrasonic, stickz and bunch of others. I did learn some epic sound design today...Thanks

[@Memphy]

2:05 that's a very najs preset indeed

[@mhamusic.]

Hahaha

[@matias_8823]

The RDR2 backing soundtrack goes perfectly with the wheels turning in my dumb brain realizing how intuitive Serum is after being completely clueless for a few months now trying to work with it. This is an absolutely genius video

[@mhamusic.]

Hahaha best comment ever. Appreciate it man

[@jaroncrespi]

13:31 not only did you change the wave tables but you also added more automation to the matrix tab and the FM from B knob, could you go over what you did there? very informational vid

[@mhamusic.]

These were small tweaks to things that were already there. I switched the master tune for example to start lower in pitch instead of starting higher in pitch to create a slitghtly different attack :)

[@doomrabbit13]

quick tip: Turning the random phasing off when making stabbier basses can help a lot with alignment/phase issues with the kick, especially for 4x4 genres. Nice job! Good intro video for those new to serum.

[@PlutoniumSlums]

I was playing around with serum today and i figured out how to make decent basses but not really taking it too seriously at the moment

[@ehran9777]

THANK YOU!! IM WORKING ON A SOUNDBANK CURRENTLY

Thats awesome!!

[@ehran9777]

@@Synthanicmusic depends on what genre you would like to make tho. Especially if you suck at sound design. And supersaws aren't the only things used in music.

Finally someone that knows how to teach things the way I think. This beast is gonna be tamed now!

[@HealthyGuitarPlayer]

you did a really good job describing it i feel like this way of teaching can be very benificial because some are very detatched from the initial perspective but this is a really good video.

[@Swempke]

Ain’t that early, but earliest I’ve ever been. Thank u for the free presets!❤️🔥

[@mhamusic.]

Youre welcome!

[@OldDumbTeenCommentAccount]

I love how short but informative this video is. Thank you man

[@emilgarbergs9644]

when u put noise on ur basses. make sure to pitch the noise up. it takes up alot of low end

[@jameskysha9536]

That's why a good eq is a more important final step after any sound design

[@lucasd3658]

Hey man, dope stuff It was so good and useful that, could you do a part 2? lol With like leads now and plucks and maybe even include "making a sound" in a normal production video

[@mhamusic.]

I will definitely include more sound design in my "normal" videos!!

[@JanEkbom]

This was really one of the best and funniest tutorials on Serum. Funny because you revealed the condition of your sock and the odd way of drinking coffee or if it was water.😊

[@Frenzified96]

[@GrowOZ]

Do you have any tips for enhancing vocals when recording and importing them into FL Studio to achieve a polished sound? Are there any recommended plugins for tasks such as autotune, pitch correction, and overall vocal enhancement? For instance, when I sang using Garageband on my phone, I found a feature that added a stage-like quality to my voice, giving it a professional singer's touch.

[@Whito]

I found this video to be useful for learning how to make some of those 'Bread & Butter' kinds of sounds that are very common, and thats primarily what I want to learn how to do now. I already have a copy of SERUM which I got from Renting to now Owning from Splice and I'm comfortable enough with pretty much any Synth, including my MODAL Cobatlt5S Hardware synth when I don't want a computer screen with DAW distracting me. Thanks man!!

[@stephenfurlong7955]

At 14:51 you change the osc 1 sound and select from a folder named ‘classic synths’. Where did that folder come from as I don’t have that in my version of Serum? Is it a download (add-on)? Great video btw - I’ve learnt so much from it so thank you.

I have a issue/question that ive been having trouble solving. In FL Studio, when I export the audio, it sounds fine in FL Studio. But when I export the audio into an MP4, the snares and claps sound almost like distorted clanking glass. I've been trying to fix it and nothing has helped. How do i fix this? 🙁

[@mhamusic.]

Are you exporting into mp4/video format or do you mean mp3? You can change the quality of the export in many ways with mp3 so I would go to Google and see if it could be your export settings

Can you please guide the perspective or just like the process when making some bass sounds like in dubstep. Like how to start what would be some the basic things that almost every sound will have in its making.....

[@mhamusic.]

Im not very good at dubstep, but it has a lot to do with automating the wavetable with things like bend, FM from B etc
