Spire, Viper - Virus Ti style hypersaw
Diva - classic Rolandish supersaw
Sylenth - a cross between the above characters
Rapid - does very convincing super/hypersaws reminding me of Virus but with a tad brighter and rougher sound.

One guy made a comparison of alsmost all existing supersaws, though it was few years ago and some of the newer synths are not present here.

BeepStreet Sunrizer is a great emulation of the JP-8000 which has decent supersaws:

How you know my namesurreal wrote:Why do you say that Geoff.. are you refering to massive in general or on a certain update of massive?
Erm, well when I did a Massive bank I always thought the unison sounded phasey and metallic no matter what I did. You could get there in the end, but it was so much harder work than almost everything else available.

True. I noticed that as well with the supersaw-y kind of sounds. Overall, i'd describe Massive's sound as a bit "metallic harsh". The filters are also extremely digital. Like in - 10 years ago digital. Not the best synth for these kind of sounds.tehlord wrote:when I did a Massive bank I always thought the unison sounded phasey and metallic no matter what I did.

I love to use Serum for supersaws. I think it's the one that has the cleanest Unison. Not a coincidence it's the most used synth for that type of sounds in EDM right now.
Other good alternatives are Hive (I use it a lot for everything that sounds digital, Virus ish too), Sylenth1, Spire. I know some producers who use Diva as well.

It does lots of stuff well, but it's not a well that I wish to drink fromchk071 wrote:True. I noticed that as well with the supersaw-y kind of sounds.

Not a coincidence EDM right now is mostly barely listenable because of these screeching, overly harsh high frequencies Serum is very prone to producesinemotor wrote:I love to use Serum for supersaws.
