Hello,
Could someone point me towards a good patch in Sylenth1 that demonstrates PWM? I'm a bit new to synthesis, in case that's not obvious.
Many thanks,

Sylenth1 doesn't have a PWM feature. If you're looking for a trick to do PWM on Sylenth1, one exists. But if you're wanting a general introduction to PWM, you might be better off starting with a synth that explicitly features it.
If you like 80s retro sounds, check out my latest tune…

Thank you Paul!

You can create PWM by using 2 identical saw oscillators and inverting one of them. Then use Phase to set the starting point of the modulation and use the Fine knob on one or both oscs to set the modulation speed. Check preset 66 - LD PWM SID for an example.

Man... just wanted to say, once again, that synth sounds really, really good. I'd be impressed in any capacity, but the fact that it eats so little CPU time is just mindblowing. I just programmed a huge, gorgeous PWM pad, and I feel like I'm rediscovering this synth all over again. Brilliant!

Lennard, I'd love to know what you're working on currently... a big, beastly extended version of Sylenth1 for the true synth fiends out there (me) would be a dream come true.

But, you're the developer, of course... for what it is, Sylenth one couldn't really be much better. But, with this engine, you could easily make something that would easily compete feature-for-feature with a certain German hardware company that may or may not be called 'Access'.

Hi Lennard

It would be cool if you wrote some tutorials for Sylenth1, or made videos, even better! What you had mentioned about the PWM was interesting and useful.
