Serum 2 is in the works, DMG Audio is also involved!

Even with correct punctuation it's still , every popular synth is touted as an industry-game changer by it's fanboys .
Serum is just popular nothing more nothing less ,but shaking the music industry on it's fundaments ? .c'mon wake up

Now you are injecting hyperbole into the quote. It's been more influential than your shitty Reaktor ensembles. How about that for scale?

Lol, you’re the first one calling them shitty , The 30 k downloads and loved by many prove otherwise ( I even received donations ) but I am sure you haven’t even tried them .
But yeah , keep trying with your pathetic ad hominem attacks

I agree with others, Serum needs at least 2 filters in main window, and probably 1-2 more oscilators and that's it, I would be happy to upgrade. Even though I barely scratched the surface of the Serum 1, just started learning it after owning it for 2 years. I just hope it will keep its minimalist aesthetics, all in one window design and flat GUI. I have no idea how it will be achieved if Duda decides to add more oscilators/filters. Perhaps multiple windows is inevitability.

All this time, I thought Maustødt was a great sound designer. Now, it turns out he was just another Serum user.

[whassup]

In fact he was involved in the development of the UI I think? TAL contributed with some of the effects and filters are some older Cytomic design, I ting

Wasn't it that Steve and Joel are big long time buddies?

Yo wvshpr what’s the point of bashing his work? Like what mate what’s the point of calling it shitty? I would never call out someone like that publicly, just stay professional.

Gentleclock don’t be upset mate your stuff is actually topnotch and well regarded by many as a matter of fact

[SeeingInMidi]

Lol, musicians can be so silly sometimes. All this fighting over being quoted saying that Serum was a game changer. I was just stating the obvious from my perspective. Don't be married to your plugins and just go make some music for once.

[vurt]

It was a game changer and it changed the music industry. Maybe that’s the sane thing.

And he didn’t put the words game and industry next to each other.

Clumsily written but obviously not referring to ways to exploit gamers’ pockets or new fight paradigms, no? I don’t like games don’t know what PBR is.

Ah, I see what you mean. Cheers!

All good

And by “ I don’t like games” I mean I want to like them but I’m so bad that I don’t usually bother as it makes me anxious.

Except for the 2 Portals which I actually finished. Not sure what’s different about them.

ive finally learned how to not just bend and crouch in cod!
now im running round in a circle being shot. it's progress.

Result!

it's not all good news. i started playing spiderman a few years ago, and mary jane has been stuck in a garage so long, i think peter has moved on to gwen by now

[Modular Manfred]

Yeah, I agree with you. I married a delay plugin once and it ended up with a nasty divorce. The b*tch left with half of my stuff.

not surprised, you with a delay was never gonna work, with your star sign you want a flanger.

Back to Serum being a so-called game changer. Although I have way more virtual synths than I could ever need (most, but not all, of the mainstream ones), I don't have Serum and know very little about it. So (and this is a genuine question, not snark) what, if anything, does Serum bring to the table that other synths do not?

[bmanic]

New standard for popular synths should be minimum 4 layers,4 osc,4 filters,4 lfo's,4 adsr so on,as well limitless mod matrix modulations - such stuff are still not available in any pop 'sugar' synth

Vengeance Sound Avenger synth could be considered a "popular" synth and it indeed provides everything you just wrote (+ more).

Now: a lot of high-quality 3rd party presets and endless youtube tutorials/tips and tricks

At launch: I think it's the first wavetable synth that has a lot of visualized elements like you can literally see how the wavetable morph, and how the LFO and Envelope move.
Very high-quality sound and effects at that time, if you want really clean and crisp sound.

This.

I don't own Serum, and I'm not into EDM, but it's clearly a very important synth in the EDM world. Came out at the right time. Had a feature set, sound and UI that resonated with some big name producers, had a ton of online tutorials, and a few companies making bank selling presets for it. That's not to say it's the only synth that checks those boxes, but as a non-EDM guy that's never used it, even I can recognize Serum's importance.

It's hard to think about, and is a separate conversation, but there is a strong case to be made that there are some modern classics out there that are to today's music what the DX-7 was to the 80's or the Prophet-5, or the Minimoog for music in the 70's and 80's. Serum would likely qualify even if it has meant absolutely nothing to me other than maybe having helped inform Hive in some way, shape or form.

Imagine if FabFilter (best known for it's pro level mixing/mastering plugins) made a clinical and clean sounding wavetable VST synth. That's what Serum is in a nutshell.
