I bought Serum through Splice, at the time it was possible to resell it, not its not, so I am stuck with it even if I don't use it much. So I really hope version 2 brings something I like so I don't keep feeling like i wasted 189.

I once almost pulled the trigger on the rent to own thing, but, 189 € is way to steep, even doing that. Matter of principle for me.
Yeah, Serum aint cheap... but it's the best wavetable editor available today

Have you tried Icarus from Tone2? Maybe it's a matter of taste, but as for converting a WAV into a wavetable, I find it better than Serum.

I agree... I also think Icarus does better at converting audio to a wavetable. But Icarus is not so flexible for exporting wavetables in a variety of formats for use in other software or hardware wavetable synths.

Yeah that's true. Serus is really great for that.

There is no such thing, all wavetable editors make me want to pluck out my own eyes

If DMG Audio is involved, v2 will cost 378.

You mean just like I have with my existing synths?

If Steve keeps to his word (which I have no reason to doubt) then as a serum owner rod zero will get serum 2 for free.
