I quite like the sound of Serum (it eats CPU cycles like crazy, though, especially the sequences), and the GUI is stunning! I probably can't get before the intro offer is over, since the budget this month only allowed for Serum or Bazille, and the latter was a little cheaper. Are there plans to make the GUI resizable? (Just a few different sizes to choose from.) Is Linux support on the horizon at all?

Cheers, some CPU savings are on the horizon, but I don't like making promises. Especially if you aren't buying this month then you'll be able to re-evaluate that (and hopefully everyone else can more in the near term, I plan a 1.01 release in the near future).

I'm not willing to make promises there because that wouldn't be right, I will say it's on the requests list.

unfortunately Linux support is very unlikely, I won't say 'never' but not this year, or next year..

Warm Regards,
Steve

I have heard some say Serum cannot do warm synth pads.
Well hold on now, Wilbur....
Not only can it do warm, analog pads, it can also do it with finesse.
Great Synth!

Its funny to say this synth can't do something! It can do pretty much anything, it only depends on what u put in those wavetable oscillators right?

Very much like Waldorf Wave, maybe the best synth(wavetable) ever.

cheers!

That's very fair, thanks Steve! It's really a superb synth, and I definitely dig its sound (love all the demos people are posting), so I may come up with the money before the end of the month. From what I can tell, you're not doing sales often, or at all, so the intro price is probably as inexpensive as it'll ever get.

It can do a great deal due to the wavetables, filters, etc.
No synth can do every thing BUT Serum can do a broad range of tricks.

Yes

But Waves is a bit late in the game and the features of Codex are very limited compared to Serum.

Question:
Why isn't the graph of the Warp->Remap copied with the oscillator when choosing copy A->B - feature or bug? I would prefer if the remap graph would be copied with the osc.

Oversight. You can save the graph shape and reload it, of course. I'll add that in the next beta!

@Steve
Btw. there is a automation bug.. sometimes the automation is not working if eg. the filter knob is manually moved and has a modulator attached. It looks a bit like a parameter out of range thingy. I have the actual Beta running.

Two Serums in the evening will get you through the night:

Serum and Nave / PC.
More wavetable is not and I do not need.
