Groove3 Serum 2 Sound Design: Melodic Instruments TUTORiAL

Join veteran Groove3 instructor Thomas Cochran for an informative and inspiring Serum 2 video course in which you'll learn how to build your very own patches from scratch, along with plenty of other useful tips. Along the way, Thomas covers many aspects of this formidable virtual instrument, such as send/return busses, wavetables, sampler modes, spectral oscillators, and more! By the end of this Serum 2 course, you'll be ready to start designing custom sounds for your very next production. These Serum 2 videos are designed for Serum 2 users looking to step beyond stock presets and build their own patches.

To begin, Thomas shows you how to create an 80's-style brass lead sound by using the Serum 2 wavetables and sampler mode along with some filtering and effects. Then he demonstrates how the sampler modes, a spectral oscillator, compression, and chorus can be used to create a textured keys patch that can really liven up a track.

Next, you'll see how to craft a great-sounding synth keys sound with the Spectral mode using the spectral oscillators and stacking several effects. This is followed by a look at creating an evolving pad with the granular oscillators - a nice way of achieving a complex sound without needing multiple modulations. To close out the course, you'll learn how to make a percussive pluck synth sound using the new wavetables in Serum 2, along with the new phase distortion modifiers.

If you're ready to start trying your own hand at creating patches in Serum 2, this is the place to start. After viewing the entire course, you'll be armed with plenty of strategies for designing amazing-sounding patches of various types, not to mention you'll be much more comfortable and knowledgeable on the synth overall. Check out the individual Serum 2 sound design video tutorial descriptions for more information on all the ideas and techniques used in the course and how they can help you set your tracks apart with custom-made sounds.
