How to Process a Melodic Techno Stab in Serum (Part 2)

In part two I add LFO 2 to the German low pass cutoff, then process the stab.

My notes from this Short

01

Low threshold compression and no bass

I add LFO 2 to the German low pass cutoff. Then I simply add compression with a very low threshold, an EQ to get rid of the bass, and delay and reverb with a low cut and a high cut to make it wider.

02

FM from the sub oscillator

You can also take FM from the sub oscillator. Enable it, set it to minus 2 on a sine wave, and you have double the fun.

You can now also change the wavetables and the wavetable position, and really get a lot of dope sounds.
