Free Serum wavetables and Patches on www.fragmentaudio.com! Install the demo version of Xfer Serum on the official website. Drag the contents of the Move folder to the appropriate folder (AppData, Documents, etc.) Add it to your audio application or your choice. The Cymatics presets are already in the Documents folder and should be displayed in the serum.
Description: Serum is a dream table-wave synthesizer, with really high quality sound, visual and creative interface, has a built-in wavetable editor so that creating music is not a tedious process. The synthesizer has a huge number of wave tables, and of course the ability to create your own. A unison generator that gives up to 16 voices and allows you to flexibly adjust the volume-to-child ratio between them. The sound is very lively, and most importantly modern.

1.29b7 (May 18 2020)
– New: LFO Point modulation
Right-click (ctrl-click MacOS) on a point in the LFO Graph, you will see “Modulate X” and Modulate Y ”options on the pop-up menu.
You will then see a list of (in use) LFO Busses plus one empty one (eg you only see “LFO Bus 1” only when starting a new preset) followed by a list of Mod Sources.
By selecting a mod source, you are Creating a Matrix assignment (Selected Mod Source -> LFO Bus) and also the point association (eg point X axis-> LFO Bus).
The busses allow for multiple points to be controlled by a single Matrix assignment / depth.
You can eg drag-select multiple points and assign them to the same bus.
– New: drag-export last played note as wav file.
You should see a waveform icon appear when mousing over the very top-left of Serum’s window (top-left corner of SERUM logo).
Drag this to the DAW, it records the last played note + velo + duration to a file (Serum Presets / Renders /).
This is a replaying of the note, so the result is like playing the note again (eg will not be literally identical in sound if random or BPM-sync features are enabled).
Please note: you are creating audio files on your hard disk by using this feature (they don’t ‘magically’ get created in the DAW project, that would be nice if it were technically possible), so management of these files is up to you. Serum does not use them directly itself, but if you drag it to your DAW, your DAW may now be referencing this file. If you drag a lot you will end up with a lot of audio files in the Renders folder, so you may want to consider file management techniques (eg relocate or consolidate if using in a project) ahead of time. You can alt-click the drag export button to open the Renders folder in the OS.
– New: Hi resolution resampling of Serum’s skin bitmaps on Windows (gets macOS resampling quality).
Since this is heavy computation (slow), to speed up opening Serum, the resized images get cached (% APPDATA% Xfer Serum) of the last set skin + zoom size. So Serum will resize slower when setting the zoom to a new setting, or selecting a new skin, but if you save the size and / or skin as the default (s) in the SERUM logo menu, then opening should be faster than ever on subsequent openings of the window.
– New: automation parameters for the 8 LFO Rise, LFO Delay controls – these controls were not automatable in the DAW previously.
– New: Level Trim controls for the effect modules
Clicking on the MIX switch on any effect mix knob will expose a modulatable level parameter, to attenuate or boost the output from any effect. This can be useful for attenuating the effect chain level to eg match Direct Out oscillators, or gating / muting sound as well as boosting (eg in front of distortion for more drive).
– New: velocity (click Y location) to clicking the onscreen piano keyboard
– New: “init all LFOs” to main menu
– Fix: when at 110% zoom, tooltip numbers were drawing overlapped on adjusting AHDSR controls modulation depth popup value (note : it is likely there are similar value-display issues to locate and fix)
– Fix: manual value entry on distortion Q below 0.1 would crash
– Fix: better browser support for nested folders, truncated text in the preset filters when using Sort by Location
– Fix: polyphony limit handling / released notes were getting priority over held notes in some situations.

Xfer Records Serum + Serum FX + Update 128b6 (VSTi, AUi) [OSX]
Xfer Records Serum, there is a virtual Wavetable synthesizer of the top class on the market. So I have already anticipated my conclusion in the first sentence of this review, but I recommend you read the review to the end. You will find out why I drew this hasty conclusion, you will see that I was not mistaken.
Let’s see…
Serum is a wavetable synthesizer with two oscillators, over 450 presets and 140 wavetables, the plug-in is factory-equipped and supports the VST, AU and AAX interfaces, available in both 32 and 64-bit.
Presets
When you browse the presets, the bandwidth and high-quality sound quality of the synthesizer becomes clear. There are nine categories to choose from: Bass, Bass, FX, Leads, Misc, Pads, Plucked, Seq, and Synth.
Even when playing the first note, the Xfer Records serum is a pleasure. Many other software syntheses do not sound so powerful and bold until they are reworked with additional control amplifiers or effects.
![Xfer Xfer](/uploads/1/1/7/7/117722222/574624819.gif)
The selection and bandwidth of the presets are also convincing so that you can turn around in a handy turn for your own sound creation.
Here are some important names that helped create the built-in sounds of the Serum: Francis Price, 7 Skies, Adam Szabo, CFA Sound, Steve Duda, Gigantor, ASL SoundLab, Xenox, Jordy Dazz, Derrek, Art of Fighters, P-Lask, Disko Unkle, Sounds of Revolution, and more.
Wavetable Editing
Because all the sound parameters are directly visible and controllable via the tidy user interface. The main window is called “OSC” and here you have the option to select the number of oscillators, assign a waveform table and add the filters to filters, modulators, LFOs, and envelopes.

The waveforms are shown here as a graphic, on request in 2D or 3D. More than 100 wavetables can be selected, which can be edited by means of an editor.
The 10 ten effects offered are quite common with modules such as distortion, flanger, chorus, delay, and reverb, but at a very high sound level.
Xfer Serum Update 2020
The order of the effects is flexible and almost all controls can be modulated.
Matrix
How To Update Serum
All the sound parameters can be assigned to the MIDI control elements and the LFOs and Envelopes via the “Matrix” tab. This creates very lively sounds that have almost nothing in common with their basic sounds.
Although an arpeggiator is missing, the variety of processing options leaves nothing to be desired. So, in the Matrix section, you can make all the fine tunings of your sound.
Update Xfer Serum
Conclusion
Since its release on the market, Serum has earned its respect very quickly among the producers and become one of the best software synthesizers alongside Massive, Nexus, Sylenth, Avenger, Z3bra, Omnispere, etc.
Serum software synthesizer is convincing all along the line. The sounds get through and sound lively and powerful thanks to the processing possibilities. If you listen to the presets, it is quickly clear that serum is at home in every category. Whether basses, leads or pads, the patches are bursting with fullness, force, and breadth.
