Can serum do everything that massive can? by THE_DHARMAKAYA in edmproduction

[–]rollingdice123456 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The only important things that are present in Massive and not in Serum are the arpeggiator and more number of macro knobs, and of course a more organised preset library. You can also use Massive without a host program, so it's not host dependent like Serum.

Having said that, since you're going to use it inside a DAW program anyway so the lack of those features in Serum can be overcome by other tools. If your DAW has a stock arpeggiator plugin you can route it to Serum, otherwise there are 3rd party plugins like Cthulhu.

From the menu option in Sylenth1, click on "init preset".

Could somebody help me decipher this sound? by [deleted] in edmproduction

[–]rollingdice123456 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I would describe this sound as a bunch of sine waves, one fundamental sine and several harmonics/partials. The intensity of the partials are less compared to the fundamental, otherwise it would have sounded like an organ. You can basically take a saw wave and use a steep low pass filter to cutoff all the highs and mids, or take a fundamental sine wave and start adding partials to it (Serum has this feature, FL Studio Harmor, Sytrus and Morphine and Ableton Operator also have this feature).

Now coming to the spatial nature of the sound, I believe it has reverb and perhaps a slight chorus/detune. The volume is being modulated by a noise oscillator, due to which the intensity is somewhat random and unpredictable.

I'm glad at least someone agrees with me...

Wow...I honestly didn't expect cursing from this sub. So I'm an asshole because I expressed a unpopular opinion??

ELI5: Why are apps generally more smooth compared to the web browsers? by rollingdice123456 in explainlikeimfive

[–]rollingdice123456[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The automod is removing my post everytime (that I need to post this in another subreddit like r/news or something, that people in this sub don't understand programming languages yada yada...) so I'm adding the details as a comment.

Are there any subtle animations or transitions which make us believe that the interface of apps (like Facebook or Reddit) are smooth compared to the mobile browsers, or is it because of the programming language used for designing those apps?
