WAVETABLE OSCILLATOR
Serum's now legendary Wavetable Oscillator has been refined with additional flexibility. Smooth Interpolation mode allows for near-infinite frame positions in the wavetable (no morph needed). There is filtering, FM, PD, ring mod, distortions and new wavetable warps. Even we have yet to fully explore the outer reaches of what can be achieved by the dual warps available for any of the main oscillator types.
MULTISAMPLE OSCILLATOR
Enables replication of real instruments and sounds found elsewhere. Serum 2 ships with a massive, exclusive, and original library of real instruments recorded around the world, including orchestra, choir, pianos, guitars, and much more. Create or import your own from multisample recordings using the (open standard and human-readable) sfz file format.
