Xfer Records Serum v2.0.17-V.R screenshot
Team: V.R | Date: 2025.4 | Size: 1.24 GB
The original motivation for creating Serum was to have a dream synthesizer that did not exist: a wavetable synthesizer with a truly high-quality sound, visual and creative workflow-oriented interface to make creating and altering sounds fun instead of tedious, and the ability to "go deep" when desired - to create / import / edit / morph wavetables, and manipulate these on playback in real-time.

Serum version 2 blasts the sonic palette wide-open, offering the user ridiculous power, control and expression over their sonic output - with many oscillator types, flexible effect routing, arpeggiator and clip sequencer - the goal with Serum 2 was to empower Serum users to fully realize their sound and music ideas into form.

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.

SAMPLE OSCILLATOR
Despite the simple premise of playing back a sample, the Sample oscillator packs a punch. Despite being really good for sample playback and offering FM/PD/Distortion types, the sample oscillator also offers looping with snap loop detection, flexible loop modulation, a Rate control for 'tape stop' effects and similar, sample slicing with realtime score extraction / playback and tails mode, and more.

GRANULAR OSCILLATOR
Serum 2 adds a powerful Granular Oscillator which despite the small look packs a host of sophisticated features, allowing you to experiment in a wide range of ways of creating new sound / breathing new life into sample material.

SPECTRAL OSCILLATOR
The Spectral Oscillator allows for realtime resynthesis of samples at the harmonic level, and transient detection processing similar to that found in advanced timestretching algorithms enables you to shape time and frequencies in radical ways.

Well, then, I suppose we'll never see you make any more comments in a Serum post, right?

RIGHT?

"Why there are so many obsessive compulsive releases for this from different groups?"

-Why does BMW/Benz even bother when Honda gets the same thing done? So many 'Groups' seem to be obsessed with reinventing the automobile every year.

-Why create Insta, wasn't Facebook good enough? So many obsessive groups trying to achieve the same thing 24/7...craaaaaazy.

-Obsession with not-world domination ended WWII.

"I remember having tried this years ago, it always fked up and never really worked..."

-Yes they did work, some after revision. You were doing it wrong.

Two reasons we all do what we do in any competitive field.

1. Bragging rights.

2. Success forces all the girls/boys who rejected us to bow down and recognize a real player. This was nerd-ass Jobs, Bezos, Musk, Gates, and Zucks sole motivation for their success.

Soon, you will be cheating yourself out of Serum 2 also, enjoy.

all versions, and previous, even unmodified. freeze Protools on close if you loaded this plugin.
there is something wrong that is blocking the normal closing of the program.
no other plugin reacts like this. it's seems coded with the feet.

I tried to find a Sound that is using a lot of CPU power and maybe even spikes my cpu.

i went through Preset folder >> Soundscape , Seq, Pluck , Lead , SFX , Orchestral and some other Preset folders.

I could not find any Sound that is using more than 2% of my AMD 7900 CPU.

Please if there is a Sound that is using a lot CPU on your PC please let me know, i want to test it.

The Basic Bass, SEQ sounds use less than 1% even with LFO, MODs and FX

so far this version is great.

You are lucky man.
Try guitars, pads sounds.
I have I9, 32 Gb and CPU usage jumps up to 100% with some sounds.
This is only if you use presets for Serum 2. With presets from v.1.0 all is ok.

the guitar sounds are perfectly spread on my 12/24 cores. Same for the Pads around 2-4% in Task manager and Studio One 7 shows 11% usage when i play a Pad with 6 voices.

Honestly this is my 1st AMD CPU i didnt exepct it to be so powerful.

Just so you know, relying on DAW CPU metres is pointless.
You need to open the multi-core CPU metre in Task Manager:

Ctrl-Shift-Esc -> Performance -> CPU -> Right-click window - Change graph to... - Logical Processors.

Now you should have a clear read-out of all cores and will see if ONE core spikes when playing VSTi's.

The DAW shows 8-11%

Task Manager does not go above 3% on 6 Voices for consuming Pad sound.

One Guitar Sound is heavy , using 5% CPU in Task manager with just one voice.
So yes i think if i would have used my old Xeon 1230 CPU i could not use Serum 2 for these power hungry sounds.

This AMD 7900 is good for the bucks i think.

Are you talking about the whole CPU or a single core of it?

Gutted that my music machine is stuck on a lowly i5... (I should probably start using Kontakt more instead of greedy synths). My gaming laptop is better off with a Ryzen 7 5800, so, maybe I should start using that instead, although I don't really like having one machine for all. (Anyway, kinda going off topic a bit, now)

Just a note about CPU usage...

If you go to the Global tab, you can see there is a dropdown where you can select between 3 Quality settings.

What is not obvious without reading the manual, is that the Lock icon next to that dropdown menu will lock that Quality setting for all the presets you load. Each preset has it's own Quality setting, and unless you Lock it to that setting, every new preset you load will continue to go back to whatever the preset maker selected for that preset.

That setting should always stay to the same thing, but the presets will override it. Personally, I think that is a terrible decision. Global settings should override anything underneath it.

Does anyone know how to use the 'S1 Presets' folder?
