A third oscillator<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The foundation of any synthesizer is its oscillators, and Serum 2 introduces a third primary oscillator, giving you a total of five sound sources to combine and manipulate. What&#8217;s more, each primary oscillator now supports independent synthesis types, unlocking massive creative possibilities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. New sound sources and synthesis options<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Serum 2 features a multi-sample engine that allows you to load multi-sampled instruments in SFZ format\u2014take a listen to the percussion, bass, and drum sounds at 0:36 in the video for some examples. You can also use the sample engine to drag-and-drop one-shots from <a href=\"https:\/\/splice.com\/features\/sounds\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Splice Sounds<\/a> to kickstart your sound design.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Granular synthesis<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>There are also significant improvements in Serum 2&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/intro-granular-synthesis\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">granular synthesis<\/a> capabilities, which now allow for up to 256 simultaneous grains. Give it a try the next time you&#8217;re looking to create lush textures, atmospheric pads, or chaotic soundscapes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4. Spectral mode<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The spectral mode is arguably the most powerful oscillator type in the synth. Unlike traditional waveform synthesis, spectral synthesis focuses on <a href=\"https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/what-are-harmonics\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">harmonic content,<\/a> allowing for precise control over timbre.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5. Enhanced wavetable synthesis<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>While Serum has always been known for <a href=\"https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/what-is-wavetable-synthesis\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">wavetable synthesis,<\/a> Serum 2 has made even more enhancements in this area, now allowing users to edit individual unison starting phases. The new smooth interpolation mode also ensures seamless transitions between wavetables, making your sound design even more musical and expressive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-wp-embed is-provider-blog-splice wp-block-embed-blog-splice\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"wp-embedded-content\" data-secret=\"Inl2zLxFxa\"><a href=\"https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/what-is-wavetable-synthesis\/\">What is wavetable synthesis?<\/a><\/blockquote><iframe class=\"wp-embedded-content\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts\" security=\"restricted\" style=\"position: absolute; clip: rect(1px, 1px, 1px, 1px);\" title=\"&#8220;What is wavetable synthesis?&#8221; &#8212; Blog | Splice\" src=\"https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/what-is-wavetable-synthesis\/embed\/#?secret=w3obNMPxQG#?secret=Inl2zLxFxa\" data-secret=\"Inl2zLxFxa\" width=\"370\" height=\"209\" frameborder=\"0\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"Modulation\">Expanded modulation options in Serum 2<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Modulation has always been another strong suit of Serum, and its successor takes it even further\u2014here are some of the many updates:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Enhanced LFO system:<\/strong> Independent grid sizes for X and Y axes.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Higher LFO rates:<\/strong> Push rates up to 1 kHz for unique harmonics.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>New path LFO feature:<\/strong> Dual X\/Y output for advanced modulation routing.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Custom paths:<\/strong> Drawable LFO shapes for endless creative possibilities.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Improved envelopes:<\/strong> Four envelopes, BPM sync, inverse legato settings, and fully editable modulation remap curves.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Eight macros:<\/strong> Double the customization for real-time sound control.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"Effects\">Powerful effects in Serum 2<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Serum 2 expands on the synth&#8217;s powerful effects section with several new modules:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Bode frequency shifter:<\/strong> Unique spectral shifting capabilities.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Convolution processor:<\/strong> New layers that emphasize depth and texture.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Advanced distortion:<\/strong> Stackable counts for richer sound design.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Expanded reverb options:<\/strong> Three new modes to dial in the sense of space you&#8217;re looking for.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Splitter modules:<\/strong> Effects distribution to specific frequency ranges or mid\/side signals.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>New filter types:<\/strong> A state variable filter for custom filter shapes and morphing.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Multi-effects buses:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/audio-bus-guide\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Advanced routing and processing<\/a> options for dynamic and efficient sound design.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>New mix panel:<\/strong> Streamlined workflow for leveling and sound adjustments.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"Sequencing\">Enhanced sequencing capabilities in Serum 2<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Last but not least, it&#8217;s worth quickly mentioning that Serum 2 introduces several features aimed at improving workflow and live performance.
