In this video, I provide an overview and my initial thoughts on the newly released Xfer Serum 2 synthesizer, highlighting its new features like the addition of a third oscillator with multiple modes, an updated GUI, and an expanded modulation system. While I appreciate the free update for existing owners of Dune 1 and the powerful sound design capabilities with features like the wavetable editor and a variety of filter options, I also express some concerns about its interface limitations such as the limited number of LFOs and the cumbersome modulation adjustments. Overall, Dune 2 is a solid and versatile synthesizer package, though not revolutionary, with its best-in-class wavetable editor and added functionalities making it a worthwhile investment.

I made a new generative patch today, using the stereo cords feature to send different pitches and gate information to the left and right channels, feeding oscillators. The FX section uses a convolution I sampled from Valhalla Supermassive combined with the stock reverb. I also added some frequency and pitch shifters for modulation and grainy FX. You can download the patch for free on my GitHub repo: https://bit.ly/3VEm7yE

Here are 4 more tracks from my vault that finally made it to completion. You can hear me trying to bridge the gap between ambient and drum and bass without making it too chill. It's deep and groovy, which is probably how I like it best.
