Sound Types in the Hyperpop Serum Presets

The pack is weighted toward the sounds that drive most Hyperpop arrangements. There are 21 leads and 16 basses, which cover the frantic lines and heavy low end the style is known for. The 16 synths and 3 bells add extra texture for hooks and layered parts.

The developer describes the sounds as distorted, upfront basses, glassy plucks, metallic leads and synthetic arps. Those descriptions give a clear picture of the character you can expect across the set.

Samples, Renders and What Is Included

Beyond the presets, the expansion includes 17 bonus WAV samples: 7 FX, 2 hats, 5 kicks and 3 snares. These are the same samples used in the demo track, so you can start a project with nothing beyond your DAW and Serum.

Every preset also comes with a WAV render, which lets you load a sound into a sampler of your choice. The pack contains 65 presets in total, along with 5 FX presets and 2 pads.
