01Overview

Serum CTRL is a preset collection built for Xfer Serum. Resonance Sound, the developer, organizes the 64 presets into five groups: basses, leads, pads, FX and sequenced patches. The developer describes the sounds as drawing on the current underground dance scene. The pack is part of a series of releases that provide presets and settings for controlling various synths, samplers, effects and plugins. Each group gives producers a starting point for sound design inside Serum.

What is inside the Serum CTRL preset pack

The pack contains 21 bass presets, 27 lead presets, 3 pad presets, 5 FX presets and 8 sequenced presets, for a total of 64.

The lead and bass groups make up most of the collection. The sequenced presets give you patches that already include movement, so you can start from a playing sound rather than building one from scratch.

Resonance Sound says the presets include macros where needed, so you can morph and experiment with a patch without digging into the full synth structure.

Requirements and how to use the presets

Serum CTRL requires Xfer Serum. The listed system requirement is Serum version 1.351 or higher, so update Serum before loading the presets.

The pack is a set of Serum presets, so you load each one into the synth and adjust the sound from there. The developer also notes that the pack includes midi files, which can serve as a source of ideas for melodies and patterns.
