01Overview

Techno Serum is the fourth release in 5Pin Media's Serum preset series. It contains 130 presets built for Xfer Records Serum, covering a broad set of categories from basses and leads to pads, plucks, hoovers and percussion. The developer says the sounds draw on the work of artists such as Minilogue, Dubfire, Adam Beyer and Umek. Each preset is built around macros, so the tone and expression can be shaped quickly in performance or during arrangement.

Sound Categories and Coverage

The pack is organized into 14 categories: Bass, Bell, Brass, Drum, FX, Hoover, Keys, Lead, Mallet, Motion, Pad, Pluck, Percussion, Sequence and Texture. The largest groups are Lead with 15 presets, Drum with 14, FX with 12 and Sequence with 12. Bass has 27 presets, which gives producers a wide choice of low-end starting points for techno and tech house grooves.

Because the presets are grouped by function, it is easy to find a sound for a specific role in a track, whether that is a rolling bassline, a percussive sequence or an atmospheric texture.

Macro Control and Workflow

Every preset is macro-driven, so the tone and expression can be controlled through a MIDI controller or through DAW automation. This makes the presets suited to live tweaking and to building movement across a long arrangement without digging into the synth's full parameter tree.

The developer positions the pack for Minimal, Progressive House and Tech House styles, so it fits producers working in those genres.
