Native Instruments Massive has been an influential force in music
production since its launch in 2022. It has gained wide popularity for its automation and routing options. Its super flexible wavetable-based oscillators can be mixed or affect each other in a variety of ways, such as ring modulation, formant modulation, and even frequency modulation.
Xfer's Serum is a newcomer, developed by Steve Duda and is an evolution of what a wavetable synthesis can be. Unlike massive ones, serum wavetables are user editable. There are built-in crafting tools that mean a boss's life can last even a long time. The sound design possibilities are endless.
Reddit users didn't want to leave these huge wavetables behind and managed to extract them from the raw data inside the huge one with a python script. Now we can all combine mass and serum into a single mega synth. The wave table data needed to be cleaned up so that it would appear correctly in the serum. Diligent reddit user N4N4KI came to the rescue and did the tedious work of fixing them for all of us.
