Jam of electronic and acoustic sources. Experimenting with convolution processing and custom impulse responses

DUB Sound Design

I had the honor of contributing stock factory voicing to Steve Duda / Xfer Record's latest creation, the synth juggernaut known as Serum. I wanted to compose a showcase of these sounds to show everyone the ridiculous level of sound design you can get straight out of the box with this remarkable instrument.

All of the bass, synth, and FX sounds in this track are "SN" factory patches straight out of Serum. The drums include a lot of material from PluginGuru's Mega Macho Drums library, in addition to some custom sounds of my own.

Please let me know what you think, and be sure to grab Serum from the Xfer Records site!

This music was made from this creepy thing on the image - recorded with three contact mics. No samples and morphing were added, just raw sounds with little bit of reverb and delays for and pad synth for atmosphere.
