    That sahsa xpander was absolutely blissful. To me, that track encapsulates all that I love about dance music and music created with synths in general. When you changed the routings of the delay, verb & compressor, it came alive. I know you can't, but I wish you could concentrate more on music like xpander. I also hope that this video has switched on a lot of people to that type of quality music and away from some of the stuff that's being produced today. (yes I'm old and a grump)

    Hey Will, I know you have and love Sylenth1, check out the stock preset "014 ARP New Order", it's 99.99% the same sound as Josh Wink's, but uses a different Arp pattern. It's what they used for the Blade dance club theme song (with Wesley snipes). You said in your video that it was the hardest to recreate in Serum.

    • @EDMTips
      @EDMTips  Před 2 lety

      Great question! Usually, yes, but - if there is a specific effect you want to create - then switching up the order of effects is essential. The trick is to know WHY you're doing it. In this example, have the reverb be compressed with the dry signal is important.
