One of the most iconic synth sounds in grime, is heard in Skepta’s massive track, “That’s Not Me”. It is really easy to make, as I’ll show you, and is done simply by modulating through a harmonic series. It’s a very retro electric sound and most of the synth design is nailing the effects and eq of it to be a hard, bright sound. This tutorial will use Serum, because it is one of the fastest synths to use in terms of generating sounds, and the waveform view gives great insight into what is actually happening.<\/div>\n

You can hear the synth sound below, throughout the song. It is very bright and really cuts through the mix, giving the song a great edge. In recreating it, that hardest bit was matching the tonal properties of the sound. If you are new to Serum, this tutorial will really show you how much the FX section can transform a sound into something much better. If you are working on any sound in Serum, you will realise that the main page only offers so much, so by going deep into the effects, you can turn an OK sounding patch into something exceptional.<\/div>\n
