I think that you're confused as to the meaning of supersaw. No offense intended, what you have sounds like a cheesey riff using a casio keyboard.

If you want a powerful supersaw, you need to use a powerful synth. A JP8080 is ideal; a virus works well. z3ta+ works for software, you can also fiddle with vanguard and v-station but your results will be harder to come by.

Use multiple polyphony; it's a sound that envelopes the entire sonic spectrum, and it needs certain FX and tweaks to sound decent. Span 6 octaves if you have to in order to achieve a powerful and strong supersaw.

And if you need that extra "air" in your supersaw.. the secret is to add a little pink noise.

Cheers, hope this helps someone.

I appreciate this post bro , I'm still a hella noob when it comes to producing .

naw.. it's not pink noise, I know what that sounds like.
I'm just not keen on using supersaws,I only have one song that uses them for leads, nor am I familar on what everything does or means (like polyphony, thanks for introducing me to this btw) so I just keep experiementing and tweaking. And like I said before, that sample is pretty raw (no reverb, no delay, no eq...).

Those synths you mention, I always hear about, (z3ta, and virus and such) and I probably won't ever use because their not free. I only use free soft synths, because I'm poor and lazy. So my collection isn't too big, but how about supersaws in free synth's like Superwave P8, Synth 1, Triangle 2?

Indeed, it does help sir

Be careful with noise additions... I don't like this technique, I rather use a low pass filter with resonance like this :

If your saws are well detuned there will be enough "noise"

What did you use to make that one?

Damn, that's pretty impressive, I thought.

Heres my attempt
