You never heard saw sounds coming out of a moog?
Here's the first then: [[ LINK REMOVED ]]

Thanks flutlicht junkie for explaining my idea.

btw-
Like said, Reaktor is a bad ass, and Vaz aswell, but I won't recommend them to someone who hardly knew how to install a vsti, no offence, I just think he ain't ready for those kind of tools.
oh, and of course, I use my JP8080 aswell for that.

so is pro53 the one is should get for supersaw purposes?

is there a guide to programming a pro53 synth or another one? because it just sounds like a waveform oscillator u get out of science.

its hard to see how u can go from a monotone noise to a lush 'rank 1 - airwave' sound.

i have searched google but it is hard to find what iam looking for especially when i dont really know what im looking for exactly.

can anyone link me to a guide or something to program a synth to make supersaw sounds?

that would be greatly appreciated

actually i got the vst installed myself, i just hadnt done it in a while. recently went back to producing and the synths is what im trying to learn, i can do most other things. just need a little help.

there was a time when u were shit at making supersaws..

would this guide work ONLY with pro53 by the way?

basicly same principle bro...try the same idea on other stuff, should come out pretty much the same.

I hate to say this but if you want to make a supersaw, get a part time job, save up 450 smackeroons and just buy a JP8000 and get it out of your system.

You will never clone it perfectly. I tried on and off for a couple of months painstakingly emulating one on a Virus B and the closer you get, the more you realise that there are just some subtleties you can't make up for without wasting an unbelievable amount of time and effort.

Why do people exert so much effort to emulate an emulation? Seriously, the supersaw itself sounds like shit compared to the unison effects that it tries to sound like.

Could you explain that a little further?

Go listen to a song like Cygnus X - Superstring. That's not a Supersaw. It's four years too early. That's a unison effect made with an analog synthesizer. That is warmth. Now go listen to System F - Out of the Blue. The famed supersaw pales in comparison. It only sounds good when a chorus effect is added, which is pretty much a unison effect. I'd be willing to bet that even Cygnus X used a chorus on whatever synth they were using.

Seriously, I get a perfectly fine chorus effect out of Synth1 by just detuning the second ocsillator, noodling the chorus to where I like it and pressing the unison button. Voila, warm thick sounds. Not necessarily as warm as analog unison, but then neither was the JP 8080 supersaw.
