Well, I still didn't really get what "supersaw" is or better where that name comes from. Is it connected to a waveform/pattern of an oscillating curve?
So when a synth sounds "fuzzy" it's a product of using supersaw?
No, it's a specific waveform called SAWTOOTH wich is then transformed, tweaked or modified if you will. Hence the name = supersaw . I sadly cannot go deeper than that because I havent read any about it but you can try google or wiki for some more indept description. Correct me if I'm wrong to, that's just my interpetation of it.

Oh, that explains a lot why the Trance sound became so...uniform...in a lot of cases, especially after 2004. Thanks for the link!
Ironically hardly any of those tracks actually used a Roland JP 8000 Supersaw.
Not really. Alot of new sub genres have emerged with time and have made trance a very diverse genre since there are no real rules or limits to it's sound compared to many other!
You could easily say that trance is mostly a experimental genre mixture of every other out there, trying to define and create the perfect sound
there was one guy (Trance-MB i think) who posted a youtube link to a track a little while ago. I think the track was by Activa. That one had MEGA SUPERSAWZ! I killed my neighbours when i played it. The saws were too razorsharp.
