    Does it suffer amnesia like Serum 1? (rescanning the same presets over and over when you save/install new presets) or does it remember?

    Nope. If you rescan...then it's a 1 second scan

    My bad. It just scans your old S1 presets...

    Overall mixed feelings. No stretch algorithms for oneshots, weird multisample. Good rework of fx sections and thats probably all. Ableton arp... Dunno, could be done much more and better.

    the new browser manager was so welcome.

    i think for it being only a WT synth, it quite turned into an allrounder, which is great
    and im sure Steve+ team already has even more ideas, where to take Serum 2 next.

    for a free upgrade its crazy good.

    see: https://static.xferrecords.com/Serum 2 What's New.pdf


    The SFZ import is awesome! It even support round robin.

    Set Clip as browser pre-listen is so much more useful than any other prelisten-system found in other synths.


    Not to mention snap to scale etc , so much new exciting stuff


    I suggest to anyone try the demo, there are so many unique new things.
    Not just another new wavetable synth, which can do the same as others.

    Plus the GUI is much more usable (readable) than Nexus'

    What if I'm using Splice Rent-to-Own?
    If you're currently on the Splice Rent-to-Own program for Serum 1:

    It's not accessible yet though through Splice's leasing/rent to own system. Splice still has to add it and they haven't yet.

    im so glad i hoarded an obscene amount of SFZ files over the years from torrents and the sister site.

    serum 2 already picked up the 80gb of presets i never use as well , and it literally to about 3 minutes to build the database in the preset window.

    the preset play preview is amazing , but the only downside is it swaps over to that preset with one click instead of double clicking so i already lost track of what i was doing with the new arp patch i had made.

    i still dont understand why nerve costs so much after all these years of basically being forgotten about

    i panicked the first 3 times it happened.

    activating it took about 5 tries because i kept getting the banned screen again

    for software this popular, your request will have literally no impact on when it gets released

    I'm curious, do request even have an impact anyway? It'd make sense if they didn't, really

    In the case of Serum2, not so much obviously, because those who are able to put it there already know it's out and that people want it, and they know it really well? :yes:

    why make a request for this, it will pop up anyway and people are aware of it.

    reminds me on people requesting Nexus 30 times before it was released ...

    Yes of course, but I mean it in a more general way, not specifically referring to Serum2
