Hey fam, I found that there is a great "category" of serum presets called "Analog/Analogue"!
However, when I try to google something similar to those presets I am always stuck, cuz only "Retro/Synthwave/etc.etc.etc." presets are on the market. That I found not even close to the original synths.

Here is the example of the serum bank I found crazy for all my production purposes (mostly EDM/Hip-Hop/Pop):
NOIRE - Serum & Vital Analog Presets from monosound. - link

Maybe someone here knows Similar presets?
Thanks in advance!

Excellent pack mate, thank you! I didn't know about this one you quoted. Very nice for Indie Dance, Melodic Techno & Electronica.

Check out Tonepusher Serum packs, they are the only ones that come to mind when it comes to analogu-ish Serum packs. Unfortunately Serum is underrated by the top sound designers who tend to prefer Diva etc., so I barely use it in my productions as it sounds mainly digital.

But we should certainly try to list those here, let's see what the others say.

 

Diva is great... but CPU usage :/
I love to produce, not to watch my tracks freezing xD

 

I feel you man, I love Diva but hate it for this stupid CPU usage... Even with my M1 it's better but since Ableton 11.1 full native is still not released I still feel at 20% of my CPU capacity when using it.

On the contrary Serum is amazing for that, it barely uses 3% of my CPU. But I haven't spent enough time searching/downloading/installing quality analog Serum banks, so thanks for posting this xD I've meant to do this at some point.

 

Remember that the thread is about Serum presets, not about Diva.

Tonepusher's presets for Serum are good and cheap, you even have the possibility to try them thanks to sister site, so try and buy the ones you like.
Sound design is a time consuming task and these guys deserve the price they ask for their presets.

 

GOGOi Serum presets is another name that comes to mind, check it out.

 

Another option: Use wavetables from analog synths and create your own presets.
Building good wavetables is much more work than adding envelopes and filters

@Olymoon
Apologies for the wrong link, no idea why I didn't realize that the pack I linked to was not Serum

 

Oh, thanks, I'll def check them all!

 

Although Serum wouldn't be my first choice when it comes to analog, there are several interesting sound designers, like: 7Skies, Prime Loops, Defrock, Bellatrix, GOGoi (as mentioned above), Paul Sirrell, PML, Neon Wave, Savage Sounds, Tonepusher, Vandalism, Aubit, just to name a few.

[edit] For more analog sound i'd consider Softube, U-he, Cherry Audio, TAL

 

No problem

 

Does anyone know what the highest audio quality of wavetables is, that can be import into Serum without conversion.

 

Yeap, but I wanna get a "warmth/fat" sounds out of Serum, not from Softube,U-he. They are too much CPU Heavy.
Will check the websites of the guys you listed, thank you!

 

All the presets & samples that the guys from monosounds provide is super hot.
Check GOGOi presets, they are not so great as monosounds presets IMO, but could work great for the styles you pointed!
