![]() ![]() That number is instead referring to, again, how big of a chunk is going to be crammed into each subtable. The number at the end of our FFT imports, the FFT 256, 512, that’s got nothing to do with the number of subtables. And keep in mind, no matter what kind of import you use, its always going to fill up all 256 subtables. Now right off the bat you’ll see we get a whole set of 256 subtables. So for example, let’s try the first, 256. And the higher the number, the larger chunks of audio are crammed into each subtable. So what FFT does is that rather than look at pitch, it is going to just break up our sound into individual chunks and then analyze the FFT information, so our harmonic series, our phase series, and that’s how it generates the subtables. Now these numbers at the end of the FFT determine how big the chunks are that are broken up into subtables. Now, this audio file, “serum,” me saying a word, it’s not really about pitch, it’s just a word. They like to look at the files pitch, analyze its pitch, and break it up into different ways according to that. ![]() Each of these options analyzes the file in a different way, and thus we get a different wave table result. So I’m intentionally over-pronunciating the “S”, the “R”, the “um”, the “M.” All right, so let’s drag it in onto our big wave editor, and we are given several import options. So, let’s import an audio file I created in which I say the word “serum.” Here’s what the audio file sounds like. Instead what Serum does is it analyzes the audio file, breaks it up into little subtables, and you essentially capture the essence of the sound, not an exact replica of it, and it’s a great source for creating interesting waveforms and wavetables. We’re not just bringing in an audio file and playing it back. And it’s really interesting, it’s not a sampler. In this video, I’m gonna show you how to import audio files and create wavetables from them. When you buy Syntorial, all of the packs and all of their videos are included. And like I said, the demo will have the first four or five videos from each of these packs. We also have lesson packs for Massive, Sylenth, and a couple others. Once you download Syntorial, just go into this drop-down, download lesson packs, and you’ll see the Serum Lesson Pack at the top, just click the download button. This has the first 22 Syntorial lessons but also the first four video from the Serum Lesson Pack. The Serum Lesson Pack adds 55 videos that show you how to take everything you learn in Syntorial and apply it to Serum, as well as covering all of the many additional features that Serum has to offer, and you can get the first four videos from the Serum Lesson Pack for free by going to, clicking try for free, and downloading the Syntorial Demo for Mac, PC, or iPad. It does this by combing video demonstrations with interactive challenges in which you program patches on a built-in soft synth. Syntorial is a synthesizer training app that teaches you how to program synth patches by ear. ![]() Now this video is actually an excerpt from the Serum Lesson Pack for Syntorial. In this video I’ll be showing you how to take an audio file in which I say the word “serum,” import it into Serum, and create a wavetable that says the word “serum.” So we’ll learn about the different import types and how to take what you get in an import and clean it up to create a nice wavetable. Get 4 more Serum videos for free via the Syntorial Demo. In this excerpt from the Serum Lesson Pack, you’ll learn about the different import types, and how to take what you get in an import and clean it up to create a nice wavetable. Watch Joe Hanley, the creator of Syntorial, as he demonstrates how to take an audio recording of the word “Serum”, import it into Serum, and create a wavetable that says the word “Serum”. ![]()
