Hi all!
So I'm watching a lot of EDM / electronic music tutorials, and everybody are using serum.
I installed the demo and I can't modify any of the parameters, filters, distortion, reverbs, nothing works.
Anyone know what should do to make it work?
I loaded the default presets and they're awesome, but I want to try all the filters and stuff.
Btw, any shortcut betveen moving trough presets?
It's a bit frustrating to go to the window, ocr, click, select, play something, ocr, select again and again, you know :D.
All from me, oh man too many questions today :D.

In Reaper you could try to bypass the plugin GUI by using Osaras builtin parameter window, just press p on the desired track. But I'm supposing you have tried that already. Concluding from the product description it looks like this thing is way more than just a plugin. I'm afraid most of the functions won't be accessible in any way.

I can normaly select all the filters / distortion types from the p menu, the problem is that they're not doing anything from the actual sound. I think that I need to asign the filter / things to the desired oscilators, and that's not possible from the p menu, I think...

Update>
I managed to get filters / distortion / reverb / delay working... The enable options are under 48 mod parametters, so they were a bit hidden...

Update >
I wrote a small list about the current functions...
Accessible :
Preset selection : (ocr and clicking on the init patch, then a tree structure with the preset and preset folders will pop up...)
Note: You have to select the preset before you'll hear it, you can't even read the description of the preset when you're on the tree menu...
Turning oscillators on and off...
Unison / detune / finetune / volume / all that osc stuff
Asigning filters to each of the oscillators
Filter selectiom/ all the params according to it
phaser / distortion / flangers, enable / disable and all the parameters for each of the function
Portamento, not tested completelly...
-----
inaccessible :
Wave table interaction / creation / manipulation / modding / using / moving trough / simply everything...
Wave selection : I hope I just missed the parameter, but I can't find it anywhere...
LFOS / envelopes / macros, well, that's sad...
Automations inside the synth
FM modulation
And bunch of other stuff what I forgot to write here... :D
