Wavetable Synthesis - Detuning Duplicate Wavetables
Wavetable synthesis has become my favorite tool to use for sound design since you can get very unique characteristics out of a normal subtractive synthesis signal path. Being able to take a short clip and load it into a wavetable synth and then having the ability to modulate the smaller waveforms within the loaded sample create textures that are more organic sounding due to the imperfections of the oscillators. While Serum may be the first wavetable synth that comes to everyone's mind, Ableton's aptly names Wavetable plugin is my primary synth for almost everything. Through all the hours I've spent with this plugin I've come across some nice sounds that should be applicable to any wavetable synth.
