FM like LabRat with Serum // 50 Shades of FM Ep54 #shorts

Hello internet, For this special LabRat episode, I was determined on revealing the secrets of his signature FM sound in Serum. To achieve this, I managed to acquire from him personally, one of his favorite FM patches and here's what I learned.

LabRat has a weird and twisted sound design philosophy that I've never seen before, blending Serum's modules and modulating them in a subtle yet highly effective way, resulting in his distinct groovy sound.

Starting with the wavetable, select the "FM Freak" from Serum's stock wavetable folder. Bend it using Serum's oscillator warp mode "Bend-" and set the WT Position knob to its last clockwise value, this should give us a solid starting point.
Filtering wise, it's a pretty straight forward 18 db/oct highpass filter with a healthy dose of resonance and drive.

Now it's time to dive into the effects section and get that LabRat sound.
First off, we'll introduce a slight touch of phasing with a slow modulated phaser. Follow it with a multiband compressor to get the OTT touch.

But we're still far from the funky LabRat sound, to get there we need to:
- Apply ring modulation using Serum's FX filter, modulating its cutoff slightly with a Tri LFO and its mix with a pseudo trance gate LFO, both running at a rate of 4 bars.
- Introduce a downsampling distortion and modulate its drive slightly with a Tri LFO running at 8 bars.

Now all we need to do is to play the patch using a random arpeggio, play with the filter cutoff and add some delay to it.
