Start With Free Serum Presets
The best way to hear what production-ready Serum presets sound like is to try them. Our free starter pack contains 5 bass presets covering different styles so you can load them up, play with the macros, and hear the difference that professional sound design makes.
What is in the Pack
The free taster pack includes 5 Serum presets covering a range of bass music styles:
- Sub bass – A clean, focused sub bass preset with controlled dynamics and consistent low-end weight
- Reese bass – A classic detuned saw wave Reese with filter modulation and macro controls for quick customisation
- Mid-range bass – A textured mid-range patch with distortion and modulation, designed to sit above a sub layer
- Bass stab – A punchy, short bass hit for rhythmic patterns and drops
- Atmospheric bass – A deeper, more atmospheric bass patch with evolving character
Each preset includes mapped macro controls so you can adjust the sound quickly without diving into the synthesis parameters.
What You Need
- Xfer Serum (version 1.2 or later)
- Any DAW that supports VST, AU, or AAX plugins

How to Use the Presets
These presets are designed as starting points. Load them into Serum, play some notes, and start experimenting:
- Adjust the macros – Each preset has 4 macro controls mapped to the most useful parameters. Turn them and listen to how the sound changes
- Change the octave – Try playing the presets at different octaves to find where they sit best in your track
- Layer them – Use the sub bass preset as a foundation and layer the mid-range or Reese preset on top
- Process further – Add your own effects, EQ, and compression to shape the sound for your mix
