Flume Synth with Sylenth1 Several interviews revealed Lennar Digital's Sylenth1 as Flume's go-to synth and source for many of his popular lead sounds.

Square Wave 1: Oscillator A2 uses a pulse wave (square wave), with 3 voices and...

The Trap of Collecting Synths How many synth plugins (or hardware synths) do you currently own? Out of those, how many do you use on a regular basis?
