About these wavetables

FX sounds are about movement and surprise rather than pitch. These tables jump, crackle or sweep through very different frames. In Serum or Vital, automate the wavetable position over a bar or two for risers and downlifters, add a pitch envelope for impacts, and try a fast LFO on the position for glitchy stutters. Many of them also work as a short layer on top of a drum hit.
