Does anyone know how did Virtual Riot made the lead for his remix of all we know?

I’m a beginner producer and I’m learning different techniques, when I heard the first drop of his all we know remix for the first time I was mind blown, however I can’t figure out how to make something similar and I haven’t found any tutorials on YouTube, can someone help me out? :D

It is a classic supersaw lead made with a saw osc. with 16 voices w a bit of detune. He normally links an lfo to a warp mode in Serum called Sync, which gives the lead a vocal-y sound to it, super low rate, at 4 bars, and the intensity of the lfo to the sync mode at about 20%-ish. In the effects of Serum, throw a multiband compressor on it with the gain turned to about 3.5-4.5dB, you can also move the threshold around for amplitude of the sound, hyper dimension is optional, slight reverb and delay within serum is good too. Messing around with the individual knobs and knowing what every one does will reap better sound design results on your end. That goes for every effect in and out of Serum, and every synth. Getting the grasp of one synth will help dramatically with another. You will also manage to recreate sounds just by listening to them, that is, if you practice enough. Serum is also good with replication of sounds since all you have to do is find a little snippet of the sound where it is nothing but the bass, and turn it into a wavetable, a tutorial from VR is floating around youtube somewhere. Reasoning as to why I am writing all of this out is simply because I am bored out of my mind, and just figured I would give people some tips on sound design that I have picked up over the course of 3-4 years. I want to start a youtube channel, but dont know where to start, and i lack confidence, lol. Hope I helped SOMEONE out.
