The dream synthesizer did not seem to exist: a wavetable synthesizer with a truly high-quality sound, visual and creative workflow-oriented interface to make creating and altering sounds fun instead of tedious, and the ability to “go deep” when desired - to create / import / edit / morph wavetables, and manipulate these on playback in real-time.
Based on our record, Serum seems to be a lot more popular than Zynewave Podium. While we know about 30 links to Serum, we've tracked only 1 mention of Zynewave Podium. We are tracking product recommendations and mentions on various public social media platforms and blogs. They can help you identify which product is more popular and what people think of it.
What matters though is choosing a good synthesizer. I personally use Serum (~190$) for most things, since it's easy to use and has a big community with a lot of free and paid presets. Source: 10 months ago
One of the problems I am currently facing is having a large lookup table. I want to have a large set of predefined sound waves that can be manipulated like programs such as Serum. Is this still possible with an MC instead of an MCU? (Calculating the waves in real-time instead of using a lookup table might be too computationally intensive for most budget options).

You'll have to find some other alternative for your Text-to-speech needs. Serum has a basic speech synth, Vital uses Amazon's TTS solution, and you'll find plenty more with a quick google search. Source: about 1 year ago
You can also download Vital for wavetable emulation. https://www.discodsp.com/obxd/ You can also buy Serum https://xferrecords.com/products/serum for I think $190 or get it off Splilce for $10 a month until you pay it off. Source: about 1 year ago
Then all the synths are serum, in previous projects I have used magical 8 bit and tb_peach. Source: about 1 year ago
They have a free version called "Zynewave Podium Free" https://zynewave.com/podium-free/. Source: almost 2 years ago
