    To make a long story short: The "most important sound in electronic music" is a filtered supersaw pluck, that also has control for the sustain to vary the length of the pluck.

    I can't be tied to a sound, a plugin or a genre.

    But somewhat music brethren, remember, from what you know, you must first learn the basics... But knowledge is not just "Knowing" , its the things you learn to get there.
    Worth more than a solution handed to you with a click, is the experience of discovery. And it need not be a Synth / Sound thats popular... because chasing the now, becomes the then...
