I told my lil' supersaw to drink a glass of milk everyday so he would grow of big.

Worked for me.
Do you sport with it? Because I showel a bottle of milk down my supersaw's throat every single day and it doesn't get bigger. It gets fatter, lazier, depressed about bass being more strong and punchy, but it just won't get bigger.

Get his fat ass to the gym then.

Problem is that gym is full of young guys. Growly basses, vocal chops, granular pads. They laugh at an old supersaw. Calling it names like "JP-f**k-thousand", "ScooterLead", "CascadaLover" ... it always cries and runs to it's firends for help. I mean yeah, it's cool it has some friends, but oldschool reese and donk bass? Dunno...

I often add a phaser with a 0.00Hz rate to give it a sort of 'wet' sound, and then add a chorus after that with a 35-45% dry/wet. That really twists the high end in a nice way.

Remember that often with synths you can over-compress the living daylights out of it, and it works. That's definitely true for supersaws - a 50% OTT can often really bring it out and make it sound good.

^^Going off this...

Adding a chorus can create more stereo width without even panning the sound itself. I like to have the dry/wet closer to 5-10% with the rate not too fast or slow, and then have the depth at a very high value like 80-90%! It gives the saw a lot of color without taking away from the original signal too much!
