Can you give me an example growl made by you, so I can hear what problem do you have.

Here's a bit I made this morning that's got a little growl in it. I've got three oscillators automating the WT-position for the movement, then an automated bandreject filter and some distortion and stuff inside massive. Then the whole thing goes through an automated EQ, multiband comp, a flanger and then some more distortion.
I think it's the core sound in massive that's just too, all over the place, but I can't really get it to sit right.
How many oscillators do you guys usually use? I'm thinking maybe I need to back and have just one or two oscillators and then really work on that until it sounds basically how I want it before fx. I'm not too sure how much processing I need to be doing, now there's a lot of difference between the dry and the wet sounds.
Edit: By the way guys, note that I posted one of my shitty growls so it would be more obvious, don't judge me

This growl would be awesome for glitch hop!
You get that weird timbre, because you have not enough harmonics and you start to distort it.
You can try to layer few synths which will obviously give you full and rich harmonic content.
And another tip, make sure your growl isn't too messy inb4 distorting... I mean, it's not talking like ASIUHGRBEUIYASSSARGHH, but more like, BLEARGHHHHHH. The distortion process will turn it to filthy OIUMASDFOIUEJAUUUUUEEE, but if you were to distort ASIUHGRBEUIYASSSARGHH one, you would get OIUMASDFOIUEJAUUUUUEEE that sounds like crap.
To get that not too messy growl, you can add low pass filter inb4 distortion, and then automate it as you are automating your other eqs/filters.
I think you know what I mean?
