From Skrillex - Kill Everybody. The chords first heard at 1:25. I've tried using detuned saws in Massive, but my attempts always come out a bit weak and cheesy-sounding to my ears. Any help?

As far as I know it is saws layered with a preset from tone2 gladiator 2 called screamer
Skrillex used a lot of gladiator presets in his early work

Any ideas on how I can go about best replicating that in say massive or sylenth? I don't have gladiator

Well with massive just use saws -12, 0 and +12 and add a lot of unison and then some pitch detuning, maybe shorten the decay on the envelope. And his midi is probably layered over 2 or 3 octaves! Personally when i'm going for something like this I would just use a preset of a plug in and edit it slightly, jpk6 has some great saws, don't really use sylent but there must be some in there.
I would look into getting gladiator though its a great synth
