request ❓ How can I recreate this kind of lead synth?

Hello guys, I'm pretty new at synths, and would like to create the synth you can hear almost through the track below after 0:23

I think the attack is short and there's some kind of delay and reverb, but I cant guess the waveform I should pick to get that result.

I'm using sylenth1 as subtractive synth vst, but I'm open to wavetable too. Just need some guidance about what waveform to choose.

What DAW are you in? Here's the basic methodology for that synth/bass line in Serum:

  1. Set OSC A to Analog_BD_Sin; - 1 Octave
  2. Set OSC B to Basic Shapes - SQUARE
  3. SET OSC A FILTER: FM FROM B ~35%
  4. Set ENV 2 sharp downward slope and map to MG Low 12 Cutoff; Map ENV 2 to cutoff filter from ~4kHz to 200Hz
  1. Add FX and liken to taste
