Description
The Metro Boomin preset pack by The Highest Producers delivers 12 Sytrus presets inspired by one of hip-hop's most influential producers. Built for FL Studio's native Sytrus synthesizer, these presets capture the dark, atmospheric sound that defined chart-topping tracks like "Father Stretch My Hands" and "Low Life."
The collection spans leads, synths, pads, keys, and effects, all crafted to produce the signature Metro Boomin aesthetic. Standout patches include Strange Music Box, a haunting melodic texture perfect for eerie trap intros, and Power Lead, a bold front-of-mix sound designed for dominant melodies.
Several presets feature built-in slide effects that replicate the gliding melodic style Metro is known for. Sliding Shredder String and Sliding Patna Dem Lead add tension and movement, while Sliding Bell Arp brings a mystical quality to arpeggio patterns.
The pack also includes atmospheric elements like the Sliding Atmosphere Synth for dense backdrops and Low Organ Pad for deep, resonant foundations. Electric Keys rounds out the set with a versatile keyboard sound that works across genres.
Because these presets load directly into Sytrus with no third-party dependencies, any FL Studio user can start using them immediately. The .FST format ensures native compatibility with all modern versions of FL Studio.

Tips
- Layering Leads and Pads: Combine the Power Lead with the Low Organ Pad to create a full, rich sound. This technique can add depth and complexity to your melodies, making them stand out in the mix.
- Creating Tension with Sliding Presets: Use the Sliding Shredder String and Sliding Patna Dem Lead in your build-ups to create tension. The sliding effect can make transitions more dramatic and engaging.
- Atmospheric Backgrounds: Incorporate the Sliding Atmosphere Synth and Strange Music Box to build an eerie, atmospheric background. These presets are perfect for adding a dark, moody vibe to your tracks.
- Rhythmic Complexity with Arpeggiators: Utilize the Strange Arp and Sliding Bell Arp to add rhythmic complexity to your compositions. These arpeggiators can fill in the gaps and provide a continuous, evolving melodic line.
- Dynamic Orchestration: Use the Orch Slide and Sliding Violins to add a touch of classical instrumentation with modern sliding effects. These presets work well for creating dynamic, cinematic sections in your music.
