Square wave (play around with which WT you want), bitcrusher for some grit, touch of vibrato to get the wobbly sound (sounds like Savant may have this mapped to an envelope so the notes have more vibrato as they're sustained longer), dim. expander to enlarge the sound a bit, set voicing to mono, play with glide time to get the pitch bends - or program them manually. Imo half the reason that sounds good is just because of the notes/sequence played - if you're going to play straight 4x4 notes it'll sound shit.

My chiptune Massive setup is like a square wave detuned, with some chorus and expander... Maybe reverb/delay... Then I just play 3 notes very very very fast. Like sequence 3 or 4 notes very fast, that gives it that "chiptune" sound.

P.S: Fm8 has a preset called "chiptune" which is awesome!
