Preordered (and I've barely taken my Elz-1 Play and Lofi12 XT out their boxes yet). Currently still in love with the Liven Mega Synthesis and I will not put it away until I've filled all 128 pattern slots with something more than half decent (only 32 patterns to go).
Lofi12 XT and SmplTrek are powerful and great for connecting a guitar to. I like the features of the ELZ_1 Play, but I struggle to get the levels right and not distort with most of the big pads or the reverb effects. I feel like there just isn't enough range in its internal processing to do what I want.
This sounds beautiful! I'd love to see Dr Yu Endo give this the same treatment the Lo-Fi 12 got and bring out a fuller-featured model. This has huge potential.
This is awesome! I am working on my own little game environment and love these sounds as ambient background music. I’m going to have to work towards picking one of these up!
I've said it 1,000 times. I wish y'all would put the amazing instruments in better cases. I loved the LoFi 12 but the plastic felt bad and so did the keys.
I like the look of your products. Very distinctive. Interesting the colour choices you make depending on the unit. This looks really cool. I'd like to see a guitar and drums one. Something that strums with lots of drumming and fills like the Logic Drummer. Great for writing a song.
Okay, I am not into ambient, but I admit you guys know marketing - lots of people would love this product. Wish I could get one of your other synths...
I'd love to hear him say "A long time ago, in a Heavy Metal Galaxy far, far away... The spirit of heavy metal, the Fox God, chose three newly reborn metal spirits.. and summoned them, to the Metalverse.. where an unknown future awaits. The spirit of heavy metal, traversed across the world. Rose above language barriers. Went beyond generations. And created countless legends. Life and death. Beginnings and endings. In this infinite loop, the spirit goes on living. But for BABYMETAL.. transcending oneself is the only path left. Are you ready to HEADBANG? Now is the time for the Metalverse. With BABYMETAL!" (just a joke as he sounds a lot like the male voice BABYMETAL use to introduce their concerts 🦊)
Nice.. love it. Q: What can I use IN-Input for? Is it primarily to record a sample? Or can I run external sound over it and combine it with the internal layers?
I understand that you can add your own samples for the noise source, does that overwrite the existing or does it take away from the main sample memory? Also, how many custom noise slots can you place? If you put tonal samples in the noise slots can you change the pitch and if so it it just the encoder or by some other method?
It has 8 memory slots for noise samples, and adding new samples will overwrite the existing ones. The pitch of the noise can be adjusted using the PITCH knob. Thanks,
The tune all function changes the pitch of all layers (±1 octave in 20-cent steps, adjustable in 1-cent step). Sequence can be set the transpose for each layer. Thanks.
Thank you for your purchase. The Ambient Ø is a pre-order item, so your shipment will be in 4th batch from September 5. Thank you for your understanding.
Sorry but at this point Sonicware format is becoming too repetitive and on the edge of ridiculous. Just add all the sounds to the board and sell one big synth. This now feels like Sonicware is selling the same product in different chapters or "episodes" of functionalities. Might as well go and design a big fat ass keyboard already with everything in it.
It's not complete, it's just dry sound behaving like something we found in the Sound and Loop and I don't, I can't spend more money for something I agree with you do it's not just my feeling. This sound is Ambient but it's not about Ambient...to my knowledge Ambient went to far to unknown and unpredictable journey with sound that is more like real physical Event. No plastic or digital signature.
how to make ambient music: sample a fart, run it through 10 effects pedals, in stereo, including some type of pitch shifter. You're now making ambient, the laziest of all forms of music. Congratulations!
Truly an honor to provide narration to the finest electronic instruments. Sonicware are the true innovators
sonicware kinda trash budget toys tbh......
Is that your voice?
@@stylinghead Yes :)
@@JakeG IT IS SOUNDING GOOD
I imideatly noticed the voice over. Nice.
Stop making all of these so awesome. I've got five now! HELP!!
Such a well designed ecosystem for both beginners and veterans
Remember the 80s? We had liquid crystal displays back then!
i dont normally do ambient type stuff, but at how cheap this synth was, i had to get it. cant wait till it ships!
The epic narration is the only time I’ve ever heard this kind of demo.

They got the movie trailer voiceover guy to do this?? Sonicware serious now.
Sonicware is so crazy good! No promo because they know they are the gameplayers

Scale mode would make a killer combo
YES... it surpirses me that itS not inkluded !
I didn't know I need it until now.. ;)
Wait... A layerable multi-timbral Liven synth??? Holy WOW!
In combination with my JP8000 and my AN1x this could be a great device for early 2000 melodic trance vibes in 2024
Cool ....Liking this New Machine!!
Man, Sonicware is on fire 🔥
Fan since the ELZ-1
“Doody cycle” made me giggle 😊
Doodie,
you beat me to it, as it were
Amazing!!! Im in luv with this machine 😍😍😍👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
"...alters the atmosphere- making it interesting..." Haha- very well put. Lovely synth from a neato company.
Nice 👍 and the teenage engineering type space 🚀 promotion video was ace .
Looks and sounds very interesting. Love the concept! ❤
This is awesome! I am working on my own little game environment and love these sounds as ambient background music. I’m going to have to work towards picking one of these up!
Incredible.
I grabbed the pre order!! I hope i get the first wave!!
I've said it 1,000 times. I wish y'all would put the amazing instruments in better cases. I loved the LoFi 12 but the plastic felt bad and so did the keys.
Uhhh, this sounds very nice
This is so exciting! I might buy one right now ❤
Little VANGELIS machine... HOLY GUACAMOLE.
😮😮😮😮😮😮
God bless Vangelis...

Just when I thought I had all the gear I need...
Thank you for the molecules!
Damn…ok! Think they sold me on one now
Love it!
Wonderful
Yeah, sound great, nice work🖤! Greetings 🖖👽
I can’t wait to get this one !!
I think it took maybe 30 seconds between watching the announcement video and taking out my credit card for a pre-order.
So thanks, I guess.
4:33 that's as close to the sound of an Infinite Improbability Drive as it gets.
I'd love to hear him say "A long time ago, in a Heavy Metal Galaxy far, far away...

Sounds remarkable. Will it work with a Ripcord USB to 9V DC power cable? Thanks
nice!
Nice.. love it. Q: What can I use IN-Input for? Is it primarily to record a sample? Or can I run external sound over it and combine it with the internal layers?
The Noise layer processes 8-second stereo sampling loops with noise blending and pitch modulation.
You can mix the Line-in audio with the reverb.
@@SONICWAREonly with reverb or other effects built on? Does Ambient Zero can be treated also as a FX module for line signal?
@@szymonsojka9880 You can't use this as a FX module, it is different from Texture Lab | granular synthesizer and effector.
I understand that you can add your own samples for the noise source, does that overwrite the existing or does it take away from the main sample memory? Also, how many custom noise slots can you place? If you put tonal samples in the noise slots can you change the pitch and if so it it just the encoder or by some other method?

Man, the 30th needs to hurry up lol ❤
Does it have a memory for presets saving?
Yes, you can save up to 128 Sound Pattern Palettes.
@@SONICWARE patterns with patches/presets?
@@NatLifeSounds Yes, a single pattern with patches of the 4 layers.
@@SONICWARE amazing! Interesting to try this thing for external sound design
Nice idea and concept… but the overall sound (of this demo) is a bit too harsh and thin to my taste.
can you transpose everything all at once though?
The tune all function changes the pitch of all layers (±1 octave in 20-cent steps, adjustable in 1-cent step). Sequence can be set the transpose for each layer. Thanks.
This plus Texture Lab and I might shelve my DAW for a while.. I've paid more for upgrades than this unit cost... cries...
what are the differences with the texture lab?
Great and nice. But....ambient music also means arpeggios and that. Seems to be we'll need an Ambient 1.
Ambient Ø can do arpeggios. It has both a sequencer and an arpeggiator for each layer.
@@SONICWARE Ah now that is good news ! Thank you !
This is either gonna end up being a beloved treasure or a total flop, but it sure is appealing either way
Ordered last night email says preparing to ship order but web site says September I hope it's built and getting shipped tomorrow 😅
Thank you for your purchase. The Ambient Ø is a pre-order item, so your shipment will be in 4th batch from September 5. Thank you for your understanding.
@@SONICWARE no worries thanks for the reply looking forward to this beast keep up the good work 😀
When will these be with the UK retailers?
How about using any free plugin with Valhalla free fix
Take my money.....again 😅
What's this device's correct name? Is it "Ambient oh?" or "Ambient zero?" or "Ambient Nought?"
Zero!
can you use custom wavetables via MIDI?
No, sorry.
I recognize that AI narrator voice from Tick Tock propaganda videos 😂

That screen would look outdated 30 years ago.
No patching = No future....
thats really weird VST
I just can't stand the AI voice over
Not AI, it's a professional narrator.
It sounds like a real person. He sounds a bit like the movie preview voice guy. ... "In a world ... "
@@SONICWARE Nice, thanks for clarifying
I'm a real person, I promise :)
I think it's hilarious.
