20 Minutes with the Lyra-8

Such a great instrument for jamming. I ended up in some really unexpected territory and had a lot of fun, thanks to a little inspiration from ‪@Dexba‬, whose channel is worth checking out :)

I came for a demo and get the best ambient EP heard in a while. Amazing

[@Dexba]

Nothing better than a wild Lyra running free, there is something so vibrant about the oscillators.
Love the color palette, and thank you so much for the s/o, I am glad I could provide some inspiration 🧡

[@Sound_ology]

Thanks! I loved the colors in your most recent video too

[@PlazaMoon]

stunning. reminds me why this is way beyond a mere synth.

[@shigful]

this is incredible, im legit in awe

[@S_e_a_n]

Amazing! This is definitely been moved up on the wishlist. Thank you for sharing!

[@TheNimasan]

to me, the greatest synth in the universe!

[@PSILOCYBINISTHEWAY]

this was such a nice 20 minutes. ty so much. keep on living, keep in making art, keep on exploring.

[@jeffswitzer1448]

Thanks for this. Love hearing unexpected harmonics wash in and out. Your patience really lets the Lyra participate in the conversation. Just received the diy kit from soma to build one of these. So excited!

[@masterdimmer9326]

How’s the build going?

[@c-shape]

I often use this machine in my work, from heavy drones to bittersweet underlays in ambient tracks, great instrument!

[@akin3772]

Is it really unpredictable as people say?

[@longlost_friend]

This is the video that made me do it. Ordered one. Really beautiful what you did

[@0Fdigital]

This is incredible. I had a Lyra-8 for a while, and finally have enough money to get one again; I think this video has pushed me over the edge to buy one soon :)

[@ModularLanding]

Beautiful! Thank you for creating and sharing this.

[@comurmusic]

Amazing, I copied your tuning and had a great time with the lyra:)

[@istvantoth7431]

veeeeery nice demonstration pal. well done. (your 200 quid worth of reverb sounds surprisingly nice too)

[@nataliavior]

More of this please! 🤞🏼

[@laplaceyeah]

Fantastic showcase.

[@sanjayvarma7842]

love the whole sequence from 8:00 onwards

[@Rookieathome]

Beautiful! ❤

[@MarcosFelippe-ju7qi]

thats beautiful man! great music!!

[@atdubya]

Fantastic sounds and jam, cheers

[@Andrewlvna]

The 10 min mark and 13 min are what im talkin bout...so good

[@ZenMountain]

Ok.

[@ploxcat8435]

This is amazing. You definitely nail the Lyra sound and treat every knob and switch like an instrument. Realize this was a while ago, but curious if you remember what tuning you used

[@Sound_ology]

I can’t remember what tuning it was! Haha

[@just_psy]

Hi i have a question. Whats your setup for Video recording? Thanks :)

[@aquarelasof]

Fantastic!

[@PodOfHeat]

So nice ❤

[@petercane6376]

Brilliant jam.
I really enjoyed that.
The more I listen to Lyra 8 the more I accept the sounds and am starting to really love them.
I pick mine up in three weeks time.
When you had that lfo going it sounded like a space ship landing. Really powerful.
Did you use any effects or was that dry Lyra8 single unattached?

[@Sound_ology]

Thanks! I added a tiny bit of reverb for ambience, but that’s it. It’s a glorious instrument and an incredible invention, you’re going to love it

[@mariorurouni]

Don't suppose you could put this jam for download no? :) freaking amazing

[@cluppi4491]

Freshhhhhhhhhhhhh!

[@teddyjones3652]

So good

[@andynelson6125]

You are really good at this 👍👍

[@essmunson]

damn it. I didn't want to want a new synth

[@pdautg]

Soma just released some new gizmo with touch sensitive control, but idk. This tune here on the Lyra 8 is

[@Hessencemusic]

amazing video! really inspiring! You have same Lyra-8 than me! Right now is a friend of mine who is enjoying it since I bought it while I was out.. I hope he give it back to me ! :D

[@billodonnell4322]

Nice.

[@bobbychaos]

👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

[@matthewtunnicliffe201]

This sounds really cool. Are there any additional effects added or is this just pure Lyra? And that green looks bloody good.

[@Sound_ology]

Thanks! I ran it through the TipTop ZVERB eurorack reverb. It adds a little ambience :)

[@moondancer1087]

what ad convertor do u use Bro, some audio interface maybe?

[@Sound_ology]

It’s an old Focusrite Clarett 8PreX

[@noewacreativemusic6794]

...nice

[@biggrime]

Any outside processing going on?

[@Sound_ology]

Just some reverb from a TipTop ZVERB module. I didn’t really add enough to be noticeable, just enough to put it in stereo

[@biggrime]

@@Sound_ology that's awesome

[@mauriciomandara5946]

Great performance w the Lyra ! I wished the L8 wasn’t that noisy… background white noise bleed

[@Sound_ology]

Thanks! I love the noise, it reminds me of rain

[@Dexba]

It should be noted the noise is 95% coming from the delay! At full wet and especially long time settings, it gets super noisy, and I also like it for that.
It is a very lively noise, with some nostalgic feeling, but turning the delay off will output a super clean sound :)

[@james_44]

I wish it was nosier. Glorious.

[@matthewbarker2205]

Try pushing it through a ‘heavy metal’ style distortion pedal for more noise - grinddrone 😂

[@TheYannickOne]

try playing the oscillators on very very low volume

[@JamesIsCommenting]

SO you sold the Lyra?

[@Sound_ology]

I did, crazily enough. I’m trying to focus on my keyboard skills and the Lyra kept distracting me. It’s so flowy and easy to use, I’d be meaning to practice piano and end up spacing out in a crumbling sonic utopia for an hour instead. Vlad Kreimer is a genius, I’ll probably buy another someday when I chill out and stop being so hardline about practicing, but that’s at least a couple years away
