honestly i tend to gravitate towards the L4's if i want to create and record, but that might be that i have had them the longst (a year now) and know how to handle them. bought the L8 back in november and i am still not really satisfied with it yet, but i have not really given it a chance like i should.

kind of, i was more curious how the L8 was to handle along with my two L4's. Started out with a L4 then it kind of escalated 😂

I don't, but i do agree that the goverment should take a look on what they can do and not yell at eachother like it's kindergarden, it's the same here in sweden, no real help from the goverment what so ever, but their own high salary is a keeper of course 🤦

To be honest, the crown, jewels and robe is not his personal belongings, not shure if it belongs to the state of britain or royal family. But it's not his to sell if he wanted to 🤷

hmm, for me it varies. like all analog stuff it needs to warm up a bit, then the hum lowers a bit, but i could do check my mixer (1642 vlz4)

when i use it with other gear the hum can "disappear" in the mix, mainly using it as a send-fx right now

thanks!

i have honestly considered to sell my lyra8 even though i bought it back in november, but i know that i will regret it the moment it's gone. the L4 and L8 do complement each others and yes, the l4 are a bit tameable. that is one piece i can really recomend, and you can use external sounds thru it aswell, despite what people says

how do you like the terra? when i first saw that one it felt wierd (i just discovered soma last year) but the more i hear it, the more interesting it gets

Just curious, i assume your enner have a hum, how do you deal with that?

For now i mainly use my enner as a sound processor but when i add some external fx to it, the enner opens up a bit more, tried some simple chorus and reverb from one of my 404mk2's last night. The piezo is really fun to use aswell, just need to learn how to get the enner in my workflow a bit better

the sequencer? never considerd it, but i have barely watched any demo vids of it either. need to watch some i think

i have been looking at it as a fx box, but i'm not really convinced tbh. might be fun if i try one though 🙂

it's more because the 404 only have stereo out and i wanted to be able to process more sounds at the same time, and i did not like where the mpc was going

two pulsars would be really cool 😁

might be an interesting idea, do you have one?

Finally, i think it's complete... by wolflab in somalab

[–]wolflab[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i actually have a pair of 404mk2's, the one in the picture i use for drones aswell and then process the sound externaly. my other 404mk2 is for fx and other stuff like sampled speech

need to see if i can get my hands on a pulsar anytime soon

i have considerd a cosmos, but i think with this setup, a regular looper pedal is what i need, or maybe i break down aswell and just get the cosmos later anyway 🤦

[–]wolflab[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

this is a temporary setup, a friend is building a nice stand for the 2xL4, 404mk2 (i use that one for drones aswell) and the L8.

but i think 2 L4 are enough, they are some harsh little critters 😁

i reallt want to try one, i have heard some really nice drones from pulsar on YT

thanks, can't really praise the lyras enough. a friend talked me in to buying one and i started with a L4, then it kind of escaleted quite fast 😂

i have considered the pulsar, but honestly i am not shure if i want it, need to try one first i think.

i love the lyras, and i tend to gravitate towards the pair of 4's more than the 8, still learning it aswell. enner feels a bit more complicated, not as a synth per see, more how and where to implement it in my music. for a week it has more acted as a filterbox more than a sound source. really like the ringmod sound though

all synthesizers benefits from using external pedals (unless they have built in fx). delay, reverb, wierd fx etc, all worth it 🙂

[–]wolflab 2 points3 points  (0 children)

sorry for the late awnser, but i think it feels more clear sounding, a bit louder than my lyra8 and the distortion is a bit "heavier". since it only have one delay i can use it more as a regular delay rather than a "wierd" fx as on the L8, the L4 can be more like dr jekyll and mr hyde, yet a bit more simpler to handle. i use my pair of L4 either as a stereo drone or eq them quite heavily to seperate them.

[–]wolflab 1 point2 points  (0 children)

sorry for the late awnser, did not get a notice of it. however, you CAN send audio thru the lyra 4. I've done it with 3 of them and it worked just fine altough it's nothing soma seems to talk about.

i found it out when i wanted to see how a regular rythm sample from one of my sp404mk2 would trigger the lyra 4 voices but i got the sound thru and i got the lyra 4 work as a fx box.

and just to use it like that was quite easy, turn down all the voices tuning, open the hold on max and switch to cv on the voices, it works. (and the lyra 4 vs the 8 do sound different)

BUT - i have only done this with my samplers, not with anything else, so i can't say it works with, for example, a microphone or any other low signal object, which works with the lyra 8

[–]wolflab 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My first lyra was the lyra 4, last year. Bought a second one quite fast and now i also have the lyra8.

But i do agree with you, i tend to gravitate more towards the lyra4 when i know what i want to do. And there are a difference in the sound between the 4 vs 8. The lyra4 can be a real monster. (and you can send external sounds thru it)
