🎹 It's Lyra-8 Drone time! Today I cover my personal techniques for making this "Organismic" synthesizer scream and roar. Strap in and bring a subwoofer!00:0

The art of knowing is knowing what to ignore. From the demo video, it sounds somewhat close to a Lyra-8 in the first example, and nothing much like it in the other examples. But maybe still good at making noise, and worth a try. When I had a Lyra-8, my overall feeling was it wasn't much of a "synthesizer" given its limited sonic possibilities

Just got myself a Lyra after 3 years of drooling over it, and I find the machine to be a wonderful box of hectic and abhorrent sounds. I'm planning on using this machine in a project mixing it with acoustic instruments and electronics. Mainly dark rhythmic drones as a base and playing very simple melodies on the 6 to 4 remaining voices.

Oscillators are grouped into four groups of two (1/2, 3/4, 5/6, 7/8) and then sub-grouped into two main sections (1/2/3/4, and 5/6/7/8). The voices do not work completely independently as with traditional subtractive synthesis, but collectively within these group and subgroup categories, primarily when it comes to effects processing.

Good post, but also one massive advantage of the Lyra is that it has an extremely simple workflow, and a hardware control for every function. The manual is only a couple of pages and you don't even need to read it. It's like an anti-Elektron machine, in that it's really easy to use.

Another key feature is the ability to record my loops with complete silence first, and then overdub into the empty tracks with a mixer to layer sound in and end up with seamless drones. With the Aeros, the Lyra-8 goes from a mono synth with no clean and clear way to control the attack of any of its oscillators, to a fully stereo, smoothly

Eldar Tagi · 10/25/23. In the expansive landscape of musical expression, drone-based music stands out as a unique realm that captures the imagination and shifts the perception of time and space unlike anything else. More than merely a genre, it exists as a sonic universe deeply rooted in ancient traditions, while continually evolving alongside

It's great for creating rich, evolving drones and its touch sensors make it a highly playable device for live performance. If you own Eurorack gear, the LYRA-8 FX can give you access to the effects section of the LYRA-8 as a module. The self-modulating dual delays can achieve astounding and unusual results.

Description / Lyra-8. Welcome to the world of sound of LYRA-8, the unique organismic analogue synthesizer designed by Vlad Kreimer. "Organismic" means that LYRA uses some principles that lie in the base of living organisms. The way how LYRA's modules interacting between each other and the behaviour of the instrument resembles a live

Described as an 'organismic synthesizer', the Lyra-8 didn't merely produce wailing sirens, it excelled at screams, drones and a great many flavours of crunchy dissonance.

The Lyra-8 is a powerful self-contained synth in a rugged metal housing, perfect for drones, noise, alternate tunings, and all manner of sonic experimentation. Trading a traditional keyboard for metal touch sensors and a re-tunable oscillator for each key, and dismissing hi-fi effects in favor of grungy, gnarly distortion and dual lo-fi delay

The Lyra-8 is the startrek of boldly sound what no one has done before. Okay that was the intro. Now the details: Operation: especially the rather unpredictable Mod knobs are very sensitive to the minutest turn depending on the other knobs. Even opening one Osc with Mod Osc another is more than enough to drone longer mindights than the usual
