AMBIENT SOUNDSCAPES (Lyra 8 + Meris Mercury 7) | "Midnight Meditation"

[@ObKling]

I love that this thing has no midi in or out. It knows what it is. I felt the same kind of good vibes from the back-of-manual patch template for the Dreadbox synths - there's something charming about having to notate your "presets" with pen and paper.

[@seianj]

yeah its a truly unique experience

[@richardharrow1946]

and those notated presets never line up anyway in terms of sound the next time you bring it up

[@mercurial71]

I love it when the whales swim by to see what Roger Waters is doing at 04:48. Then they call their friends and have a chat about it. "I didn't know the Lyra-8 could do "On the Run"" says one of them. Then at 06:38 a Mongolian throat singer with a horse's head fiddle arrives to do some whalesong on his fiddle. The whales love it. "Tom Baker was the best Doctor Who" says the Mongolian. The whales agree, enthusiastically. That was a wonderful trip, thank you so much seianj!

Amazing interpretation! Thank you for taking your time and sharing your thoughts!

[@jonasjefferson2464]

@Deandre Parker i really appreciate your reply. I got to the site thru google and im waiting for the hacking stuff atm. I see it takes a while so I will get back to you later with my results.

[@jonasjefferson2464]

@Deandre Parker it worked and I now got access to my account again. Im so happy:D Thanks so much, you saved my ass :D

[@michaelkonomos]

You hooked me right in from the start. Absolutely sublime. Masterfully played.

[@seianj]

Wow, thank you! :)

[@carlosnieto8241]

Great. This is the kind of video that makes me want to buy the Lyra as soon as I can.

[@seianj]

it's a very very special instrument. i ended up selling it for i didn't use it too much anymore.

[@opaknack5997]

@@seianj a lot of people did so, too

[@morbhium8902]

What you are creating there is amazing! I love both the Lyra and the M7 and your playing is outstanding🖤🖤🖤

[@seianj]

Thanks a lot! :)

[@InvertedPopesMusic]

Just about to get the Lyra-8 sounds such an amazing instrument. Nicely done great sonic trip.

[@Raku777]

Thanks for sharing your creative process. It is a beautiful soundscape.

[@seianj]

Thank you so much!

[@SilentJayBird]

I haven't found enough music combining this style & level of intensity, so I'm really appreciating this. Very good.

[@seianj]

Thank you for listening ❤️

[@turtlemouth]

Very nice. I just got my Lyra-8. It's an incredible instrument.

[@seianj]

Great! Let me know how you find the Lyra. :)

[@DuendeSynth]

Great!! Well done. I like it very much how you use the dinamics and the underground rithm and the last tibetan choir monks Bravo!.

[@seianj]

Thank you for dropping by 😊

[@willswitchcraft]

Just a w e s o m e I'm so intrigued by the SOMA stuff.........nice to hear what you're pulling from it.....

[@seianj]

Thanks man! Yes Soma their instruments are beautifully unique

[@feldgrau_music]

Inspiring

[@seianj]

Thanks for dropping by :)

[@campvsmartivs6241]

Really nice. I discovered the Meris Mercury 7 last week and my first thought was the SOMA Lyra-8. Sounds good just as I expected. Nice work.

[@seianj]

Thanks 😊 yes they pair quiet nicely!

[@BenA718]

That was wonderful!

[@seianj]

thank you

[@slimtome]

massive fan man! i'm a recent lyra8 guy too and kinda obsessed, naturally. plays very well with syntrx 2 and magneto and starlab... rabbit hole inside rabbit holes. doing any film score? hit me up.

[@stonedapesociety5628]

Perfect gear!

[@seianj]

thank you

[@RandomNoise]

Very nice, and dark :-)

[@seianj]

Random Noise yes, coz i turned down the lights 👻

[@RandomNoise]

seianj haha, nice trick for better sound ;-)

[@Raumfalle]

Love it 👌🏻 and I need the plasma lamp 🩸

[@seianj]

A studio must have. :D

[@MynameisMusic]

It’s just perfect as it is 👌🏼

[@seianj]

thanks my friend! It was refreshing to be honest to jam with a minimal setup. less post production as well hahaha

[@MynameisMusic]

seianj that’s the good point ! :) It’s still great anyway !

[@djformalin]

Cool......could be 4 hour video ! Waiting for my orange box 🎼

[@seianj]

thank you! :) Enjoy the unique experience with the box. :)

[@larsenmb]

sick

[@seianj]

Thank you for listening in 😊

[@ThomasTR909]

more plz ;)

[@seianj]

Thank you! Unfortunately no more, no more lyra. 😸

[@SidJ8300]

Hi, very nice performance. Dark and atmospheric. Can the sounds off Lyra be recorded on a DAW directly ?

[@seianj]

Siddharth Jain thanks for watching! Sure, it has an audio output. :)

[@ratikanto]

ekdum

[@yb8080]

Great composition! Did you create that pulsing sound from the Lyra ? Thank you.

[@seianj]

Thank you! it's all lyra with one take. :)

[@soundsrhythm7332]

Sehr gut! ist auch diese rhythmische sequenz mit dem lyra produziert?

[@seianj]

Danke für den Besuch. :) Ja, es ist alles Lyra live aufgenommen, keine nachträgliche Aufnahmen hinzugefügt.

[@soundsrhythm7332]

@@seianj Unglaublich der Klangspektrum von dieser Metallbüchse. dazu ist es noch Mono, wenn ich es richtig verstanden habe 🤔 Ich musste mir nach deinem Video schliesslich doch die Lyra gönnen

[@seianj]

@@soundsrhythm7332 es ist ein einzigartiges Erlebnis die Lyra zu spielen. Ich habe meins schlussendlich wieder verkauft, da ich es nicht so oft einsetzten kann. Es war es aber wert es mal zu haben.

[@soundsrhythm7332]

@@seianj Hab die Lyra8 seit gestern bei mir im wohnzimmer angeschlossen um von den anderen Geräte nicht abgelenkt zu sein und so langsam verstehe ich wie die Bestie funktioniert. es ist sicher etwas einzigartiges und vom Soundspektrum sehr dominant. ich wünschte man könnte die Amp Envelopes etwas besser steuern und schade kann man es nicht mit Midi verbinden um die Töne Linear steuern zu können, aber ansonsten finde ich es bisher recht spannend. Darf ich fragen wo du es verkauft hast? Lg

[@seianj]

@@soundsrhythm7332 Kool gratuliere! Ja man muss versuchen los zu lassen die Lyra zu sehr zu kontrollieren, es ist ein bisschen ein Tanz. Die Lyra spielt dich, man reagiert was die Lyra macht. Ich habe es beim Audiosrouce in Lausanne gekauft. :) lg

[@raytheonorion]

yeah, great...could have been hours longer. Too nice.

[@seianj]

Thank you for listening ☺️

[@richgraff5957]

loved this! what kind of stand is that for your Lyra-8?

[@seianj]

Rich Graff thank you for watching. The stand is from cremacaffe design cremacaffe.shop

[@tendingtropic7778]

wow awesome! what makes the rytmhic variations here?

[@seianj]

Thank you! :) it's all Lyra.

[@lukesmodelrestore2069]

Du hast den lyra 8? Ach du scheisse ich will den auch umbedingt haben!!! Wenn ich das Geld hätte... 😧😧😣😣😣 Beste grüsse "M-Tric"

[@aleksandrivanov1958]

Are those sounds let through Lyra-8 initially recorded or produced straight from the machine?

[@seianj]

Aleksandr Ivanov hi thanks for watching. Yes, its going through the meris reverb and recorded live.

[@daneguitarist1]

anyone with a lyra is cool with me

Why isn't that lamp doing sound

[@seianj]

Maybe it does 🤫

[@bariloche1988]

Zzzzzzzzzzzz

[@seianj]

Good Night! Still Sleeping? :)

[@djformalin]

Not shure if this is a negative response...? Relaxing or boring for you ?

[@ozowizo37]

I dislike the state we ended up with regarding this surplus electronic hardware. Im an electronic engineer btw who builds synths, effects and stuff. It’s just all the sane and lame.

[@seianj]

Interesting statement, my I ask you to elaborate on that or give examples for someone who isn't an engineer? :)

[@DARKWEB03]

@@seianj bro fuck this dude. my lyra 8 is what OPENENED my mind to what sound is capable of.
