SOMA LABORATORY LYRA-8 ORGANISMIC DRONE SYNTH BLACK

SOMA Laboratory's Lyra-8 Organismic Synthesizer 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, dismissing of hi-fi effects in favor of grungy, gnarly distortion and dual lo-fi delay, the Lyra-8 is an organic, expressive, complete instrument ideal for soundscapes, noise, FM experimentation, and beyond. The touch sensors activate each voice's envelope and respond to the amount of covered surface area, allowing for expressive playing. Two envelope modes allow for slow or fast response for customizing the instrument's dynamic behavior. Dispensing of filters, the "sharp" parameter allows independent waveshaping for each pair of voices. Complex FM routing controls allow for creation of dense, modulated sounds, further augmented by the internal vibrato generators. The instrument is rounded out by
