Soma Laboratory Documentary | Voltage Labs

"SOMA Laboratory creates instruments that don’t just make sounds - they start a dialogue. From the Lyra-8 to the Pulsar-23, Vlad Kreimer’s philosophy of 'romantic engineering' challenges convention, inviting chaos, unpredictability, and a deeper human connection with machines."

Firmware COSMOSPR1.61.smf — SOMA COSMOS

video upload by VG-Line

"Loaded with COSMOSPR1.61.smf – a rhythmic firmware variation where the DRIVE knob controls pitch instead of saturation. From normal speed down to half speed (–1 octave), with lo-fi artifacts and unexpected textures."

Alternating Measures #squarp #hermod #oberheim #novation #moog #korg #soma

"Some material sequenced on the Squarp Hermod+ using different measure lengths for the parts alternating how it sounds as the patterns loop. Sound sources include the Oberheim OB-6, Moog Mother 32, Novation Peak, and Korg Minilogue XD and Arp 2600m. All summed audio is then routed through the Soma Cosmos for some additional ambience."

Live Ambient :: Soma Cosmos :: Oberheim OB-X8 :: Roland JX-8P :: Linnstrument

video upload by Harry van Mierloo

"Layered ambient recording of the Oberheim OB-X8 playing together with the Roland JX-8P, through the wonderful Soma Cosmos.

The JX-8P is playing one of my favourite homemade pad-patches, and the OB-X8 is live played on the Linnstrument and tweaked in order to feed various sounds on the fly into the Cosmos. The filter of the Oberheim is controlled with my foot using an expression pedal. The result is a highly layered ambient track full of unpredictable – and sometimes hard to keep within control – harmonics.

Pepper & Salt from Strymon BigSky, enjoy!"

Minimal Ambient w/ norns shield & LYRA-8 | Cloudburst 2025-07-11 by atnr

video upload by atnr

"A minimal-ambient piece for norns shield and ‪@somasynths‬ LYRA-8, built from slowly evolving phrases and drones.

norns shield: Runs awake; phrases are altered live with a monome grid. The output goes through a ‪@ChaseBlissAudio‬ MOOD MK II for reverb, and near the end a micro-loop creates a dense cluster of tones.

LYRA-8: Plays drones and short phrases. Its signal is modulated with a BOSS CE-5 chorus, then processed by ‪@strymon‬ NIGHTSKY for filtering and reverb."

video upload by Harry van Mierloo

"Tweaking a live sequence from the new Superlative SB01 (Space Bee), with the Roland JX-8P singing along here and there and pepper & salt from the Boss DM-101 analog delay and Strymon BigSky reverb. Background noise is from the notoriously noisy JX-8P chorus, not the other devices..."

Superlative SB01 (Space Bee) :: Soma Cosmos :: Roland JX-8P :: Ambient live jam :: PART I

video upload by Harry van Mierloo

"This week I've received my Superlative SB01 (Space Bee)... after 6 years of patiently waiting! 😅 Super happy with it so far. Very beautiful to see and built like an American tank. Sound wise I cannot distinguish it from my SH-101 here. The SB01 actually sounds slightly better, probably due to the age of the components of my good old SH-101. And it's definitely a lot more solid and thinner than the original, due to the metal casing.

Instead of a full review or demonstrating all the classic 101 sounds that you find all over the internet already, I thought let's just practice a bit more with my ‪@somasynths‬ Cosmos and put the SB01 through it for some real-world sounds and live ambient, together with my good old JX-8P (always a great companion for 101 sounds).

All recorded in one take in Ableton, with a touch of salt from the ‪@strymon‬ BigSky.

Enjoy!"

Superlative SB01 (Space Bee) :: Soma Cosmos :: Roland JX-8P :: Ambient live jam :: PART II

video upload by Harry van Mierloo

"New day, new recording... With exactly the same setup as yesterday I've recorded another dark ambient jam, again with a primary role for the new Superlative SB01 (Space Bee), together with the Roland JX-8P through the wonderful ‪@somasynths‬ Cosmos.

This time I’ve managed to fix the video latency issue when exporting from Ableton, so video & audio should now be in sync. 😅

Enjoy!"

"In this video, we explore creative patching using the Divider module of the SOMA PULSAR-23 together with the SOMA PULSAR - 23 UTILITIES.

Divider outputs are routed into the Utilities’ touch sensor inputs, allowing us to trigger the Pulsar and modulate its parameters in rhythmically interesting ways.

Lofi Ambient Beats w/ OP-1 field, LYRA-8, LOSSY | Olive 2025-06-21 by atnr

video upload by atnr

"A track crafted with the ‪@somasynths‬ Lyra-8, ‪@teenageengineering‬ OP-1 field, and ‪@ChaseBlissAudio‬ LOSSY—an ambient beat that layers sounds into a lo-fi atmosphere.

OP-1 field: A master NITRO filter shapes the sound, and the output runs through LOSSY for an overall lo-fi vibe. The rhythm section is pre-recorded, with harmony and synth phrases overdubbed.

Lyra-8: Modulated tones are given a touch of the onboard delay, creating abstract textures.

Microphone (RØDE NT-4): Captures hand-bell hits, which receive reverb and delay in Ableton Live.

Post-production: Omnisphere is added in Ableton to layer a few extra sound effects."
