1. LIVEN Ambient Ø (Official PV)
2. How to make ambient music with LIVEN Ambient Ø
3. Layering tones with LIVEN Ambient Ø



Press release follows:

Soundscape Synthesizer LIVEN Ambient Ø Immersive Ambient Generator

4 layers of tone and texture̶Drone, Pad, Atmos, and Noise̶merge to generate resonance and transformation.

Blendwave Modulation Synthesis

Newly developed synth-engine with 6 structures, designed to create undulating and fluctuating tones.

Noise and Space

The Noise layer processes 8-second stereo sampling loops with noise blending and pitch modulation.

Extensive Effects Section

9 types of lush Reverb with shimmer, plus 6 types of effects including Tape Delay and Master Chorus.

Sequencer on Each Layer

Records performances, notes probabilities, and evolving tonal changes.

Immersive Ambient Generator
Ambient Ø (zero) is incredibly easy to use. Start by playing a tone from one layer using the note hold function. While listening closely, simply tweak the knobs to modify the tone and add other layers to shape a pleasing sound.

Blendwave Modulation Synthesis
We conducted extensive research into creating undulating and fluctuating tones for Ambient Ø, resulting in the development of a new wavetable-based synthesis.
Blendwave Modulation Synthesis combines 6 unique structures with 32 WAVEs featuring complex harmonic transitions, making it easy to create powerful low drones, lush pads, and transparent pizzicatos, perfect for ambient music.

4 knobs / 8 parameters offer a wide range of tone creation.

A WAVE contains 128 harmonic tables, allowing for diverse tonal changes such as moving from basic waveforms to complex harmonics. The WAVE is
represented by a yin-yang icon, with the yin representing moves in the reverse direction through the tables during modulation.

6 Structures
Each structure has a different number of oscillators and modulation circuits. ATMOS 1 applies ring modulation, while ATMOS 2 applies FM modulation.

Noise and Space
The Noise layer includes 8 specially selected nature sounds, offering noise blending, pitch adjustment and modulation to infuse unique spatial characteristics.
Additionally, it allows for up to 8 seconds of stereo sampling from the line input, letting you create personalized textures.

Extensive Effects Section
Ambient Ø is equipped with 9 types of lush reverb, each offering unique spatial dimensions and brightness settings. You can individually adjust the reverb send and shimmer send (for layering octaves) for each layer.

In addition to the reverb, the Ambient Ø offers
an effect unit with Tape Delay, Reverse Delay, and 4 master effects; Overdrive, Bit/Rate Crush, Tilt EQ, and Stereo Chorus.

Sequencer on Each Layer
You can not only layer the four tones, but each layer also includes a sequencer that allows you to record keyboard performances.
Furthermore, you can record changes in numerous parameters, including level, pan, and filter movement over time.


16 Ambient Sound Pattern Palettes, crafted by expert sound designers
No need to start from scratch. Choose a palette that fits your mood, start playing tones, tweak the knobs, and layer them following your heart. Thus, your inner thoughts and emotions will be crafted into sound.

Play On The Go: Portable, Built-in speaker, and Battery-powered
Leave your usual workspace and try using Ambient Ø in your living room or outdoors. As its evolving sounds mixes with the surrounding environmental noises, you are likely to experience genuine Ambient Music.

Ambient 0 v1.5 - Microtonal Ambient Techno Jam

video upload by ChrisLody

"So Sonicware dropped a new firmware update for the Ambient 0 on Friday which fixes bug and adds a bunch of new features, main details below.

So this jam uses the Noise channel to process external audio by filtering it and panning it around, plus the hands on control for that is great fun. I've also dialled in a Pure Minor temperament and I'm using the new Osc Level target to create an envelope like decay using a one shot LFO. Hopefully you'll be able to hear some of the new temperament in this, particularly in the melody line. Because of the way temperaments work (video soon) they all need a root note assigning to them and this can be abused to get things even more wonky which is what I've done here by setting it to Ab which I'm sure is the wrong key. All in all some very nice additions which make the Amb0 even more appealing to me."

Behringer Introduces the UB-1 Spirit for $49

Another mini synth from Behringer. Curious what makes one a Spirit vs. Soul. So far they have introduced the ProVS Soul, the JP-4000 Spirit, the Saturn Soul, and now the UB-1 Spirit. I thought this one was based on the OB-Xa/upcoming UB-Xa, but per below it uses the Matrix-6/1000 CEM 3396/3397. via Wikipiea: "CEM3396 Microprocessor Controllable: Wave-Shaper x2, VCF, VCA. CEM3397 same core design as CEM3396 but with separate external signal (noise/sub/wavetable) input and VCA to mix stage and additional Pan VCA and L/R output stage. Originally labelled MS1215 and designed for Marion Systems MSR-2. Relabeled as PA397 for DSI."

I'm guessing no matrix modulation on the UB-1. It's not a mini Matrix-6/M1000. It just uses the chip.

Details:

"Introducing the UB-1, a Portable Analog Synthesizer with 2 Analog Oscillators, Classic VCF and Arpeggiator.

Uli passionately believes in empowering everyone by providing access to great sounding musical instruments, especially for kids, so they can start a lifelong love affair with electronic music and sound synthesis.

The UB-1 synthesizer is fully developed and once we receive the chips, we’ll be shipping this marvel your way. Don’t be fooled by the size - this is a monster synth in a small package. Best of all the estimated price is only US$ 49.

What’s under the tiny hood?

- Programmable synthesizer with 2 DCOs and classic 4-pole filter

- Legendary 3396/3397 analog chip design, found in the Oberheim Matrix 6/1000*

- 16 touch
-sensitive keys for great playability

- 32 memory presets, expandable via SynthTribe app

- Arpeggiator with 3 patterns and hold function

- Individual envelopes for VCF and VCA for creative sound shaping

- 2 powerful LFOs to control filter and oscillator tuning

- 6 functions buttons and OLED display for easy and immediate parameter editing

- USB Micro connector allows powering via smartphone, power bank or computer

- Comprehensive USB/MIDI implementation (including NRPN/CC control of all parameters and bulk load/save)"

Emu Emax II
Kurzweil PC1x.
Revox B77 MkII

Backtrack recorded on Pro Tools and dumped to the reel tape.
For those curious, the droplet sound was synthesized on the JP8000. It is a noise that has to do with the filter resonance (and the JP's noise waveform ;)

The mini switch(Up position) is to drive VCO.The trigger signal of the sequencer is connected EG.

VCO--- Voltage Controlled Oscillator (Wide range Frequency control knob)

EG---Envelope Generator (Attack,Release,Out Level)

It accepts the trigger signal from Sequencer,processes the signal and send it to VCA.

LFO---{Out Level,Speed,Mix(Tri⇔Square),mini switch(to VCO)}

It gives vibration to VCO.


NOISE GENERATOR---{Out Level,Switch(to VCO)}

It can make snare sound and noise mixed vco.


VCA---Voltage Controlled Amplifire ( Out Level,Initial Gain)

Initial Gain should be used with EG Out Level to adjust EG effects.

You can make lots of sound and the 8step sequencer can drive another ANALOG SYNTH.
