Leviasynth subtractive synthesis Oscillator tips

video upload by Ken Flux Pierce Fluxwithit

"The Leviasynth Allows you to create a wide range of sounds from vintage sloppy subtractive synthesis to tightly bound FM sounds and everything in between. Here I show some tips on how to get the most out of the oscillator section's ability to have drift and movement when creating those vintage analog subtractive synthesis style sounds.

ASM Leviasynth | Sounds and Key Features | Synth Universe

video upload by Synth Universe

"A musical exploration of Leviasynth, Ashun Sound Machines’ successor to the Hydrasynth. Leviasynth is an 8 oscillator algorithmic synthesizer with analog and digital filters and five types of synthesis.

All the sounds featured in this video were created by me and are included in the Leviasynth factory presets (except Synfluctuate and PD keys which may be released by ASM as part of future banks). If you own or try out a Leviasynth, you can browse patches by sound designer and select Synth Universe to find all my sounds. Here I have often emphasized sounds that make use of the analog filter, showing the ability of Leviasynth to emulate analog synths, as this is one of the first things I want to know when assessing a hybrid synth. I also feature patches that highlight the other types of synthesis including FM and phase distortion.

This is a deep and powerful ‘monster’ of a synth and so far I have really only scratched the surface of its capabilities. There are too many features to list here so go to Ashun Sound Machines website to find out more.

Disclaimer: ASM sent me a pre-production unit for the purposes of sound design, but otherwise they had no input into the making of this video or the opinions expressed within.

No external enhancement or processing was applied to the sounds in this video: you are hearing them as output directly from the synth.

Note: Leviasynth does have a powerful arpeggiator and sequencer, but as they were still being finalized during the time I created these patches they are not featured in this video."

ASM LEVIASYNTH Review // Keyboard vs Desktop vs Hydrasynth

video upload by loopop

Details:


From the darkest recesses of the unexplored oceans comes ASM's most powerful creation yet—a hybrid algorithmic synthesizer with sixteen-voice polyphony, eight oscillators per-voice, and a truly absurd amount of sound design potential. There are over 300 waveforms available for each voice's eight oscillator slots, giving you access to a bonafide sandbox of sonic alchemy. Each voice's oscillators can be arranged and rearranged for versatile modulation schemes using the many available algorithms. This open-ended method of crafting timbres gives you nearly-unlimited possibilities for sculpting sounds ranging from familiar tones to completely alien timbres. In addition to the ability to create your own algorithm, the Leviasynth also comes with 144 preset algorithms for quick sparks of inspiration, and the ability to morph between these oscillators non-linearly.

The oscillators can be modulated in a multitude of ways to create even more timbral variation: Frequency Modulation, Phase Modulation, Pulse Width Modulation, HTE Sync, and Phase Distortion can all be applied to Leviasynth's oscillators for nearly-endless sound design potential. These, along with nearly every other parameter, can be affected using the internal 32-slot modulation matrix. Each of the eight oscillators includes its own volume envelope, along with five additional shared envelopes and five LFOs per-voice for creating a moving sonic texture within the canvas of the expansive modulation matrix.

The Leviasynth is one of ASM's most expressive synthesizers to date, offering a 61-key keybed with full polyphonic aftertouch, MPE compatibility, and a four-octave ribbon controller for even deeper playability. Record and playback more than just audio with the internal three-track sequencer, allowing you to record note, arpeggio, and macro automation data. Control a plethora of parameters across the synth with the eight individual macro controls, which provide a deep level of expressivity given the broad timbral potential of Leviasynth's multi-algorithm design. Expand this expressiveness into your Eurorack systems with the 3.5mm CV I/O, providing two assignable Mod inputs, as well as outputs for Pitch, Gate, Clock, and two assignable Mod outputs.

Leviasynth offers both analog and digital filters for sculpting multi-layered timbres. On the analog side, you get a buttery-smooth four-pole low pass, which provides the foundation for beautiful, intimate sounding patches. On the digital-end of the spectrum there is a complex, Hydrasynth-style multimode filter with eighteen different filter types. All of these filters can self-oscillate at high resonance settings, along with pre-drive saturation for helping your patches cut through any mix. The effects section offers two independent methods for applying that extra layer of polish to your sound. In the master effects, you can shape and transform your final sound with Delay, Reverb, Distortion, Rotary, Phaser, Chorus, Compression, EQ and more. The second method provides dedicated insert effects, which offer five flavors of Delay and four Reverbs for giving your sounds that ever-important sense of space. This two-layered approach to effects gives the Leviasynth a sound all its own, and when used in tandem with the aforementioned suite of timbral shaping engines, your imagination is the only limit. Like the vast unexplored waters of the deepest oceans, the ASM Leviasynth holds an immense amount of undiscovered potential underneath its dormant surface.

Hydrasynth Presets with Juno 60 / 106 style analog chorus

video upload by Tena Lock (Tenalock)

"Decided to do another video about the Hydrasynth trying to capture that magical Roland Juno 106 and Juno 60 using presets I programmed. Using the magic of bucket brigade analog chorus.

You can see me turning off the chorus on the Hydrasynth sometimes, and sometimes leaving it on because it sounds better to my ears. If you turn off the Hydrasynth chorus it can be better because it doesn’t sound over the top and cause phasing that makes it sound worse.

When you see the cost of plugin chorus like Roland cloud Juno 60 chorus for $160 but then you can buy and analog chorus that does (imo) an even better job for $120 you might think the world has gone crazy lol ( the in version 2 of the chorus pedal - much better)

You can’t hear the Hydrasynth effects of the built chorus here when the pedal is off because you have to use a mono out into the stereo chorus.

If you want to hear the output of the Hydrasynth stereo chorus head here:"

9 Most Famous Synthesizer Sounds Ever - played on Hydrasynth

video upload by Tena Lock (Tenalock)

"Well I had an ideas to make famous synthesizer sounds for Hydrasynth and give them away. I’ll drop the link tomorrow, I am falling asleep, as usual it took 5 times longer than I thought to everything done.

I started off with Ben Bohmer and Beyond abeles lead, I though why not to a modern track mixed in with vintage ones.

Then Daft Punk, Europe- the final Countdown, Duran Duran, Axel F Harold Faltemyer and the unison sweep from Rush originally on the OBx I think.

So much nostalgia in these classic synth sound and very happy with the results"
