Lofi Ambient w/ LIVEN Ambient Ø & 2 casette players | Four lines 2025-06-05 by atnr

video upload by atnr

"A piece created with ‪@SONICWARE‬ LIVEN Ambient Ø and two cassette players. Lo-fi piano, city bustle, and wave sounds drift in and out of sync.

Cassette players:

‪@WeAreRewind1‬ wearerewind plays a tape loop of piano harmonies.

‪@IbanezOfficial‬ RP200 plays a slower tape loop of a short piano melody, processed with reverb via the ‪@ChaseBlissAudio‬ MOOD MK II.

Ambient Ø: Replays wave sounds degraded in ‪@ChaseBlissAudio‬ LOSSY, while improvising additional synth lines.

Environmental sounds are edited and layered later in the DAW."

Ambient Ø, EP-133 K.O.II, GENERATION LOSS MKII | Wasteland 2025-05-14 by atnr

video upload by atnr

"A piece created with ‪@SONICWARE‬ LIVEN Ambient Ø and the ‪@teenageengineering‬ EP-133 K.O.II—scraping stone noises intertwine with distorted synth tones.

Ambient Ø: Plays a looping synth-pad while I add noise bursts and slow-attack sine waves. I also duplicate the recorded track one octave lower, filter it to leave only the lows, and use it to reinforce the bass.

EP-133 K.O.II: Loops a sample of stones being rubbed together, with Punch-In FX applied in real time."

"The Korg Minilogue is in arpeggiator mode, while the Ambient Liven Ø plays a few notes with the Moss by @tybo_ambientsky pattern.
The Minilogue has an additional effect, with the Nocturnal pedal by Collision Devices, which adds delay and depth to the arp.

How to Make Percussion Sounds on the Sonicware Liven Ambient Ø | Percussion Synthesis Tutorial

video upload by Sonic Cartography

"In this tutorial, I’ll show you how to make percussion sounds on the Sonicware Liven Ambient Ø. With its combination of wavetable, ring modulation and FM synthesis, the synthesizer is surpassingly capable in this regard. It can also be a good starting point for learning about percussion synthesis (or at least it was for me). The video covers a variety of percussive sounds, including drums, high hats, and other melodic percussion sounds, reminiscent of bells, xylophones, marimbas, toy pianos etc."

Sonicware Ambient Ø Sample Manipulation Experiement - Speak Clearly....

video upload by ChrisLody

"I had a an hour or so free time this afternoon to do something experimental, messing with the Ambient 0's Noise layer for the purposes of sample manipulation.

I found the tape deck shown, a Genexxa CTR-96, in a charity shop recently and bought it immediately as it had a tape inside. That's always in 'insta-buy' scenario for me and it paid off. On the tape is the phrase you hear, 'You should speak clearly to get the best recognition accuracy, full stop'. The lady repeats this 3 time on the 3 getting slower and sounding more frustrated. There seem to be children making noise in the background so my best guess is she was a teacher and was trying out some 90s speech to text which wasn't working well (it didn't back then), but I'm not sure. The rest of the tape is full of unintelligible voices of children in the presumed classroom. The tape deck has multiple playback speeds so I used High in order to be able to record the whole phrase in the sample time allowed on the Amb0, then pitched it back down afterwards.

So that's sampled into the Amb0 and then I use it's LFOs to mostly control pitch. In hindsight I should have also routed the level and cutoff, maybe in the future. It can do some interesting things with the stepped LFO shapes to pitch as they contain sections that stop moving so the speech is still recognisable. Also the reverse delay is very good for glitching things as you can hear at the end."

Ambient w/ Moog One Ambient Ø Tape Loop | Unexpected Loss 2025-03-21 by atnr

video upload by atnr

"A piece created using the Moog One, Ambient Ø, and tape loops. Glitched piano tones and lo‑fi synth textures gently unfold into an ambient soundscape.

On the Moog One, I send MIDI from the DAW to play harmonies, layering live melodies while adjusting the chorus effect parameters.

On the Ambient Ø, I shape simple synth tones with its built‑in effects and filters, then route them through the GENERATION LOSS MK II for a lo‑fi character.

For the tape loop, I pre‑recorded a piano performance, glitch it with the NTS‑3 looper, and add delay using SPECULAR TEMPUS."

Rhodes Mark 2 Prophet-10 Ambient Ø MOOD MK II | Your Dream 2025-03-07 by atnr

video upload by atnr

"A piece created using the Rhodes MK2, ‪@SequentialLLC‬ Prophet-10, and ‪@SONICWARE‬ LIVEN Ambient Ø. Minimal Rhodes tones are layered with electronic sounds from a synthesizer.

The Rhodes MK2 is processed through a send/return using the ‪@BOSSinfoglobal‬ CE-5 for chorus, and a slight delay is applied at the final output via ‪@strymon‬ TIMELINE.

On the Prophet-10, I perform monophonic pad sounds, with the output processed by Strymon blueSky to add deep reverb.

Ambient Ø is played manually while adjusting the parameters on the‪@ChaseBlissAudio‬ MOOD MKII."

SONICWARE CyDrums & LIVEN Ambient Ø | Connections 2025-02-13 by atnr

video upload by atnr

"A piece created using CyDrums and Ambient Ø. Over a glitchy beat, a repeating synth loop and random synth phrases emerge.

On CyDrums, I activate random steps in PERFORMANCE mode and adjust the filter, using parameter locks in the sequence to change panning and timbre.

On Ambient Ø, I loop harmonies while setting sequence phrases to random steps and manipulating the timbre. The sequence phrases are configured with parameter locks to adjust filter modulation and release settings.

On both devices, I use mute to bring phrases in and out during the performance."

"Patch download link & table of contents below. I’ve been really enjoying these string sounds on the Sonicware Liven Ambient Ø lately and I thought I’d share them. By the way, I’m looking for new ideas for videos, so if you have requests, questions, topics, etc. you think I could cover, please let me know in the comments! I can't guarantee I'll cover all of them because I've making videos at a snail's pace lately, but it would really help me to know what people are actually interested in!

Ambient Ø, wavestick, PO-32, field recordings in Tokyo | Time Ripple 2025-01-29 by atnr

video upload by atnr

"A Piece Created Using ‪@SONICWARE‬ LIVEN Ambient Ø, ‪@homebakeinstruments8214‬ Wavestick, and ‪@teenageengineering‬ PO-32

Gentle repeating sounds and drone textures resonate against the backdrop of sounds from Tokyo's residential areas.

Ambient Ø: I perform on the built-in keyboard while playing a loop. I use chorus as the master effect and route the output through ‪@strymon‬ NIGHTSKY to apply reverb and filters. Additionally, I modulate the pitch to create a wavering effect.

Wavestick: The sound is processed through ‪@ChaseBlissAudio‬ LOSSY with reverb, filters, and bit reduction effects, and then deep reverb delay is applied using ‪@HologramElectronics‬ MICROCOSM.

PO-32: Used to play sound effects, which are processed with delay and reverb effects from the ‪@KORG_INC‬ NTS-1."

Sonicware LIVEN Ambient Ø and Prophet Rev2 | Dreamy ambient experimentation [NO TALK]

video upload by Le Code

"Two worlds meet for an ambient improvisation: on the one hand, Sonicware's LIVEN Ambient Ø plays random notes, and on the other, the soundscape pads played by Sequential's Prophet Rev2. With these two machines, it's possible to create rather convincing soundscapes, perhaps with the addition of extra effects on the LIVEN Ambient Ø, which sounds a little dry here."

LIVEN Ambient Ø, Moog DFAM, Generation Loss MK2, MICROCOSM | Aurora Spectrum 2025-01-06 by atnr

video upload by atnr

"A piece created using ‪@SONICWARE‬ LIVEN Ambient Ø and the ‪@MoogSynthesizers‬ Moog DFAM. The basic structure is built with Ambient Ø and performed using its built-in keyboard. It synchronizes with the DFAM via SYNC to produce rhythms. The DFAM is routed through the ‪@HologramElectronics‬ MICROCOSM, adding reverb while using a looper. ‪@ChaseBlissAudio‬ Generation Loss MK2 transforms the overall sound of Ambient Ø into a lo-fi atmosphere."
