Setting Up...

video upload by No Lake

"Just a few words to let you know that I'm still here. I'm currently working on the new era of my music. It's heading in the direction I wanted it to go. I introduced you to the concept of Brussels School, which means everything and nothing, and I realize that it's ultimately something that suits me.

So what's next? I'll gradually introduce you to jams based on this concept. Rather long pieces that take the time to establish an atmosphere. Something absorbing, bewitching, with a hypnotic and almost insidious rhythm. Something along the lines of "Illusion" or "Hypnosis," which were two of the channel's top three hits. I take this as proof that I'm on the right path.

As explained three weeks ago, there will no longer be videos every week. They will arrive when they arrive. The long-term idea is to rework all these jams to create a real album centered around a single philosophy, but this is another story for later.

Wishing you a great day! See you soon.

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."

“Time is Now” Creating an Ambient Track Live Using Sonicware Ambient Zero & Oberheim TEO-5 Synths

video upload by Maria Calfa-DePaul

"I am a big fan of sonicware’s liven offerings and I have several and this is becoming one of my favorites because it’s just it’s got a lot of character. It’s great for using with other synths and it’s got a sequencer and I use this live in the video trying to build up an ambient track and then having the TEO be like the headliner where I can riff on it and have it all worked together. I really enjoyed myself during this. It’s a little hard sometimes multitasking but hopefully I was able to provide you with some entertainment and enjoyment."

Vocal Ambient EP ( Liven Ambient 0 + Roland E-4)

video upload by Dylan Ferno

"Making a DAWless experimental Vocal Ambient EP with the Sonicware Liven Ambient Zero and the Roland E4 (Aira Compact)

I've been inspired lately by the Album, Secret Life, by Fred Again and Brian Eno, which is basically just glitchy autotuned vocal mantras over chill piano chords and drones. The album Bad Cameo by Lil Yachty and James Blake was also some inspiration for this one."

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."

Best Ambient Synth Shootout #145: Modal Skulpt - Song 1

video upload by Christian's Sonic Spaces

"This is the first, quite relaxing recording with the Modal Skulpt. It is a unique sounding, little 4-voice polyphonic virtual analogue synthesizer. The size of the Modal Skulpt is somewhere between the Korg Volca and the Sonicware Liven.

I used for the recording the following FX pedals:
Pigtronix Echolution 2 Deluxe, GFI System Specular Reverb 2.

The signal went through a Presonus StudioLive 16.0.2 into the PC via USB for recording. To create the complete song I recorded consecutively several stereo tracks. On some tracks Compressor and EQ where added in Cubase. The final song was then mastered using iZotope Ozone."

How to Make 'Deeper' Grooves in Electronic Music

video upload by Dylan Ferno

"Quick tutorial on how to make more complex drum patterns in techno and deep house music, to add more interest to one bar loops.

This may be a bit more geared towards beginners, so please add any tips to the comments as well.

I am using the Sonicware Liven Ambient 0 as a drum machine here, along with the Novation Circuit as a second groovebox, but these tips can apply to any gear and genre.

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."
