Sonicware LIVEN 8bit warps

Sound generation

You can choose between four synthesis models Warp, Attack, Morph and FM. Three of them draw from a pool of 128 waveforms respectively variants, which are processed differently in the respective synthesis model. Complicated? No, each model gets along with three parameters, faster you can hardly get to the desired sound.

The epithet 8-bit is program with this sound generator, because crystal clear and HiFi one does not want to be. The adjusted sound flows into a resonant, digital multimode filter, which offers lowpass, Bandpass and Highpass. Life is breathed by means of LFO and an ADSR envelope, furthermore you can record in the sequencer. Parameter locks record in the sequencer. The signal path is completed with the switchable effects Chorus, Flanger, Delay, Reverb and Plate.

Sequencer

The sequenceris programmable live or stepwise and has a memory capacity of 128 patterns, each of which can be up to 64 steps long. Transposing in real time is possible as well as setting Slide commands and other gate lengths. The shuffle (swing) parameter adds more groove to melodies and basslines. The switchable arpeggiator acts as an additional playing aid and idea generator. Thanks to different voice modes the Sonicware LIVEN 8bit warps can be played monophonic, legato or unison; for the latter there is even a detune function, which creates very fat sounds.
