Yes, they’re live takes into my Spire Studio recorder.
Pretty much the same process each time; feel into things with the dials and sensors, find some tonal gravity and get into orbit for 5 or 10 minutes.
It was always the first take, mainly to capture whatever was coming up in the moment, so not a great deal of quality control beyond the basics. I’m a bit lacklustre on that side of things…or impatient perhaps
I only used two voices of the Lyra and the delay / LFOs create all the skittering, atmospheric stuff. The only other thing I used was a Ventris for some reverb!
Had another go tonight. Same set up, 0cntrl is sequencing the 0coast and Strega and controlling the SubH sequencer. Lyra is setup with the total feedback engaged and modulating the voices. Sounds huge!
Green Lyra 4 Lyfe! I still love the colour of mine, every day. Having said that, the pink is also pretty cool, and if you haven’t seen the pacifist version, that looks great.
Doesn’t the orange have the white graphics? Makes it look less good to me…
Some exerts from 90 minutes immersed in Lyra’s sorcery yesterday evening, mediated by the Chase Bliss Mood, Polara and H9, with a bit of DFAM creeping in for the finale.
Not sonically very interesting, to be honest, and quite a bit of talking in the video (plus the click bait title) but composer Christian Henson got a couple of Lyras… Six Lyras in different colours sounds pretty instagrammable tho!
Like I said, lots not to like about that video (and I like some of his stuff). Can only imagine the real HELLDRONES some people here would tease out of a 48-oscillator Lyra. Talk about a missed opportunity.
