Do I need another drum machine?
Nope.
Do I want the Pulsar23?
Hell yes.

I’ve been recording it this weekend and one of the things it does that I don’t hear on synths is an almost acoustic texture - it’s own thing but akin to scraping a bow or plucking strings. Hard to describe but there for me. I would like to understand it better though. I’m playing it through AH2 which expands its potential and using a lot of volume fades and cuts on the mixer. Oh and a good reverb is essential.
The Lyra 8 thread…
I posted a demo of the “Eno” and “Rumble” example patches posted by SOMA EU. Dialing in those sounds and then messing around was what got my learning started on the Lyra-8. But I’m a long way from learning everything there is to know about it. I’ve glanced through the manual and will probably learn something after I reread it enough times, but I’ve learned more from just playing with it. Play first, then try to understand how things work later seems to suit me; it’s the same on guitar for me.
One of my best friends tried my Lyra for the first time and came up with this sound that I never would have thought of, within minutes of playing with it. I took a photo of his Lyra settings, then recorded this improvisation with it:
I wonder what the final price will be?
That means I’ll feel 1500 € lighter when it’s out. If the machine turns out to be as capable of surprising me as Lyra is, I don’t think the price is bad at all!
it’s still marked as “estimated maximum price”, so lets hope for a little less
That looks like Schneider’s guess? As far as I’m aware there hasn’t been an official figure from Soma as yet?
and on sonictalk the other day Nick estimated 12 - 1500 euro.
I hope it’s 12 euro
In the YouTube comments of the latest videos, vlad himself states that he is still calculating final production costs.
let’s hope he makes white and black ones!
Vlad confirmed in a YouTube comment that it will be orange and black for now.
“have not in plans white for the moment, but if enough people will wish it we will do”
im definitely going orange!
Black
black will look sick
Definitely an experimental jam Vlad does there!
I think Vlad spoke of quantisation in one the demo vids. Can the triggers be tightly synced?
I really love it. But it scares me a little
Really glad he’s making these in black as well. This thing looks absolutely f’ing mad. Great demo from the man himself!
