A suggestion to get around the FX-Track NRPN issue, is to assign the FX parameters to the Performance macros on the A4. Those do have regular CC destinations.
Thanks for sharing your proficiency along with your skills in unpacking the countless possibilities found in this droning set .. mind blowing potential .. it is a beast .. cheers to the world of sound!
Great idea to use the A4 as an effects unit for the lovely L8. My only concern is the reverb tail is not long enough 😩 but I love the idea - using the step sequencer to manipulate the effects is great.
If you don't know the artist KMRU, you should get to know his music (he's amazing)- his entire catalog is centered around the Lyra-8 and he uses it live, too.
Great setup and beautiful sound. I wonder what would happen if you added the Sonicware Liven Ambient to that setup? More depth? Would be interesting. Great video!
Wow, The Lyra 8 is such a beast! Really need to keep my student ass from buying that thing. But the sound and textures I could be lost for days with that thing.
yoooo in regards to him not able to cc control the fx track paramters from the faderfox. he could assign performance macros on the analog four to control the fx parameters he wants. Performance macros are cc controlled. At least they are on my mk2, so i'm guessing it applies to mk1
@asterisium Hi liam. This show is fun. Strange instrument. Thanks for the discovery 😊, never heard of it. To All of us Continue to support this channel.
I had tried that quick quick and wasn’t able to map it to the fx params. I might have over looked something. I was in a bit of a rush putting it all together for the show. I’ll give it an other go 😉
@@antonv13absolutely, I had tried using the CV channel going into the Lyra but it was hard to get useable results on the fly in an improvisational context. In the studio though it’s a yummy combo
Yeah, Liam. Let’s just ignore this and silently promote more tech from a terrorist country. I understand that you are not related to the war in Ukraine, but it hurts every time when people suggest that “topic xyz is outside of politics”. Unfortunately me and many more musicians in Ukraine are creating under drone attacks and rockets. Some of them are unable to do it, cause of this. But yeah, let’s keep it PG and only synth related for your comfort guys.
@@antonv13 I’ll provide my arguments in some time. I also want explicitly say thank you to all work that Liam is doing on this channel. I like that content! Thank you Liam! I appreciate your input in music community!

I really like Pat - very informative and concise guest - thanks for the insight!
Yeah Pat's the man.
The Lyra might be the best piece of hardware I’ve ever bought.
I absolutely adore mine.
Very specific! But also very dope

Noted!

Cheers to you!
Stoked you liked it 🙏
Yes always the kick!!! Went from 10/10 to an 11 ❤
“This all goes to 11”
Love this. Been fan of all drone music
Thank you for watching!
Liam, these apprroach series are superb! Can you have them do a litte 10min live at the end?
The best thing would be to check out their music on Bandcamp / SoundCloud ect!
Great idea to use the A4 as an effects unit for the lovely L8. My only concern is the reverb tail is not long enough 😩 but I love the idea - using the step sequencer to manipulate the effects is great.
Pat’s full of great ideas 😊
😊 yeah it’s not the best reverb by a long shot but it gets the job done live
Every time I start to loose hope with my Lyra, I see someone use it in a cool, new, inspiring way!
Keep going with it!
I feel the same way hahaha
Back at it again with the sick vibes !
😏 thx for watching
Vibes all dayyy
Love the concept, going to try it out :-) btw The faderfox pc4 can't do NPRN to control the A4's fx track but the Faderfox EC4 can!
Oh well there ya go!
I appreciate that info 😉
Liam out there Killen it again
My guy
great seeing the a4 get some love
For real - still a beast of a unit !
That string sound makes me think of the soundtrack to the film Annihilation. Otherworldly.
I was like 🤯 when I heard it
If you don't know the artist KMRU, you should get to know his music (he's amazing)- his entire catalog is centered around the Lyra-8 and he uses it live, too.
Oh amazing thanks for this addition!
You know I’m only aware of him as a field recordist. I’ll have to give his music a hard listen. Thanks for the tidbit!
Great setup and beautiful sound. I wonder what would happen if you added the Sonicware Liven Ambient to that setup? More depth? Would be interesting. Great video!
Perhaps ! Something to consider 😊
I’m sure it would sound great. Wonderful contrasting textures
Omg 🔥🔥🔥🔥 how you make a kick that was brilliant. It was analog?
Yeah it’s coming from the analog four!
Wow, The Lyra 8 is such a beast! Really need to keep my student ass from buying that thing. But the sound and textures I could be lost for days with that thing.
There’s nothing on the market quite like it
Buy it!!
I didn’t need it and couldn’t afford it but I’m so glad I got drunk and bought it.
@@LiamKillen exactly however there is the lyra fx.
@@paulderbyshire6953 one day I will!
Please buy it when you are still a student!
15:30 holy shit this is actually good
Haha thx for watching!
I admit hahaha, did it on the fly and was never able to recreate it 😅
yoooo in regards to him not able to cc control the fx track paramters from the faderfox. he could assign performance macros on the analog four to control the fx parameters he wants. Performance macros are cc controlled. At least they are on my mk2, so i'm guessing it applies to mk1
Thank you for adding this ! :-)
Reminds me of John Cale’s playing in the VU.
Ouuu interesting
can we get an update on his techno setup?
Maybe sometime soon!
Yes let’s!! We’ll cook it up soon 😎
Gorgeous tuning he had on the Lyra 8. I'd like to see what he did.
He mentions it in the video!
C2, F2, D#3, G3, C4, D#4, D5, G5
Liam do you give one on one tutorial lessons on the Tr-8s
I certainly do- you can book here: www.liamkillen.com/consultation
Really like your content. Since you are in Montreal, do you happen to speak french fluently ? Some content in french would be awesome.
My French isn’t fluent enough! I appreciate you watching! 😊
J’avoue 😉
Nice bro🔥
Thx for watching 😊

Guys, control a4 fx params with performance mode!
Noted!
This, also the A4 has CV out which can be utilised.
I had tried that quick quick and wasn’t able to map it to the fx params. I might have over looked something. I was in a bit of a rush putting it all together for the show. I’ll give it an other go 😉

🍻
how many DAWs are in your "DAWless" setup?
zero ? lol ... DAWLESS refers to the lack of current day DAWs - as in a lap top software.
@@LiamKillen do you know what DAW is an acronym for?
Soma Labs never denied the fact that they support Russian war. There are many other musical instruments that are deserving attention
Don’t know enough about the topic to comment
If you have any synth related comments in the future though, let us know! 😊
Synth related? Like information relevant when choosing what synths to buy?
Yeah, Liam. Let’s just ignore this and silently promote more tech from a terrorist country. I understand that you are not related to the war in Ukraine, but it hurts every time when people suggest that “topic xyz is outside of politics”. Unfortunately me and many more musicians in Ukraine are creating under drone attacks and rockets. Some of them are unable to do it, cause of this. But yeah, let’s keep it PG and only synth related for your comfort guys.
I highly doubt it, since I believe he’s Ukrainian. Soma labs is based in Russia though. Where did you get the info that they support the war?
@@antonv13 I’ll provide my arguments in some time.
I also want explicitly say thank you to all work that Liam is doing on this channel. I like that content! Thank you Liam! I appreciate your input in music community!
Bro uses this for his bedroom live sets.
I’m sure you do plenty of live sets in YOUR bedroom if you know what I mean.
Are you gig shamming me? 😂
