Soma Labs Lyra. Terra. Cosmos. Source Audio Ventris. 20 minute Ambient - The Return of Lyra

Soma Labs Lyra, Terra, and Cosmos. Source Audio Ventris. 20 minutes ambient, with some darker textures. FabFilter R2 reverb added in Logic Pro X.

Had to get Lyra back into the action! I've been obsessed with the Terra since it came in a few weeks ago, and it has been hard to pay attention to any of my other synths... Terra and Cosmos make a perfect ambient minimalist's dream setup, really hard to think of two pieces of gear that work better together. But I wanted to see how Lyra might find a space in this setup.

Lyra really excels at those big, deep, dark drones and just unique awesome sounds, so I think there is room for all three. Playing Lyra and Terra together was a bit tricky at first, but I feel like I figured it out and I think I did a pretty good job. It gets more complicated when Cosmos is loaded as well as it also requires some attention.

I might try and set up Ornament 8 to run Lyra for parts next time and see how that feels. I am not sold on the Ornament 8 yet. It might be one of those things that I need to continue exploring until I "get" it, but it is not at all intuitive for me and has been difficult to use.

Lyra and Ventris performed well together and I think they will stay linked. I do have Erica Synths Nightverb on backorder and I see that more on the Terra side of things. We shall see...

Both tracks routed to a Bus with FabFilter R2 for additional reverb. The R2 plugin is freaking fantastic! I use it almost exclusively for reverb in Logic Pro (sometimes I still call on SuperMassive though). The Lyra track just has a touch added, but I sent alot of the Terra track through it. That enabled me to used the delay on Terra which, I think, really thickens it up...
