Sonicware Liven Texture Lab

Description

Sample, slice, transform and reconstruct audio to synthesize completely new sounds.

The LIVEN Texture Lab offers a wide variety of sound textures ranging frombeautifully lush ambient pads to chaotically aggressive experimental noisethat will take you to new sonic frontiers.

The Texture Lab uses agranular processorthat slices sounds into grains ranging from 2 ms to 1 second in length, then transforms and reconstructs them in a variety of ways, including manipulating grain shape, density, time warp, spatial position, and playback method to createentirely new sounds.

Granular synthesis parameters are easily accessed from 10 knobs and are designed for intuitive control.

The LIVEN Texture Lab is a4-voice polyphonic synthesizer that can record 32 samples of up to 6 seconds, generate grains from any part of a sample, and synthesize them usingtwo modulationssources, an envelope generator, and process the sound through different filter types.

The Texture Lab can also be used as aneffects processor for real-time granular processingof stereo signals from the line input. It is also possible to freeze the flowing sounds for 6 seconds to add granulated sound effects.

The LIVEN Texture Lab featuressix high-quality stereo reverb types.All reverb types have a shimmer parameterthat allows you to layer reverb on top of reverb in octaves to create fantastical and majestic sounding spaces.

The shimmer reverb can also be applied to the stereo signal from the line input.

The LIVEN Texture Lab is equipped with ahigh-performance 128-step sequencerthat has earned the LIVEN series a solid reputation. In addition to recording notes, it can alsorecord changes in granular processing parametersover time.
You can record knob operations in real time or directly record parameters to specific steps allowing for more complex sound textures.
