Moonbeam - SOMA Cosmos + LYRA 8

The goal of this session was to explore the sonic combination of the SOMA Cosmos drifting memory station and Lyra 8.

—LYRA—
Lyra 8 tuned to Dm7 / Am7 [D A F C][A C E G] lower voices by fifths and upper voices by thirds. Drive, delay, and total feedback mode used during performance. I set it up this way so I would have two harmonious chords to sample, a nice root note to support the harmony, and an upper voice I could distort with FM to expand the sonic palette.

—COSMOS—
Cosmos in granular delay mode, shortest time. Moderate amounts of Feedback, Blur and Drift added during performance. Didn't use SUP / COM, drive, or the filters. In this mode with this short grain size / delay time and no suppression the effect is a sort of tremolo-esque blending and stretching of notes with smearing across the stereo field. No additional processing or FX.

Audio recorded directly into iPhone XR via iConnectAudio4+ interface.
