LIVEN 8bit warps v3.0 – All Black Limited Edition
The Liven 8bit warps – All Black – is an “all-black” limited edition of the popular 8bits warps Groovebox.
LIVEN 8bit warps combines an 8-bit waveform memory synthesizer with a step sequencer, designed with a focus on live electronic performance. The classic 8-bit sweep function found in classic consoles and handhelds has been ported and upgraded for the Liven 8-bit warps. Use this function to recreate classic soundtracks or push it to the limit for unique percussive sounds. Use the highly responsive DELAY and BIT CRUSHER to transform your pattern in real time. Create disintegrating tape loop sounds by maxing out the delay’s mix control and then tweaking the speed control. Create short loops for machine gun effects, or drop the speed down to hear the loop drop deeper and deeper with each repetition. Use the BIT CRUSHER to dial down Liven 8-bit warp’s sampling rate. Use it in small doses to emulate early digital synths, or max it out for devastating distortion. Use the rich CHORUS and FLANGER to turn the 8-bit warps into a rich string machine.
