The Lyra might be the best piece of hardware I’ve ever bought. I absolutely adore mine.

Very specific! But also very dope

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.

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.

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.
