Sonicware Liven XFM [FM Synthesizer Groove Box] 3 new FM engines with 4-track sequencer

The LIVEN XFM is a compact synth equipped with live performance focused features, four FM synth engines, and a 4-track step sequencer. Its three newly developed FM FUSION engines enable a wide variety of sound possibilities. The X-LAB engine automatically analyzes and balances two sounds that you can intuitively mix between with a simple knob twist. Two overlays are included for making precise edits to sounds, allowing you to take full advantage of all the FM Engine's parameters. It also has powerful features ideal for electronic live performance, including 16 physical control knobs, a step-by-step parameter lock function, realtime effects and an interface designed to easily sync up with a wealth of external devices. Merge two FM sounds with a single knob to create a completely new sound. Transform one FM sound into another over a specific period of time. Continuously transform between two FM sounds using an LFO. Ready-to-use presets including, leads, keyboards, strings, winds, basses, pads, chords, drums, and sound effects. Merge and sculpt FM sounds with a single, intuitive, knob turn. The X-Lab engine merges two FM sounds by smoothly blending their envelopes, modulation routing, and feedback. The X-Lab algorithm can merge sounds with radically different FM structures and overtones, all without losing the fundamental tuning of the sound. Pitch locking can also be turned off to create brilliant atonal transitions between FM sounds. For those who want to dive into the FM Engine, the EDIT mode and included overlay provide full access to the innovative 4-OP XFM engine. 15 knobs and 30 buttons provide quick and intuitive access to all FM parameters. Explore FM synthesis without the conventional menu diving and head scratching. Supports a Wide Variety of Clock Signals Traditional MIDI and SYNC clocks are supported, as well as the Audio Sync function used by Teenage Engineering’s Pocket Operators and the ELZ_1, which combines the clock and audio signals into a single stereo cable. Functioning as a bridge, the LIVEN can translate clock between MIDI, SYNC, and Audio Sync devices, so all of your gear can play in time. Audio Chain Connection The LINE IN jack allows you to chain other electronic instruments together without the need for a mixer for simple configurations.
