General

The Sonicware LIVEN Ambient 0 Synthesizer is exactly what it says it is: a hefty bucket of ambience, so if you're looking for soundtrack-worthy washy textures as well as melodics, or working on New Age productions, this model is well worth the investment. This model is able to shape the ultra-spacey and serene so you can weave the perfect atmospherics, all using a sonic palette that's extensive enough to rival a full symphony orchestra.

The Sonicware LIVEN Ambient 0 Concept

Anyone who works with synthesizers already will know what goes into specific sounds. It almost always ends with a load of reverb, which is no surprise if you're looking for a spacious sound. While you can definitely get that spaced-out sound when you fiddle around with the average synth for long enough, with the Ambient 0, all of those soundscapes are placed directly beneath your fingertips, making this model a great pick for composers and producers alike.

Impressive Performance

The list of options available here is actually too long to fit on one page, but to summarise: you're getting multiple layers, each with specific synth engines, a sequencer per layer and a full expanse of effects. To get a real impression of what this machine can do, we recommend taking a look at the clips included under the Videos tab. This isn't an extensive synth, but a focussed synth that's been built with a specific purpose and all of it comes packed away in a portable desktop unit complete with a neat mini-keyboard that comes at a fraction of the price of standard synth-based tanks.

Fantastic Synthesizer once you get your head round all the controls.....and there is lots.
The sounds are quite incredible, it makes very lush and very dark Ambient sounds.
Would highly recommend this gear if you want to make weird and wonderful Ambient sounds.
Great tutorial videos on youtube.

Ik verwachtte veel. Ik kreeg nog meer! Je kan heel veel halen uit dit 'kleine bakje' en dit voor relatief weinig geld. Het feit dat je met 4 aparte kanalen mooie lagen kan opbouwen is een echt pluspunt. Er is ook net een nieuwe firmware update uit, dus het wordt alleen maar beter.

Het is een prima product voor een redelijke prijs. Handig om overal mee naar toe nemen. Als ik hem of haar (ik wil niet misgenderen) aansluit op mijn Mackie mixer en studiomonitoren -ook bij Bax gekocht- komt ie helemaal tot zijn/haar recht.
