Soma is one of the coolest companies I've discovered in a very expensive and exploratory last 2 years.. While I burned through other company's instruments, a year later I have a Soma Lyra-8, Soma Cosmos, a Soma Dvina, and a Soma Meta conformer. Great video, conversation, company, and philosophy. Much love!
Thank you for this very interesting chat! Vlad has a lot of sensible and inspiring things to say about music. I work in software myself, and music is a pastime for me, but an important one. I love my softsynths, but I've always known that live performance would demand something more tactile and immediate (though it's not something I plan to do any time soon). I have a number of hardware instruments as well as using my DAW, and recently I've added LYRA8 and a few other "non-programmable" synths too, such as Neutron and Mavis - and I've been trying to learn some acoustic instruments as well, to expand my palette. Playing "real" instruments is always an exploration more than a technical exercise and frees up the creative mind. Yes, it's about building a relationship with your instruments.

That's true! I have never stopped being in awe at the infinite possibilities of the Lyra-8 and its analog knobs. The sound is just alive in there and you can bloom it or kill it with just one touch.
