Sonicware LIVEN Evoke
Sonicware introduces the LIVEN Evoke, a groundbreaking synthesizer designed for artists, composers, and producers who seek deep atmospheric sound design and expressive musicality. Featuring the all-new Acoustronic Flux Oscillator, the LIVEN Evoke fuses the warmth of acoustic instrument timbres with the flexibility of digital synthesis and the dynamic power of a built-in granular processor.
This unique combination makes the LIVEN Evoke an ideal tool for ambient music, film scoring, post-classical compositions, and experimental sound exploration.
