How to UNLEASH the Potential of the Sonicware Liven XFM in 2024

The Sonicware Liven XFM is a great synth but also has its share of limitations. Here are some workaround solutions for these limitations as well as some hidden features to help unlock its potential: 0:00 Extra Voices 1:20 Recording chords (Using 1 voice) 1:45 Double Pattern Length 2:02 Sidechaining 3:08 LFO Sync 4:25 Virtual Analog 5:15 WaveShaping 5:54 SubOscillators 6:55 Detuning 7:53 PWM? 8:15 Bass and Melody on same track 9:35 Wavetable basics 10:10 Custom Wavetables 11:16 More Wavetable options 15:00 Modulation Matrix 17:17 More Source & Destination Routing 18:55 4 LFOs 20:01 Layering Kick and Snares 20:40 Unquantizing 20:50 Increasing grid resolution 21:04 Kick and Snare on same beat 21:35 Drum and Bass Drum pattern 21:50 Extra Tracks 22:45 High hat sound design 23:22 Multi-Effects 25:09 Full Track (Drum and Bass) Extra Tips: -if not highlighted enough...turning off pitch/envelope locking in the X Engines adds a whole other layer of modulation to tweek with widely variable results. It can also act as a good way to slightly or drastically detune patches, as well as produce many "happy accidents." -when creating different waveshapes in the section above, the tone knob also has a significant effect on shaping the waveform -The Log and R.Log LFO waveshapes are great to make unique wavetables in the XLFO engine -Another multi-effect is the chorus, which adds vibrato/tremolo at high speeds (greater than 60) -Layering the kick and snare using 1 voice can also be done in the XFORM lab (Kick forming into snare) #livenxfm
