SOMA Laboratory is a boutique electronic instrument manufacturer founded by Vlad Kreimer, a Russian-Ukrainian engineer and musician, following the underground success of his LYRA-8 synthesizer. The company originated in Russia and later expanded with a European division in Poland. SOMA frames its design philosophy as "romantic engineering," favoring unconventional, tactile, and exploratory instruments over conventional keyboard-driven synthesis.

The catalog centers on experimental, often idiosyncratic devices. The LYRA-8 is an eight-voice "organismic" drone synthesizer that has become a fixture in dark ambient, noise, and experimental circles, while the PULSAR-23 is a semi-modular analog drum machine with patchable, touch-controlled voices. Other notable instruments include the TERRA polyphonic digital synthesizer, the FLUX touchless controller/synth, the ENNER body-patching synthesizer, the COSMOS effects and looping station, THE PIPE voice-controlled processor, the Rumble of Ancient Times 8-bit noise synth, and the Harvezi Hazze distortion pedal.

SOMA's instruments are generally characterized by skin-contact patch points, absence of MIDI on many models, analog signal paths, and hand-built construction. The brand has cultivated a devoted following among sound designers, film and game composers, and ambient and experimental artists drawn to its tactile interfaces and unpredictable, non-equal-tempered sonic behavior.

Soma Laboratory has 16 products cataloged on Equipboard, including Synthesizers, Modular Synthesizers, and Portable Recorders. Their gear is featured by 51 artists, with the strongest followings in Electronic, Rock, and Pop. Notable users include Andrew Huang, Trent Reznor, and St. Vincent. Soma Laboratory's catalog spans the full price spectrum — from entry-level options to high-end flagships.
