First patch with the Mutable Instruments Braids and Grids Modules (Plucked Synthesis)

First patch with the Mutable Instruments Braids and Grids Modules (Plucked Synthesis) from Richard Devine on Vimeo.

First patch experiment using the Mutable Instruments Braids Macro oscillator running in "PLUK" mode. Emulating the sound of raw plucked strings that change with the timbre control via damping, and the color knob changing the plucking position. MakeNoise Rene sending out CV notes to the 1-v/oct input and Gate triggers to the Braids trigger input. The output is then running into the Phonogene for light processing. Liquid drum percussion sequencing by three gate trigger outputs from the Grids module. Trigger one going into the Mungo g0. Trigger two going to the DPO for the lower end kick drum emulation. Final output running lightly through a eventide space pedal.

TR3A - MakeNoise - Mungo g0 - Beat Mutations Patch

TR3A - MakeNoise - Mungo g0 - Beat Mutations Patch from Richard Devine on Vimeo.

Modular patch inspired by Gescom's "TR2A" track off the ISS:SA EP on Skam Records 2013. The patch is being clocked via the MakeNoise Woggle Bug (clocked out) running into the Brain Seed cycle input. Seed and Trigger gate pulses sent to the 4ms SCM. The SCM is running into two MakeNoise Optomix's and Phonogene record CV input function. DPO working as a analog kick drum, and the Mungo g0 is triggering a set of sample based tones that where created in the computer. Maths channels 1 and 4 modulating the linear FM inputs on the DPO. The patch is a experiment trying to create a regenerative sequencer that outputs endless never repeating rhythmic combinations.

Antimatter Audio - Brain Seed - Regenerative Rhythms Patch

Antimatter Audio - Brain Seed - Regenerative Rhythms Patch from Richard Devine on Vimeo.

Antimatter Audio - Brain Seed - Regenerative Rhythms Patch A modified patch/experiment from the Brain Seed Chronicles Page 10 "Funky Rhythm Generation" This patch was a experiment to see how the Brain Seed could be used as an interesting random rhythm generator. The patch was clocked from one intellijel dixie then sent to the seed cycle input. The main analog percussion is being generated by using the "Seed" output going into the 1/volt CV inputs on a MakeNoise DPO, which is then running into one Optomix for fast attacks triggers. There is a second patch cable running into a MakeNoise Brains and two Pressure Points triggering the delay time/offset on a Synthesis Technology E580 Resampling mini-delay (BBD Mode). Feed back clocked/control from the K4815 Pattern Generator. Trigger out from the Brain Seed is running into a 4ms SCM with breakout V2. controlling the strike input on another Optomix making the white noise high-hats courtesy of the Steady State Fate Quantum Rainbow module. The Synthesis Technology E355 dual wavetable LFO output A is running into the shift input, adding in extra variations. One T-Gates output from one of the pressures points running back into the Freeze input. Master mix reverb was the eventide space pedal using the mix knob to wash out the end. :-)

Creating Gestural Sound Effects with the Intellijel Planar Module

Creating Gestural Sound Effects with the Intellijel Planar Module from Richard Devine on Vimeo.

Creating Gestural Sound Effects with the Intellijel Planar Module I setup this patch to work on a sound design project for a client, which needed unique transformer like power ups and electrical like swooshes. I borrowed the patch idea from another fellow sound designer friend Joseph Fraioli who came up with the original patch. I then took that and further added and tweaked a few things to adapt it to this project. The planar X/Y CV out is controlling the pitch of three different sound sources, intellijel cyclebox, and two intellijel Dixies. There is also multiple outs going to three different delay modules, Synthesis Technology E580, MakeNoise Echophon, and Doepfer BBD. This is just a short excerpt from that session of recordings.

MakeNoise - Creature III Patch Outtake

MakeNoise - Creature III Patch Outtake from Richard Devine on Vimeo.

Third patch outtake from the Creature series. This patch was contrived completely using only these MakeNoise modules, Pressure Points, Rene, Optomix, Moddemix, Wooglebug, Maths, DPO (Dual Prismatic Oscillator), Echophon, and Phonogene. The patch was clocked using the Wooglebug as the main tempo, and then sent to 4 different sources. Trills courtesy of the Maths output then triggering sporadically the strike inputs on the Optomix. Rene CV plots the pitch inputs on the DPO and fluttering CV/Gate data to the Phonogene. Woogle stepped out controlling various parameters on Echophon, and Phonogene for extra animation. Reverb splashes by the Eventide Space pedal which was used on the Echophon feedback output and return. One output on pressure points to toggle on and off the freeze function on Echophon for the held feedback effects. This patch was inspired by Morton Subotnick's "Sidewinder." makenoisemusic.com/

"Mu5ca-diN3"- late night modular patch

"Mu5ca-diN3"- late night modular patch from Richard Devine on Vimeo.

Bat Recordings - with the Anabat SD2 - Ultrasonic Echolocation Detector

Bat Recordings - with the Anabat SD2 - Ultrasonic Echolocation Detector Bat field recordings from a recent trip to the North GA mountains. This sound clip was captured using the Anabat SD2 - Bat Detector - high microphone. This device allows you to monitor the ultrasonic echolocation calls of bats for species identification and activity measurement. The particular species of bat in this recording are the Indiana Bat. The typical hearing range of this bat is between 20hz - 150Khz. They locate their prey by means of echolocation. They will produce a very, loud short sound and assess the echo when it bounces back. The type of insect and how big it is can be determined by the quality of the echo and time it takes for the echo to rebound. They also use two frequency types; constant frequency (CF) and frequency modulated (FM) calls that descend in pitch. Each type reveals different information for the bat. The CF is used to detect an object, and the FM is used to provide information regarding the nature of the object and its distance. The pulses of sound produced by the bat last only a few thousandths of a second with silences between the calls that give time to listen for the information coming back in the form of a echo. I was amazed at how complex some of these echolocation patterns looked on a sonogram and was even more blown away by how they sounded. This file was outputted from the Anabat software application which takes the bat calls and converts them to wave files. The Anabat software application also converted the calls to a audible human hearing range (20hz-20khz) as most of the bats calls went up into the 150khz range. http://www.titley-scientific.com/us/index.php/sd2-bat-detector

4ms - PEG Quadratic Beats

Patch using two 4ms Pingable Envelope Generators. This was an experiment to see what rhythmic possibilities are possible using only two PEGs synced to the same LFO clock. This same clock also was controlling one MakeNoise Brains, and two pressure points. The output of the Pressures Points was CV controlling the PEG's divided time divisions making some cool repeating glitchy effects.

MakeNoise Phonogene-Regenerative Record Patch

MakeNoise Phonogene-Regenerative Record Patch

A variation from the Regenerative Record patch from the Phonogene manual. Infinite variations of regenerative slices and cutting on a live looping signal can be heard. The entire patch is running into the summed inputs of a Intellijel Mutagen. I then ran the main output of the Mutagen into the Phonogen, using it more like a stuttering edit plug-in on the master mix. The entire patch is completely modular using no other computers or external processing.

Analogue Modular live set at the Trash Audio Synth Meet 9: Chicago April 3rd, 2011.

Saturday Modular patch:modDemix-René, Brains,PressurePoints-Slow Acid.

Quick patch test with the modDemix and MakeNoise René sequencer running out to several modules for a slow animated control voltage jam. I started with QCV to 1V/ oct into the Cwejman VM-1 (Acid Slow Bassline). Then sent the X-Gate into the Cwejman CTG-VC envelope and I use Y-Gate for Accent/volume. I used the Doepfer 160,161,4ms RCD, SCD for clock divisions for gates into the rene for half time pattern playback. ModDemix was used in VCA mode with Rene going back and triggering the input for interesting gated time triggering of signals. The distant quantized melody is one voice of the VCO2-RM through the intellijel uScale then through Tiptops Z-5000 with a touch of delay. MakeNoise Brains and Pressure Points running in sequence mode to the Synthesis Technology E350, VCO2-RM, WMD Gamma Wave for extra clustering of timbres. The Cwejman BLD is the kick drum, and Noisering for high hats and snare patterns generated by the intellijel uStep.

Intellijel μscale - quantized symmetry

The μscale module is a cv quantizer and musical interval generator. In this simple patch I am using four VCO's. Cwejman VCO-2RM, VM-1,harvestman piston honda, and hertz donut. Everything is being CV sequenced by the output of the μscale. Clocked from one mini ELF LFO to a Doepfer 160, 161 then out to a-151 quad sequential switch controlling the MakeNoise Brains, and two pressure points doing long slow sequences back into the CV and Shift input on the Intellijel μscale. The drums are coming from the cwejman BLD and NS-04 for the white noise snare, and high hats. Effects used TipTop Z5000, Z-DSP, and Doepfer A-187

Recordings of a Velvet Ant, Cow Killer Wasp on SoundCloud

Found a large Velvet Ant walking on my driveway today, and couldn't help but notice the odd sounds this insect was making. The recording is of the insect crawling around inside a cardboard box, before I let it go back into my backyard. The Velvet Ant, also known as the "Cow Killer" is actually not an ant, but a wasp. I recorded this with 2 DPA 4060 Lav's and Sound Devices 702 recorder at 24bit-96Khz.

Richard Devine Access Virus TI Signature Sound Set 2010

Download the new Access Virus TI set for 2010.

This new signature set by the Atlanta based Glitchcore/IDM artist Richard Devine takes your Virus TI to extreme and new territories. Richard’s passion for noise, dirt and distortion can easily be recognized though all his sounds. Many sounds alter drastically with changing the MIDI note pitch although the actual pitch remains nearly the same. Also many sounds evolve over time and can be greatly modified with the preassigned soft knobs.

PHOENECIA - ECHELON MALL: TURNING SOUND DESIGN INTO MUSIC

Josh Kay of DEVSND has released an album of works for film & art exhibitions reworked into an album of sound design & musical goodness.

Phoenecia - Echelon Mall
Produced by Josh Kay & Romulo Del Castillo

From the press release:
Although Phoenecia's Echelon Mall is the culmination of 5 years of exhibitions and film work, the project did not begin with their first commission, rather the moment the first revision was requested. Realizing that useful limbs were bound to be severed, and conversely, that music for film needs to undergo additional surgery to become good listening music, the artists tucked the idea of echelon mall away for safekeeping, adding bits and pieces as time passed...

Native Instruments The Finger vs Richard Devine

Native Instruments The Finger vs Richard Devine from Richard Devine on Vimeo.

Here is a little experiment I tried using Tim Exile's new Finger Plug-in with Logic 9. I was running some of my drums on a track in Logic's Flex mode, slightly drawing in graphic tempo changes, and automating all the parameter twist knobs drastically, while programming every MIDI parameter I could assign on the piano roll editor, Doing more then my two hands could do=) Just letting it all go crazy. Some strange interesting results indeed. =)
