| | RICHARD DEVINE |
 | | Devine brought the visual and musical worlds together by using applications such as Algorithmic Arts Softstep Pro, U&I Software Metasynth, Cycling '74 Max/MSP, Composers' Desktop Project and MRAC Symbolic Composer to compute the musical values of skeletal structures, which he then interwove into his compositions. |
 | | As for digital signal processing and recording, Devine's studio is a gear whore's Xanadu, with a Yamaha O2R 96; a 32-channel Mackie board; a host of Eventide processors (the Orville is his favorite); five custom analog synths (built by a friend); and items from MOTU, Focusrite, TC Electronic, Akai, Clavia and Kurzweil. |
 | | And given that Devine often incorporates as many as 1,500 sounds in one track, that effectual addition to his studio is no doubt a keeper. |
