There is a Richard Devine interview/feature over at www.elektron-users.com. Tons of exclusive studio pics, insight into his world, and a collaborative Devine vs. Jeswa track!

I figured some of you may dig it.

Feature: Here
Song: Here

cheers!

hmm, no Live or Reason, odd since he is featured on the Ableton site and has done presets for Propellerheads. OMG LIVE AND REASON AREN'T PRO APPZ!!

I love ya, richard, but you're a promo whore.

That's why he's featured... everywhere. And that's also why he has all the kit in the world. Does it look like he uses his Elektron stuff much? No. And how about his KORE, he promoted that too, I believe - where is it? It's on top of a speaker, way out of reach.

anyone knows what's that openlabs display between the monitors?
where the metering is going on?
i thought they only do some kind of computer crammed into a keyboard stuff.

Yeah, I bought Asect:Desect or whatever its called and to tell you the truth it didn't do anything for me. Its interesting from a sound design perspective for about 2 minutes, then it just all sounds the same.

Asect:Dsect has some truly great tunes, I love that album.

well it's obvious from the photo's that not everything he has is on that list. just take the ARP 2600 for example. it appears much has been omitted. shit load of gear, huh? he needs a spreadsheet to track all them goodies.

actually (get it? ) I thought the Arp 2600 was quite prominent... it even says "model 2600 synthesizer"
looks like the Grey Meanie version sans keyboard:

One thing I found it quite amusing to NOT see was the openLabs Niko/Miko things.

i was referring to the gear list. his list at the bottom of the featureappears not to be complete as you can see from the photos. i put the feature together. trust me i gawked over those photos and that list.

ah. gotcha. You're right, but honestly, just looking at his modular setups I think it would be very hard to list it all.

Did any of you see the GoldFrapp video on sonic state? Talk about gear hogging!

its more like sound effects.
