In this video at 6:00 in richard studio there is elektron analog rytm.

Richard Devine shows off some of his sequences with the Elektron Model Cycles on launch day.

Richard Devine uses the Cwejman VCA-4MX, a quad VCA mixer consisting of four individual voltage controlled amplifiers. It is seen racked amid the array of synths he has at his North Carolina-based studio. An image of it can be seen in the video (10:20). Devine had this to say regarding his arsenal of modular synths: "It’s become like this kinda nonstop sorta… I don’t know how to describe it. It’s just a really inspirational area that I’ve been sorta researching and playing around with, to generate new sounds and sequencing ideas and I’ve been recording nonstop actually since I’ve been using this system."

Richard Devine says [@ 7:21] about the Teenage Engineering OP-1:

“I really really dig this as a controller, strange sequencer, sampling manipulation device, and the synthesis modes are great. I find it to be a really awesome accessory to a MacBook or if you’re running any kind of sequencer like Cubase or Logic… it’s just a cool little device that just fits in your backpack and you pack up with your laptop and bust it out anytime and just start writing and generating ideas and sketches, and works really, really well…”

Richard Devine uses the Cwejman MMF-1, a multi-mode filter. It is seen racked amid the array of synths he has at his North Carolina-based studio. An image of it can be seen in the video (10:20). Devine had this to say regarding his arsenal of modular synths: "It’s become like this kinda nonstop sorta… I don’t know how to describe it. It’s just a really inspirational area that I’ve been sorta researching and playing around with, to generate new sounds and sequencing ideas and I’ve been recording nonstop actually since I’ve been using this system."

In an interview with for AudioTechnology, Devine is seen in this photo with several speakers including the Genelec 8250, with auto calibrated DSP and the Genelec sub, and the Avantone Mix Cubes...

The Avantone MixCubes can also be spotted in the YouTube video here.

"I met Professor Don Hassler at the Atlanta College of Art, he introduced me to a whole new world. He was teaching modular synthesis, computer synthesis, DSP processing, Max/MSP, SuperCollider and Pure Data"

"I use Kontakt quite a bit and use a lot of its internal libraries"

Richard's first patch with the Mutable Instruments Frames, Tides, and Peaks modules (BoC Inspired), sequenced by the Intellijel Metropolis.

Richard Devine has the Elektron Octatrack on the floor of his Euro rack modular synth corner of his North Carolina-based studio. An image of it can be seen in the video (8:55).

The Octatrack is an 8 track performance sampler and features the following:

Instant Sampling & Remixing Radical Audio Manipulation Possibilities Real-time Pitch Scaling and Time Stretch Next Generation Elektron Step Sequencer Dual Assignable FX Per Track Assignable Multi-Parameter Crossfader

Richard Devine bought this modular synth from the late legend, Tim Adams and has this to say about the unit: “This was one of my first modular synths that I have, fully modular synth… He (Tim Adams) took on the idea of the Moog System 55-35 series - you got your three voltage control oscillators (saw, square, triangle, sine outputs), sync switches, mixer section, voltage control filter section, mixer section again, and VCAs, lag processor, balance modulator, multiples bank, multiple triggers bank too, envelope generative section, two 16-step sequencers split into 8 sequencers and you can run-stop-synch them… This was built long before the Euro rack craze was coming out. I've gotten lot of great sounds with this and it has a nice beefy interesting sound quality to it. I constantly go back to using this all the time."

In the video, Richard Devine says, "In this corner these are some of my favorite synths."

In this interview, Richard Devine lists Ableton Live as on of the many DAWs he uses. "I use Nuendo, Logic Pro, Ableton Live, and Pro Tools". Due to the date of the interview, it can be assumed that the version of Ableton that Richard is using is version 9.

Richard Devine is listed on Future Audio Workshop's website as an artist who uses the Circle² synth plugin.

Richard Devine worked with Eventide to have presets available for the Space Reverb. He is featured prominently on the product page as having downloadable presets and is the sole artist mentioned on page 5 of the full list of Space presets.

Also, he lists the Space frequently in citing gear he uses on his YouTube channel. For example, in this video entitled Strum, the Space is visible throughout in the upper left and in the description he says:

The entire mix was sent into the Eventide Space pedal using the "Corridors" patch.

"As a longtime user of Reason, he finds the software has improved his overall efficiency and workflow. Considering the extensive projects that he’s involved in, this is essential."

Richard Devine is mentioned on the official Birdkids product page for his use of the ᵀʰᵉBateleur VCO, praised for its rich sound and versatility in FM synthesis.

Quoted on the official product page.

Wave and Wavefront are an incredibly awesome package for controlling your modular in a very expressive way.

On UVI's website, Richard Devine's review is shown under the reviews section for Falcon 2. It reads: "Falcon is an incredible synthesis playground for sound design, which has a super-powerful voice architecture that is extremely versatile. The sonic results are stunning, and it has become part of my permanent arsenal here at the studio!"

"We recently used all of the Sound Toys Plug-ins for our latest sound effects libraries for Sony Media. The Electronic Music Manuscript: A Richard Devine Collection was the first library we created. I started out by recording lots of odd acoustic sounds. I had my good friend Josh Kay help me with the recording and editing. We recorded everything from hand made water phones, Tibetan singing bowls, Space phones, to a completely destroyed 1920 Kurtzman grand piano. All the acoustic sounds would then be processed with Echoboy or PhaseMistress. I like the animation of sound that is possible with PhaseMistress. The LFO, Envelope Follower, and Rhythm mode became essential as percussion modeling effects. You can completely crush drum sounds and get some really odd phase shifting sounding effects.

FilterFreak was also crucial to making a lot of the filter processing. The envelope followers “Mutron-esque”, and ADSR section is amazing. The fact that you can automate and run in Rhythm mode, animating both frequency controls with exact precision is brilliant. It locks to MIDI so well. It was so cool to experiment with alternating filter types that would sweep into each other in a sometimes random sample and hold configuration.

The second library we created was called simply “Pulse”. This was a sample collection of analogue modular systems old and new. It turned out to be really interesting, and we used Phase Mistress in the Moogerfooger 12 stage setting to get some rich warm textures over our analogue recorded sounds. It complemented the sounds so well, that I used it on almost every sample that I created."

"Recording with an old friend tonight :-)"
