Richard Devine'la Söyleşi

# www.elektron-users.com'un ana sayfasında Richard Devine ile bir söyleşi var. Kendisinin elektronik müzik bestekârı kimliğini zaten biliyorduk, ayrıca profesyönel bir ses dizayncısı olmuş. Oyunlara, belgesellere ses tasarlıyormuş.

How do the two processes, composing and sound designing, complement each other? Are they even two separate processes? For instance, when you sit down to work, do you approach the session as a "sound design" or "composition" session depending on your mood?
I look at both processes differently for different applications. When I work on sound design projects, it could be scoring sounds to a video game where I go in and create a palette of sounds that are design to be triggered by the user. ... So in that situation the process of sound design is only to have the sounds work in a single shot instance, and they should be unique to work on their own. In scoring to TV/Film I use sound design much differently. I term this as being what I call "musical" or "narrative" sound design. Where the sounds almost tell a story and work on a linear time line matched up with moving picture and the events happen in a very specific order. This is to me composing and this similar to how I compose some of my musical compositions.

# Elektron'un enstrumanlarını kullanmaya nasıl başladığı sorulduğundaysa, Autechre'da gördüm kıskandım diyor :-)

I was playing a gig with Speedy-J and Autechre in Amsterdam at the 5-days off festival in December of 2005. I was doing sound check and Sean from Autechre was there setting up. I noticed that he had the MachineDrum and MonoMachine setup on the table for Autechre’s sound check. I was curious and inquired about the silver boxes. I was interested because they decided not to use any computers for the gig that night but work solely with the MD and MM. I was already thinking of going back to hardware interfaces at that time for my live show, so it was perfect timing. As soon as I returned home I bought both of them.
