Welcome Thanks for purchasing LOOP EXPANSION - DEVINE. We hope you enjoying using this loop expansion. LOOP EXPANSION - DEVINE USER GUIDE - PAGE "4 Table of Contents Loop Expansions are sample libraries of 128 loops, made by world class musicians and sound designers specifically designed for use with ULTRALOOP. You can use the Snapshots and Loops at any BPM inside ULTRALOOP. In addition to ULTRALOOP snapshots and sounds, Loop Expansions come with standard .WAV files which can be used with any program that accepts WAVs, such as Ableton, Logic or your favorite Twisted Tools products. As an ULTRALOOP user you can use the included snapshots with the loops they were designed for, but the snapshots alone can also be a great starting point to inject new life into your own loop content. You can use the Snapshots and Loops at any BPM inside ULTRALOOP. You made need to adjust the BPM range setting using ULTRALOOP’S BPM tab. FOR MORE EXPANSIONS VISIT: http://twistedtools/shop/loops/ Have fun! Twisted Tools 1.1. Product Description The DEVINE Loop Expansion pack features 128 Glitch Hop and Breaks loops by sound design legend, RICHARD DEVINE. At a tempo of 120BPM, these loops are just what you need to craft funky breaks and glitch hop beats, but can be used at a variety of tempos. The expansion features 128 hand-crafted ULTRALOOP snapshots to instantly get you started generating new grooves, variations and song ideas. With the ULTRALOOP expansion bank, 128 loops become hundreds more in no-time. In Richard Devine’s words: “I used only physical modeling and analog synthesis to create the sounds which were from a collection of drum machines and synths here at my studio. I primarily designed the loops to use in my live show with my modular. I wanted to create a fun collection of loops that would blend in well with my modular patches, and this worked out best for that in that everything is synthesized.” ! ! ! !

    BEAUTIFUL NOISE Directions in Electronic Music www.ele-mental.org/beautifulnoise/ A WORK IN PROGRESS (3rd rev., Oct 2003) Comments to [email protected] 1 A Few Antecedents The Age of Inventions The 1800s produce a whole series of inventions that set the stage for the creation of electronic music, including the telegraph (1839), the telephone (1876), the phonograph (1877), and many others. Many of the early electronic instruments come about by accident: Elisha Gray’s ‘musical telegraph’ (1876) is an extension of his research into telephone technology; William Du Bois Duddell’s ‘singing arc’ (1899) is an accidental discovery made from the sounds of electric street lights. “The musical telegraph” Elisha Gray’s interesting instrument, 1876 The Telharmonium Thaddeus Cahill's telharmonium (aka the dynamophone) is the most important of the early electronic instruments. Its first public performance is given in Massachusetts in 1906. It is later moved to NYC in the hopes of providing soothing electronic music to area homes, restaurants, and theatres. However, the enormous size, cost, and weight of the instrument (it weighed 200 tons and occupied an entire warehouse), not to mention its interference of local phone service, ensure the telharmonium’s swift demise. Telharmonic Hall No recordings of the instrument survive, but some of Cahill’s 200-ton experiment in canned music, ca. 1910 its principles are later incorporated into the Hammond organ. More importantly, Cahill’s idea of ‘canned music,’ later taken up by Muzak in the 1960s and more recent cable-style systems, is now an inescapable feature of the contemporary landscape.

The AAIM system makes no attempt to generate new materials in one particular style, nor to act as an autonomous improviser. Instead, the goal of the AAIM sys- tem is to facilitate improvisation through the variation and manipulation of composed materials entered by the user. By generating these variations algorithmically, the system gives improvisers of computer music the ability to focus on macro elements of their performances, such as form, phrasing, texture, spatialisation, and timbre, while still enabling them to incorporate the rhythmic and melodic variations of a virtuosic instrumental improviser.
