The weblog of Vlad Spears: musician, science fiction hero, Max/MSP/Jitter gangsta, Daevl incarnate. Currently engaged in fast action on slow sculpture, I have an ongoing love affair with animism as an approach to creativity and an affinity for all things automata, gridded or digital.

Ear break time.  I’m tweaking and freaking before the mix-down of my contribution to Logickal‘s upcoming podcast featuring the music of Daevl.Plug users, and it is good to be back in black.  The push to get the Daevlmakr business framework and Daevl.Plugs up, running and online required burning the candle at both ends plus the middle, and left little time for making music.

The track I’m working on, Miracles, has Daevl.Plugs on every channel, including some with multiples chained up for transmogrification squared, cubed or quad.

Two Daevl.Plugs shown with Live's default VST interfaces.

This is my first time fully working a track with the Daevl.Plugs, start to finish… and I’m so pleased with what I’ve wrought.  These plug-ins have evolved and refined to such an extent they’re now virtually unrecognizable as related to the ragged collection of eccentric Max/MSP patches which formed their foundation.

They turned out better than I realized!
