Analogue Microcosm

Sound Pack

What is ANALOGUE MICROCOSM?

ANALOGUE MICROCOSM is an intricate arsenal of unique analogue sounds by legendary sound designer and producer, Richard Devine.

In Richard Devine’s words:

“I tried to make these sounds very fluid and expressive. Alien and and organic come to mind. I wanted to design these sounds without the use of computer software or plug-ins. I hope it inspires everyone to make some cool music with it.”
