Sound Character and Preset Categories

The bank covers a wide spread of sounds. Richard Devine uses the String Studio VS-3 to build elaborate textures, from pads and atmospheric ambiences to plucked and keyed tones, percussive hits and effect sounds.

The eight categories make the collection easy to browse. Arpeggiator presets give rhythmic, moving patterns, while the Percussion and Effect groups offer sounds that work outside the usual melodic role. The developer describes the set as an eclectic mix of modern sci-fi territories and exotic instruments.

Designer Background and Who It Suits

Richard Devine is an Atlanta-based artist and sound designer who has released five albums, scored TV and film, and created sound design for video games. He has also programmed synthesis for major audio companies and released his own sound effect libraries with Sony Creative Software.

Harmonic Geometry suits producers who already own String Studio VS-3 and want ready-made sounds from a designer with a clear style, or who need sci-fi, ambient and effect textures for film, game or electronic production.
