The Noise You Never Hear

It was almost silent in the room but there was so much going on under the quiet. I made this library as an homage to the angels in the wires making all the noise you never hear. 

Using an EMF recorder, I recorded the electromagnetic fields around various devices; hospital equipment, computers, phones, power supplies and random other electronics. Then I used a Pultec-style EQ to attenuate or boost frequencies to taste. The sounds are very irregular and don't sound like a traditional synth. They whir and hum and crackle and drone in their own weird way. There's a surprising amount of variety in what's hiding in an otherwise soundless room.

There are sixteen controls in four columns:

Envelope - Attack, Sustain, Decay, Release

Filter - High Pass, Low Pass, Reduce, Degrade

Drive - Tape Sat, Punch, Push, Limit

Space - Verb, Delay Time, Repeats, Delay Vol

Mod wheel makes an additional jitter with three random LFO’s. Pitch bend is volume.
