I can't find the Devine Presets on my MODX8. I'm I the only one? Do I have to update the firmware? Thanks

"Devine Presets" isn't much to go on.

I assume you mean Presets Richard Devine uses. This is something you'll have to ask him if there's a video or album or show where you've heard him use something you may think is a preset.

Then there's Soundmondo. Richard has contributed some work to Soundmondo - you can search for ones he has submitted. See this article for Montage: https://www.yamahasynth.com/montage-category/soundmondo-for-montage-ios

The part at the end mentions:

Want to check out the custom MONTAGE Performances sound designer and electronic artist Richard Devine used during his amazing Superbooth18 live shows? Type in “Richard Devine” in the search field and download them!

Here's one that is said to be a Richard Devine Performance on Soundmondo:

There are more for Montage. I'm not sure if Soundmondo translates Montage Performances for MODX or not. Haven't tried it.

Presets in MODX cannot be searched by author. You'll have to glean which Presets Richard Devine created by watching youtube videos or possibly reading articles.

"FM Spiral" (Probably "FM Spiral Dist" ) - not 100% clear which of the spiralizer presets he's referring to (there's only a couple - try them and decide for yourself), "FM Lullaby AF1&2", "FM Landscapes", "Isle Of Skye", "FM Techre"

... and so on. Just watching the video and writing down what he says are his Presets.

As a side note - I have requested for Performance documentation which includes "notes from the author" since the original programmer has the best idea of what can be done. The Performance audition is the audio version of this document (and watching controllers move as somewhat of the control documentation). It would be nice to have a paper document which goes through which controllers can be used since not all have an LED or GUI indicator showing you they are moving. And notes from the author would document who did the preset which could be searched within the document. This was deemed too daunting of a task to accomplish.

Soundmondo translates MONTAGE and MODX Performances - it will auto sense your instrument and deliver the data to your instrument’s Edit Buffer. Tons of Richard’s stuff up on Soundmondo! Just search his name!
