Sequencer

LDM - ADD

The device consists of 8 note sequencers with individual controls for grow mode, step size, minimum and maximum sequence length, growth amount, hold, and probability. It also includes the option to freeze specific sequences to prevent changes. Global controls allow us to set swing amount to loosen up midi timing and note pitches can be set using a scale selection.

Audio Effects

Ned Rush - Function Suite

Different from many standard audio effects with built in modulation capabilities like LFO’s or envelope generators, the Function allows you to draw in complex custom modulation shapes or multi-stage envelopes, which can then be indexed using a variety of signals, producing linear and non-linear modulations, designed to create interesting forms of movement.

Sampler

Coalescence, your compact Max for Live instrument, redefines sampling through cutting-edge concatenative techniques and machine learning.  Three Playback Modes – Point, Rings, Paths Neural Network – Cluster Visualisation, Training Options, Flexible Transient Use External Audio Input – Dynamic Modulations, Envelopes and Pitch Detection .

How Music Works

Drawing on his own work over the years with Talking Heads, Brian Eno, and his myriad collaborators - along with journeys to Wagnerian opera houses, African villages, and anywhere music exists - Byrne shows how music emerges from cultural circumstance as much as individual creativity.

Musicophilia

Compassionate tales of people struggling to adapt to different neurological conditions have fundamentally changed the way we think of our own minds. In Musicophilia, he examines the powers of music through the individual experiences of patients, musicians and everyday people.

Audyssey AVE

Gavin has been on a personal journey to understand how science, mental clarity & 'clean' creativity influences our ability to increase performance, focus and originality.

Music and the mind

Electronic music combined with stroboscopic light helps support the reduction of perceived stress in the creative sector. 

The experience of audio visual entrainment is a symphony of light, colour, and sound that transcends the ordinary and takes the listener on a journey of the senses. The mind begins to awaken, shedding the burden of everyday concerns and opening itself to new realms of experience.

Chris from Audeze, Feel Good Studios, Leeds.

Testimonials

Research clients share their experiences with Audio Visual Entrainment

Lucía Verde

"I loved my sessions with Audyssey in Ibiza"
As a legal consultant for the music industry work can be stressful, so learning how to quiet the mind with audio visual entrainment has given me a whole new prospective on meditation and mind observation.

Thanks to Gavin and his amazing work with light, sound and vibration.

Ian Owen

"The power of sound and light"
I was in the army for 13 years and suffer from P.T.S.D, I tried many different therapies but nothing seemed to work effectively.
As a music producer and DJ in Ibiza I wanted to try and see if A.V.E could help and I am very happy to say it has tremendously.

Michelle Ings

"I can see the light"

I have always been interested in the way the brain operates and feel this is a front row seat to the mysteries of the mind.

This has helped me so much with physical and mental blockages, it's the most content I have felt for years. Thanks to Gavin who is evidently passionate about his work with A.V.E and I can see why.

Audio-Visual-Brainwave Entrainment, electronic music and mindfulness.

Audio visual entrainment (AVE) and mindfulness are powerful tools for relaxation and well-being that are gaining increasing popularity in the healthcare and wellness sectors. AVE involves the use of light and sound stimuli to alter brainwave patterns, while mindfulness involves bringing one's attention to the present moment with an open and non-judgmental attitude. These practices have been shown to be effective in reducing stress related conditions, improving focus and concentration, and supporting overall well-being.
