I have some hardware now and, amongst other hobbies, am slowly getting back into it. I have some elsewhere but the youtube stuff was mostly 'max/msp' oriented. Then you have people without the knowledge to back it up saying that this is absolutely not made by Autechre, when if you actually read the whole Max/msp thread on cycling 74 its authenticity is established several times, even not denied by Sean Booth who comes into the thread himself to join the discussion. So you have 2 things happening here, a cycling 74 forum thread about the morality surrounding leaking a 'secret' patch by an artist, when the patch was actually given out to a class that anybody with $200 could have taken in the san francisco area. The teacher didn't say 'hey guys don't put this on the net' so i felt it was my duty to share it and let people reverse engineer a very very small portion of trademark Autechre sounds made by Autechre themselves. I know because unless the teacher of the workshop lied (one of main programmers for max/msp) this was a patch privately given to him by Sean.

There seem to be a few Cycling 74 forum members very intent on re-writing history of being in denial. I love that the youtube tutorial maker got intimidated by a totally misinformed douche in the youtube comments and back peddled on it being actually AE. Powmod aka John Hidalgo Barnes is a friend of mine, who when i leaked this patch from said max/msp workshop i sent it to him and asked 'do you know how the hell this thing works?' all he did to modify it was put a clock control and a mixer on it to turn down the individual layers. LOL! this is great, haha someone on the Cycling '74 forums tried to cover up the fact that this was a patch leaked from a small Max/msp workshop by Autechred.
