Lightfinger

Matthew 'Lightfinger' Hurtgen is an electronic musician who has been in love with music and technology for over 30 years. After studying sound engineering in college, he has gone on to work on many different audio projects; audio production, sound design, music supervision, DJing, remixing and live performance. He was a member of the band Silence Repellent, resident DJ at The Womb on Miami Beach (www.womb.tv), and has created ambient soundscapes for the Ultra Music Festival. He now lives in Los Angeles, California. He has worked for Novation as a tech support specialist for over five years. He also does graphic design, sculpture and whatever else he feels inspired to do!
All of Lightfinger’s patch collections have a wide variety of pads, basses, leads, keys and SFX that are suitable for most electronic genres. The patches have also been designed with a helpful, standardized layout for the Macro Settings. Filter Cutoff, Filter Resonance, Amp Release, Chorus and Distortion are always set to the same knobs so you know what they will do before you tweak them. Macros 5, 6 & 7 are ‘mystery macros’ that are programmed specifically for each patch and are carefully designed to create dynamic and interesting changes to the sound.
