Buchla Complex Oscillator

In via AH:

"I've been gathering some bits for a web page on the Buchla Music Easel
which isn't done yet. However, I've posted an example of the complex
oscillator here:
http://www.alt-mode.com/buchla/sounds/Waveshape_Example.mp3

There are 9 sounds in this example. Each sound has the "timbre" swept
by the pulser. The sounds are in groups of three for each position of
the waveform switch (narrow pulse, square, and triangle). For each of
these waveforms, I recorded the sound with the waveshape knob fully
counter-clockwise (sine), 12 o'clock, and fully clockwise. [I hope that
made sense.] No filters were used in these examples at all and it is
just one oscillator!

Anyway, the complex oscillator in the Music Easel is like nothing else I
have ever heard. This basic example shows just some of the possibilities.
