Buchla Model 259e Complex Waveform Gen.

via this auction
"The Buchla Model 259e Complex Waveform Generator is the original incarnation of the 259e. The 259e is just that: complex. With 16 continuously modifiable AND blendable waveshapes, wavefolding, hard and soft sync, pitch tracking, linear FM, built-in LFO, cross-fade and full voltage control of all parameter, it is one of the most, if not most complex hardware oscillators ever built. The module is in excellent condition and is both physicially and electronically sound. The firmware memory card is included with this auction.. Other features include:

* voltage-controlled modulation of pitch, amplitude, and timbre, both hard and soft synchronization, and pitch tracking.
* in conjunction with the model 225e MIDI Manager, the 259e's pitches respond to internally routed MIDI messages. Up to four 259's can peacefully co-exist in a single system, each with its private MIDI channel.
* the settings of the 259e's pots and switches can be memorized as a part of a preset configuration. Provided you have a 225e or a 206e in your system."
