Buchla 250e as cv recorder, sample/hold style

"Demo of technique using the 250e to record cv being fed in externally by using 'Fix', an idea @boobtube356 (aka dougcl) suggested, which works quite well! Fix, it turns out, is a little different than the other buttons on the 250e in that it can be hit on the fly without the stage needing to be in edit mode, so you can just hold it down as it goes through the cycle to fix or unfix a stage. Once a stage is flipped into a fixed state, it needs to be unfixed if you want to try fixing another voltage, it won't just keep changing as it goes around and around. For some reason doing the vid it wasn't holding onto the 'time' when I tried that, but I swear it was last night! will look into that. anyway, pretty fun, lots of possibilities, like I still haven't played with this using strobe or continuous, and that is bound to be cool too, and doug was talking about using it in conjunction with another 250e or 251e, which kind of make my mind reel. need to try using it with numerology feeding in the cv too."
