"My first impressions of a Buchla 200e.

At times it kinda sounds like a Ducatti. :-)

Using just 3 modules:
261e - Complex Waveform Generator
281e - Quad function generator
292e - Quad Dynamics Manager

The 261e - The Complex Waveform Generator consists of 2 VCos (modulation & principal oscillators).
The principal oscillator appears to only generate sine waves.... freq varying from 27 to 7040Hz.
The modulation Osc has 2 ranges: 27 - 7040HZ (audio range) & .25 - 64Hz (sub-audio).

The 281e - Quad function generator - These appear to be a very complex set of envelope generators.
Can be organised into pairs.

The 292e - Dynamics Manager - Buchla's answer to the VCA but also appears to act like a Low Pass Filter."
