Buchla 100 - The Complex Envelope


Published on Nov 7, 2013 DJjondent·210 videos

"Buchla 100 - Complex Envelope.

If you're wearing headphones keep the volume down as some of the frequencies are high.
Lots of preliminarily test sounds.

The term "complex envelope I believe was first coined by Morton Subotnick.

The basic patch uses just one oscillator (a 158) and four 180 attack generators.
I've added a 144 vco to this patch but the 158 still provides 90% of the sound.

A single tone (saw wave) from the 158 is fed into a 295 comb filter.
It's necessary to use a tone with lots of harmonics to give the filter
lots to work with.

I've added a 205 matrix mixer and a 281/292 combo for fun."
