Tiptop Audios 285t Eurorack Format Buchla Module Makes Its Official Release



via Tiptop Audio

"Another legend from 1971 is making a comeback today! The Buchla and Tiptop Audio Model 285t Frequency Shifter is now shipping. Priced at $285, the module is available for pre-order through our dealers and will begin shipping shortly.

The theory of shifting frequencies using analog multipliers was first invented in the early 1900s. However, in 1971, Don Buchla took this concept and explored how it could interact with the audio signals of his modular synthesizer. By combining it with a balanced modulator into a single module, he likely created one of the world's first analog audio effect processor modules."

You can find demos of the 285t in previous posts here, including a couple that went up today. As always, check with the dealers on the right for availability.
