Waveshaping in Buchlas - Timbre & Digital Nonlinear Waveshaping

video upload by Shasta Cults

Above: Shasta Cults - Buchla 700 - wave shape editor

For those interested The Buchla Archives have an extensive article on wave shaping in buchlas here: https://www.buchlaarchives.com/blog/timbre-digital-nonlinear-waveshaping.

Opening paragaph:

"Ask most modern modular synthesizer enthusiasts about the hallmark characteristics of Donald Buchla's instruments: no doubt, one of the first things they'll mention is the idea of a 'complex oscillator.' Today—generally speaking—the term 'complex oscillator' refers to a general synthesis structure typically composed of two oscillators, a waveshaper, and various forms of inter-oscillator modulation. Typically, one oscillator is treated as a 'primary' or “principal” oscillator, and the other as a 'modulator.' The primary oscillator's sine wave output is typically hardwired to the waveshaping section, which provides a series of controls for continuously altering the waveshape/sonic character of the sound. The modulator usually has the ability to modulate the primary oscillator's frequency, amplitude, and aspects of the waveshaping process."

BUCHLA MUSIC EASEL - "ENSO" - DONNACHA COSTELLO COVER #ambient #buchla #electronicmusic

video upload by THAMEL

"This very piece of music, more than any other, hooked me on the Buchla Music Easel.
It's taken from Donnacha's album 'Stay perfectly still', wich is an amazing testimony of what the Easel can achieve on it's own.
Here is my modest take on it.
The Easel became my favorite electronic instrument since day one when I bought one late 2017.
Maybe the only synth I really need.
This is a live take, the first one.
With a Boss DD5, a Strymon Blue Sky and Elektron Analog Heat.
Footage: Dansk Arkitektur Center, Copenhagen, Denmark, June 2024.

Please enjoy on your favorite headphones or speakers.
You can find my music here on Bandcamp:

Thank you for listening."

Two 245t & the 257t | Buchla & Tiptop Audio Tips & Tricks

video upload by Stazma

"Hello there!
Today I'll show some cool stuff you can do if you have two 245t, or any other two analog sequencer and a 257t or any other voltage controller crossfader.
Some support from outside the Tiptop range with a Bard Quartet from ‪@ShakmatModular‬ to quantize our sequences.
Have fun!"

"Often when starting to explore the sonic possibilities of an instrument sooner or later a picture comes to mind that fits the sounds I’m designing.

This time I was transported to the sea, with tiny sea creatures helping to create the sounds you’re hearing. Do you also see images when you’re creating or exploring sounds?

Thanks for sticking with me!"

H90 Modular Love: Quadravox Modulation

video upload by Oren Levy

"A synth patch using an ‪@EventideAudio‬ H90 to transform a sequenced sine wave into a chord sequence.
Various parts of the patch are modulated with analog CV from the synthesizer. Those CVs get converted to MIDI CC using the ‪@Befacosynth‬ CV thing and fed into the H90."
