Buchla Sketch #28

video upload by Oren Levy

"A drone for Jazzy Da Cat"

Modular synthesizer / complex oscillator / Buchla study

video upload by Daniel Mana - sound designer & composer

"The more I play the Buchla modular eurorack system the more I love with it and its complex oscillator.
The timbres and textures that these instrument can deliver are unique. I am sending vco pitch control from the Westlich Periformer that allows me to switch sequences very easily.

If you're into modular synthesizers, sound experimentation, or just want to relax with some avant-garde electronic music, this video is for you. 🎶

285t Tiptop Audio & Buchla

video upload by Stazma

"Today we dive into the last born of the 200t serie, the Frequency Shifter & Balanced Modulator Model 285t. I've never had a frequency shifter in hardware before (I use the Ableton one quite a bit tho) so it was a bit of challenge to get into it but I found a great article that helped me a bit on Signal / Perfect Circuit, go check it out: https://www.perfectcircuit.com/signal...

Many crazy weird stuff but also some very subbtle and nicce sounding stereo effect.

Have fun!!!"

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.

Tiptop/Buchla 200 Series | Episode 11 | 285t Frequency Shifter & Balanced Modulator

video upload by Cinematic Laboratory

"The 285t is a worthy addition to the already impressive classic 200 series by Tiptop Archeology and Buchla. It has two separate sections which can be combined at will. The top section is a frequency shifter with a built in reference VCO/LFO that can go up to 1K and allows modulation and FM. You can use your own reference sound by switching up to EXT but then you'll need to take care of FM and modulation yourself. The section can be used to play with the perceived pitch of any source, tuning it up and down at will. You can also use it (multed) to add an extra layer to a single voice, or to a mix.

The lower section is a classic ring modulator with a dedicated out, and a variable output that's under CV control. Variable mode can morph the effect from off to amplitude modulation (unipolar) to ring modulation (bipolar) which adds metallic effects. Ring modulation works best with sinewave modulators, but you can throw any combo of waveforms at it. It pairs very well with the 'simple' 258 VCO because it has two sinewaves, where the 259 has only one.

"Lots to like in this video. Cat cameos, out-of-focus objects from my yard and of course synthesizers. Even some guitar, if that's your thing. I had a lot of fun putting this one together.

Featuring Serge, Buchla and Eurorack modular synthesizers, a Cocoquantus2, Elektron Octatrack, Analog Four, a bunch of effects and all recorded/edited/mixed in Bitwig Studio."

Gm Xe Introduces AuraTie 4U Digital Effects Module

AuraTie 4U reverb vibrate delay Walk through video upload by Gm Xe

"The official announcement of the Auratie 4U stereo module.

AURATIE is a stereo digital effects module designed in Buchla voltage format, featuring dual-channel stereo output. It employs a Tini transfer switch that supports automatic switching between mono and stereo inputs. AURATIE aims to explore the extension of single tones into the stereo realm. It transforms simple sounds into expansive and reshaped experiences, making it particularly effective for designing drone soundscapes. The interaction between vibrate and delay creates unique feedback with different delays and frequency changes across the left and right channels. The reverb’s gritty design, combined with the vibrate interaction, allows for intriguing experimentation, enabling users to switch the positions of the two parts for further exploration."

"Strane forme
A little excerpt from a long session done this morning with the 259t. I absolutely love the amount of little variations you can get from this iconic module. The fact that it has ART on board makes it easier for me to manage some little things that are part of my language. I love it, period."
