3/1/25 Buchla 295m 258d 281 292r + JRB VCBF + Magnetic Freak Gaussian + Peavey DDL-3 + CXM 1978

"3/1/25 Buchla 295m 258d 281 292r + JRB VCBF + Magnetic Freak Gaussian + Peavey DDL-3 + CXM 1978

In this video, four envelopes on the Buchla 281 quad function generator are providing control voltages and triggers to the Magnetic Freak Gaussian, the Buchla 292r lopass gate, the JRB VCBF bandpass filter, and to the Buchla 258d oscillators. The 258d square is FMing the sawtooth oscillator, which runs through the M.E.M.S. clone of the Buchla 295. Three of the individual band outputs on the 295m are patched into the audio inputs on the 292r, with the 295m mix output patched to the Mackie Onyx 1640 mixer, panned center. The mix output on the 295m is patched to the JRB VCBF, which runs through the Peavey DDL-3 digital delay, with the DDL-3 dry output panned right and the wet output panned left on the Mackie. All of the signals get reverb blended on the CXM 1978."

Boolean Logic Latched - Patch 01 BugBrand DRM2 Drums

video upload by Precarious333 Music

"Magnetic Freak's Boolean Logic Latched is a Buchla format module featuring a clock divider and 7 logic circuits with switchable mode functionality and unique latching capabilities. Logic is hard to find in Buchla land, and as a fan I'm happy to announce its arrival. This simple patch barely scratches the surface of BLL's potential. It's more an introduction to the most basic uses of logic gates. But make no mistake, Boolean Logic Latched will be at the center of every patch I make from this point on. Intended as a companion module to Magnetic Freak's Gaussian I will endeavor to explore that companionship in videos to come. Time is short but the potentials are endless. Thus is life.

In this patch I'm using a clock from Buchla 246 into BLL's clock divider, then combining different divisions to trigger a kick/snare duo created by two of BugBrand's fantastic DRM2 analog drum voices. Simple origins lead to complex results. Everything you hear stems from that single clock input. I'm only making use of 3 of BLL's 7 logic circuits, none of its latching gates, so just a fraction of its capabilities.

Recorded as 2 tracks into Ableton Live. Compression and effects added in post."

'This is clearly the companion module of the Gaussian to generate rhythmic patterns and much more. It can nevertheless be used alone to build up complex IDM (Intelligent Dance Music) rhythmic patterns from a single ticking clock. Two stages of Boolean logic operators are cascaded allowing all kinds of operations between the incoming signals.

The latching function let you use a dedicated clock to latch the status of all gates on the arrival of a trigger signal up to the new one (or using the push button). It could be used to re-synchronises random signals. This module is fully analog and can work up to audio rates with no latency.

These modules are only produced in very small batches for connoisseurs."

First patches with the Magnetic Freak Gaussian for Eurorack. Lots of fun polyrhythmic goodness coming out of this thing. #eurorack #modularsynth #magneticfreak pic.twitter.com/y4gshigRSM

"the GAUSSIAN generator.

This device is a fully controllable random signal generator and a powerful CV processor.

The development has started three years ago, when working on the simulation of CERN particles beam using gaussian distributions. The natural shape of this distribution and the random sampling process associated with it, make it a unique tool. Providing your modular synth wilder paths to explore."
