5 "complex oscillator" tricks with the 258t & 257t - Buchla & Tiptop Audio

video upload by Stazma

"Support on Patreon to get samples from this session: https://www.patreon.com/join/stazma

Since the Buchla and Tiptop modules are in Eurorack format, there is now no separation between audio and control voltages like the 4U Buchla modules. So this let us (ab)use some of those modules to perform tasks they were not supposed to perform.

In this video I'll use the 257t, that is supposed to handle control voltages, to process audio rate signal only, combined with the 258t Dual VCO, to create some sort of a complex oscillator; or anyway something inspired by the modulation bus of the 259 module."

Buchla Tiptop 281t to Easel Command

video upload by Todd Barton

"One possible connection between the Buchla-Tiptop Audio 281t Quad Function Generator and the BuchaUSA 208c Easel Command using the UTL-1 Format Jumbler from Low-Gain. Clearly there are at least 10,000 more possibilities :-)"

Buchla 208c to Buchla Tiptop 281t 258t


"In my previous post used the Tiptop 281t to drive the 208c, this time I'm reversing the with the Buchla 208c pulser driving the 281t and different flavors of random voltages going to the 258t oscillators. Enjoy!"

Buchla / TipTop VCO 258T| QFG 281T | OXI One

video upload by verstaerker

"using the OXI One to sequence and modulate the 258T & 281T .
The Buchla VCO is really fantastic for FM tones, while the 281 creates complex, dynamic modulation.
Notice that the OXI is only connected thru a single HDMI cable, that is connected to the Pipe, from he the CV/Gate connection s to the modular are made. Thats realy smart.
At the end i routed the VCO through my Easel to get an LPG, with adding some distortion transformed the sound in a really interesting way .

An Update on Buchla & Tiptop Audio Including New Modules in the Works

via Tiptop Audio

"Hi everyone, 2023 is going to be interesting, we have plenty of things going on, so here is the mega update:

The 200t project moves forward full steam and we want to thank you for your support in 2022. We look forward to announcing later this year more of Don’s Buchla 200 series modules that are currently in development.

Up first is a new batch of 258t, 245t, 257t and 281t. These are going through final assembly steps and we expect to start shipping them to the shops very soon. We will start with the 258t, 245t and 257t this week, followed by the 281t toward mid/late March. As always, we are letting the shops know the quantity they will be getting so they can open up for additional pre-orders.

The electronic parts shortages haven’t eased yet and we are still experiencing limited supplies. Some of you folks have waited a long time for your order and these coming batches should be able to cover a good number of the back orders placed with the shops.

Stereo Patch From Scratch with Panic Girl featuring XPO, Buchla 258t Dual Oscillator and the Touché

video upload by Perfect Circuit

"Eurorack modular synthesizers are embracing stereo sound in new ways—over the last few years, we've seen a ton of stereo-oriented modules come out from top brands like Make Noise, SSF, and plenty more!

In this video, Panic Girl walks us through a stereo patch on her personal system, featuring the Make Noise XPO, Mimeophon, and the Tiptop Buchla 258t Dual Oscillator. This mix of mono and stereo modules makes a great learning ground for getting into the stereo mindset—so grab some headphones, tune in, and space out!

INTRECCI - MODULAR AMBIENT [PAM-CHAOS CLANK-PLAITS-ENOSC-258T ]

video upload by leonardoworx

"In this patch i played a lot with the amazing Chaos Clank and Pam's New Workout, in order to achieve an interaction between the MI Plaits, 4MS Ensemble Oscillator and TipTop/Buchla 258t.
A lot of modulations, generative sequences, happen in this ambient/meditative patch also with the addition of Instruo Ochd.

Hope you like!"

Buchla / Tiptop 200 Series | Episode 02 | A Deep Dive

video upload by Cinematic Laboratory

"I recently got a second 258T oscillator, all the way from Australia because they seem to be sold out anywhere else. Why? Because most Buchla designs feature a quad 'whatever' design and the 258T is 'only' dual. I could imagine a second one would open a lot more possibilities. And it did! I hope you'll have as much fun watching this video as I have working with these amazingly affordable little masterpieces. Thank you, TipTop & Buchla for bringing this to a wide audience!"

No external modulation or sequencing, just manual tweaking. sine wave carrier."

Buchla Tiptop Audio 258t Dual Oscillator

video upload by Todd Barton

"This is a mini-series on the basics of the new Buchla & Tiptop Audio modules. First up was the 281t Quad Function Generator now onto the 258t Dual Oscillator. I'm really enjoying these modules and Tiptop has enthusiastically embraced the Buchla paradigm. The oscillators are sounding great and squarely in the Buchla ballpark."
