Tiptop Audio Buchla 200t Sound Demo

video upload by Station 252

"Buchla and Tiptop Audio 200t series workout.

Exploring Dual Oscillator Model 258t and Quad Function Generator Model 281t sound capabilities while recording my new EP. I was curious how the sound and response of those two modules will fit into my music and at the same time going into territories I wouldn't normally go to out of curiosity.

I've used a bunch of additional modules as my patches grew to hear how 200t modules fit with other eurorack modules and to keep everything in context, those where:

Modulation Mix

Modulation Mix from Station 252 on Vimeo.

"Mixing two Z4000 envelopes and an LFO with the top section of MixZ mixer module into the FM input on the Z2040 filter module to change the groove of the bass line.

MixZ:

Ch.1 - short envelope that is visible in the Mantis triggered with the same trigger as the VCA envelope (located in the skiff). I’m modulating release with one of the outs of doepfer LFO

Ch.3 - inverted envelope triggered on 1 and 5 (off screen in the Station 252 case)

Ch.4 - Doepfer LFO (also in the station 252)

Voice: 2x Tiptop Audio Z3000. One FM’ing the other while being hard sync’d to it > Tiptop Fold Processor > Z2040

Simple tiptop drum pattern for context:

Tiptop Audio VCA - AM - Amplitude Modulation

Published on Mar 4, 2019 Station 252

"Running a simple sequence from Z8000 via QuantiZer into two Z3000 oscillators, one is going into VCA input and the other one into VCA control voltage input. Forbidden Planet after the VCA for some additional processing on especially rich sounds."

I really need two more Forbidden Planets

I really need two more Forbidden Planets from Station 252 on Vimeo.

"I re-organized my live system to integrate the 3 three Tiptop Audio Forbidden Planet filters into it, All 3 are in High Pass mode and are replacing some other filter I had. Why? because Forbidden Plant's High Pass filter sounds absolutely great on anything I put through it. The only problem now is I need two more as I have 5 high pass and 3 low pass filters in the current patch.
