MEMS Prototype Of The Buchla Location Voltage Processor

video upload by Source Of Uncertainty

"The 223 Location Voltage Processor is intended to be used with the 227 System Interface Module in a quad setup. It contains four separate voltage controlled processors that output an X and a Y voltage for the 227 assign inputs. The top row of knobs defines the operating range by adjusting the baseline of operation. The Balance adjusts the left to right panning. The Cross-Pan controls row modifies both the X and Y outputs and the exact function changes with the setting of the Balance control. These controls are described in more detail under Operations below."

excerpt of Don Buchla's arrangement of Terry Riley InC as implemented by Joel Davel in 1993

video upload by Joel Davel

"This was an element of my first project with Don Buchla. The graphics and MIDI sequencing was programmed in HMSL-Forth. (Heirarchical Music Specification Language) and J-Forth that controlled two graphic sprites on an Amiga 3000 computer. The sprites act like two computer mouses, but they are controlled by two independent Buchla Lightning wands. This was installed at the Exploratorium Museum in San Francisco in 1993-1994 for two participants to drag instruments onto the phrases as they appear."

Buchla Ziggy Desktop Synth Patch at Superbooth 2026

video upload by Insect O.

"A spontaneous random session with the new Buchla Ziggy desktop synthesizer at Superbooth 2026 in Berlin. Exploring generative textures, experimental modulation, evolving sequences and raw Buchla sound design. The sound I´m tweaking is just from a preset.

The Ziggy is a standalone desktop synthesizer inspired by classic analog complex oscillators, featuring low pass gates, cycler modulation, built-in effects, and preset storage.'

Superbooth 2026 Highlights | Voltage Labs

video upload by Voltage Labs

"This year at Superbooth, we found some seriously inspiring instruments - here are a few of our highlights. Soma showed one of the most forward-thinking instruments we came across, with a truly unique interface. Richie Hawtin and Erica Synths introduced the latest Bullfrog edition: Drums.
Buchla also caught our attention with Ziggy a compact new take on their iconic West Coast sound.
Polyend is aiming high with their new analog-digital hybrid drum machine, possibly their most ambitious project yet. And one of the most fascinating discoveries for us was Tembo: a wooden drum synthesizer that looks beautiful and sounds unlike anything else.

Interesting bits and pieces:

"Buchla’s Ziggy is one of the standout synth announcements surrounding this year’s Superbooth 2026, distilling the company’s famously expensive West Coast philosophy into a compact desktop instrument priced at just under $1000. Combining analog complex oscillators, low-pass gates and wavefolding with modern digital control, presets and effects, Ziggy positions itself as the most approachable and portable Buchla synthesizer to date."
