Lecture Session with Don Buchla

"You all know about the Moog. But what about Don Buchla, the Californian synthesizer designer whose Buchla Series 100 was released mere months after Dr. Bob's first synth? His electronic music equipment company, Buchla and Associates, were commissioned by avantgarde composers Morton Subotnik and Ramon Sender to create something they could use in live performance - and since then he's been creating and designing a whole range of unusual electro-acoustic instruments and deeply desirable modular synths. That includes the intruiging Marimba Lumina, the classic 1970 200 Series Electric Music Box or indeed the hot little analogue cutie, 1972's Music Easel. Buchla's sonic toys combine a colourful aesthetic with supernatural sonic abilities. Genius alert!"
You can find the podcast interview on Red Bull Music Academy. via Ghostdog.
Update: also see Don Buchla - Passing The Acid Test where you can find the transcript and video of this (368K link).
BTW, you can search for some of the instruments Don Buchla mentions, including the Musical Telegraph, the Telharmonium, the Sal Mar, and more here on the top lef of the site.

Conn Electric Band

"Rare 1973 Conn Electric Band... It had some real low end on the sub selector. Great cheesy drum beats. Ranges from Waltz to Teen beat. Great preset sounds like Harpsichord, Space Junk, and Blast Off. Also has an adjustable section. This thing was used on the Moog Cookbook and you can find sound clips of it on the internet. It has 2 great reverbs as well. It weighs a ton."
