Malekko Wiard Borg 2 Filter (Black)

via this auction
"The Borg Filter – A hybrid of Buchlas Lowpass Gate 292 und and the high-/lowpass filter of the Korg MS 20 (but without individual controls for resonance and cutoff) is a very interesting and aggressive filter which can be used as a VCA as well.
Did we already mention the Borg 2 is a true sub-bass monster and you can generate huge bassdrums with it?

Differences between Borg1 and Borg2:
The Borg 2 has black knobs.
It is the same as the original Wiard 1200 series FracRak module. It´s very aggressive, has a shorter decay time and sounds more brilliant.

Technical details:
The peaking control determines the resonance but also acts as a switch between filter or VCA. The resonance is strong and the filter self-oscillates very fast. A further control blends from low- over band- to highpass mode.
Because of the slow and inert Vacrols used in the circuit it is quite impossible to modulate the cutoff frequency with fast CV signals.

Inputs and outputs:
2x Audio IN
2x Audio OUT
2x CV IN (key in = 1V/oct)
1x CV OUT

Measures and weight:
3U Eurorack module, module width 12HP"

The Aching Void - M-Audio Venom Demo by Khoral

via Cafe 80

"Another improvisation on the Venom.
Some nasty high frequencies here and there : that's one nicely unpredictable instrument!
As for the previous track, all Venom, no external drums."

58 Buchla Melodies and Waves

YouTube Uploaded by 7thDanSound on Mar 31, 2011

"This is a quick test of using the Buchla 259e and Verbos 258v for melodic purposes. They are driven by an Elektron MonoMachine via a Kenton Pro Solo MIDI-CV unit. Then the MonoMachine acts as gate and adds a little effects to the 259e (delay) and filtering to the 258v. But just a little. I think I got pretty decent results even with heavy modulation and when using the mem/skew wavetables."
