Buchla Model 272e POLYPHONIC TUNER

The official product image and description via Buchla. You might remember this one from this NAMM post with video.

"4 stereo F.M.tuners, each with voltage controlled tuning and separate audio outputs. The 272e features a common station memory and a polyphonic output with individual envelope generators. Station tuning tables may be loaded automatically, particularly handy for the traveling musician.

A remote switch is provided to permit storing the settings of the 272e as a portion of a preset, as well as to retreive presets. A model 206e or 225e Preset Manager is necessary to accomplish this function."

Interaction with this space allows users to control and play virtual synthesizers using nothing but a Microsoft Kinect as the controller. In this video Mark Mosher interviews Tim who offers a behind-the-scenes look at the technology. At the end of the video Mark gives MultiMultitouchTouch a try.
