Published on Jan 13, 2015 Modular Wild
"A demonstration of how to utilize the RF Nomad to produce different percussion sounds.Part One of Two.Sound and Video by Raul Pena.
Please Note: In the video I use the term gates to refer to the outputs of the 4MS RCD. In fact they are triggers I used instead, for an in-depth view on triggers and gates visit:

"Manufacturer Description:
This legendary and sought-after Buchla synthesizer from the 200 series will be produced again after 40 years. There are some minor changes here and there but in general it´s pretty much the same as the original. No MIDI inside but you get a really well-thought out semi-modular instrument with great sound and lots of possibilities due to well-arranged patch points. The small sequencer and the touch keyboard with integrated arpeggiatior invite to play the instrument directly and to interact with it.
Technical Details
At the first glance the Easel looks confusing because of the too many switches, faders and many sockests without legending but in the end everything makes sense and it's laid out very logically. The colors of sockets mostly match the function blocks of the Easel (purple = keyboard pressure, yellow = pulser, white = random, orange = envelope, blue = sequencer). The black sockets are CV inputs that are located always left of the according parameter. The sockets at the top of the unit have legending and are self-explaining. The position of most banana sockets below the faders has been chosen for the use of shorting bridges instead of patch cords which enhances clarity of your patch.

Tristan Perich "0.01s" Book & 1-Bit Symphony Electronic Instrument CD
Some pics of my newly arrived "0.01s" book & "1-Bit Symphony" CD from Tristan Perich.

Full details on the book release previously captured here. The book contains 635 pages of 1s and 0s. that cover cover the first 1/100th of a second of the 1-Bit Symphony CD. Think about that the next time you play your digital synth for a bit.
1-Bit music made its first appearance here on MATRIXSYNTH back on August 8, 2005, just over one month after MATRIXSYNTH in the current format started.When I put up that first post, the project brought a number of things to mind. One, CDs are digital recordings of audio. Here was a CD that generated audio through digital circuits. Being 1-bit also implied bringing the audio down to its most simplistic, elemental form. Digital synths are known for their complexity and variety, and typically, so is the audio recorded on CD. The 1-bit CD seemed to be an expression of simplicity by breaking down what we define as music and syntheses to its minute source. With the release of the book at 690 pages of 1s and 0s covering 10 milliseconds or a centisecond, you realize how much actually goes into it.
You'll find previous posts over the years on the 1-bit channel.
