Easel with Benjolin Percussion

"Just a quick exploration of using the Buchla Music Easel's Sequential Voltage Source's CV output to the Benjolin's A section to create percussive sounds. Better audio here:"

Music by ANGLE & JOAO CESER

Actress: Denise Luzzi

QuantiZer is a creative melody composing module that uses cutting edge analog electronics and DSP to tune analog VCOs precisely into Western musical scales.

The front panel is packed with functions that makes it very playable and intuitive to use, with a layout that moves forward from the typical quantizer design.

At its center is a slider that can be set to play notes, add Portamento to an incoming sequence, transpose a sequence with in an octave range or transpose a sequence with in 5 octave range.

The 12 note keyboard can be set to play notes manually, add and subtract notes from scales, transpose a sequence as well as setup a variety of settings that define the quantizer behavior and sync with other modules.

Major and Minor keys are both built in to let you switch scales in a very playable way, making it pretty easy to explore musical progression. There are also 24 user scales ready to be filled up with your own custom scales.

A built in sketch pad records and plays back keys entered manually on the keyboard and slider in sync with external clock and reset signal, or Tiptop’s SyncBus which chains the QuantiZer recording function to the Circadian Rhythms time line for precise recording and playback.

Scale CV in can be set to switch between changing scales or transposing pitches using CV from sequencers.

Quantization can be set for free run or Trigger mode for even more interesting ways to interact with external sequencers.

Quantizer sets a new performance standard for Eurorack that offers incredibly stable CV quantization minimizing glitches on input, utilizes high precision temperature compensated 1V/Oct CV generation on output and features stunning conversion latency of less than half a millisecond.

QuantiZer can be set to process a wide variety of CV voltage input ranges, +/-5V CV from LFOs, bi-polar envelopes and such, or 0-10V / 0-5V standard CV from sequencers.

Continuing the tradition of advanced Tiptop digital modules, the QuantiZer Firmware running the digital brain is upgradeable via a USB thumb drive interface at its back allowing for continuous improvement and fine tuning of function and stability over time.

"Cosmetic condition: MINT. This is like your grandma's 1964 impala that she only pulled out on weekends to cruise.

Working condition: Works amazingly well for the age, but would benefit from servicing. Some of the caps on the draw bars are lightly dirty. Keys are not level; at the worst, they're about 3/16" off from each other (see photos). The keys, from octave to octave, are slightly off from each other."

Sequential Circuits Prophet 5 3.2 W/Midi

"The condition is excellent for the age. There are some minor scuffs around the wooden edges which are typical for a synth of this age.

As far as I can tell everything is working to the best of my knowledge. That is to say all 5 voices are in tune and play accordingly. Both oscillators and all wave shapes are working on all voices. The envelopes generators fire correctly. LFO is good too.
Filters sound juicy and gorgeous. The keyboard is in excellent shape. The middle c note occasionally double triggers but this fixes itself after a few presses (the contactt likely has dust on it and needs a clean). All the buttons and pots are working correctly. The output sound is clean. Memory storage is good.

This unit had Midi installed which makes it a 3.2. The battery was replaced recently.
The internals are in excellent condition with little sign of corrosion or wear."
