OK so why am I selling this? A while back I invested in a Buchla Music Easel. Love it! But when it arrived, I noticed the keyboard had some discoloration. Given how much the thing cost, I was hoping for a more pristine specimen. So I called Buchla, and by some kinda miracle, they sent me a replacement keyboard. Switched them out, no prob.
I've been holding onto this first one for a while now. Was thinking I might eventually sell it as an extra bonus along with the music easel (if and when I do), but now I'm thinking it would be better off being used by someone rather than taking up space in my closet.
Score for you! A brand new and complete one of these is $1600! Now let's be clear, this IS NOT COMPLETE. It does not have the box/case, nor the power supply, or the knobs. Only what you see in the pics. It's more like getting the 218 clone kit, but preassembled. If you already have a Buchla Music Easel and want a replacement keyboard, this is perfect. If you want to build or acquire a case and power supply, you could turn this beauty into a stand alone keyboard.
What's wrong with it? Nothing! OK ok the one thing about it is that some of the keys have this spot where there is slight discoloration (see pics), but this does not effect the functionality at all. Strictly cosmetic. Funny thing is, if you play on these touch keyboards they will start to look worn after a while anyways, so no biggie."
"64-step sequence, two notes per step, from the Sub 37. Audio from Sub 37 and Model 15 by MOS-LAB is joined by the Vermona, which plays through Moogerfooger MuRF. All go through Strymon Big Sky. No presets. No other audio input."
"Impulsreihe climbed to #81 at the beatport techno album charts:) Here's another livesession of the EP with the track Wellenoperator.
The EP contains also awesome remixes by Di Rugerio, Tom Hutt and Beatamines.

"Kauldron is our warmest sounding, punchiest synth yet! A completely new modeling technology, combined with carefully designed features help you create aggressive synth sounds full of rich analog textures with the fewest knob tweaks. The result is a pure, head-on tone that requires little or no FX or post-production to sound big.
Kauldron pushes every available iOS technology to the max: it is not only fully universal (you can run it natively on your iPad and iPhone), but also an Audio Unit plugin. In fact, it is one of the first fullscreen AUv3 plugins for iOS: with iOS 11 and a compatible DAW, you can enjoy all the great Kauldron features on a nice, big spread.
Kauldron debuts the next generation of our Artificial Intelligence preset creation system, SPAWN². Completely reimagining the groundbreaking SPAWN algorithms in our hugely popular Magellan, the new SPAWN² gives you unprecedented control over generating presets. In the expert mode, you can accomplish anything from subtle ‘variations on a theme’ to bold new sounds. In the basic mode, where Kauldron does all the thinking, you get preset after usable preset with just a touch. This is not simple randomization: it is the power of machine learning put to benevolent use!
Kauldron is designed with modulation and fine dynamic control in mind. The two fully-featured LFOs and the mod envelope combine with a wide variety of MIDI learnable controls to manipulate multiple parameters. Everything is easily set up in a clearly laid out ‘mod matrix.’ The dual XY-pads can be used for controlling modulation or a wide range of synth parameters. MIDI aftertouch can be routed via the matrix for even greater control over expression and tonality.
Powerful arp with both live & program modes; comprehensive MIDI features with effortless MIDI learn; over 900 presets; recording, sharing, IAA, Audiobus 3, Ableton Link — these are just some of the features brewing inside Yonac’s Kauldron.

"Hi, I've tried a little House song with Ableton Push 2 & my new Nord Lead A1 to make a beat from scratch :)
As always, nothing pre-recorded. Hope you'll enjoy it !"
