Behringer Introduces the Abacus Modeled on the Buchla 257 and 281 / Make Noise Maths



Compare to Make Noise Maths

"Buchla's legendary 257 and 281 analog synthesizers are considered classics of their genre, implemented in a wide range of musical applications. The Behringer ABACUS is modeled after these original instruments, featuring an array of linear, logarithmic and exponential triggered or continuous functions.

List price: $99 (in stock and immediately shipping from our factory)

Modulate and Push the Tempo
The ABACUS can generate musical envelopes or LFO signals up to 25 minutes in length and as fast as 1 kHz. Designed for use with other modules, it also allows you to change the modulation depth, modulate backwards and create even more musical events by manipulating tempo.

Unlimited Creativity
By manipulating the ABACUS’ control knobs, incoming signals can be an amplified, attenuated, integrated or inverted for unlimited creativity. Totally unique and crazy warped effects like lag, slew or portamento can be applied to control voltages perfect for use with a sequencer, or synth keyboard. Up to 4 control voltages can be combined to generate even more complex modulations."

Loscha Opens up a Pollard Syndrum Quad!


video upload by Edward Jones

"This is going to be a long restoration!

The drum triggers go into the unit on a five pin Latched XLR, not a DIN as I said in the video.

The power supply is in an external box that has a mains transformer, and a voltage regulator, only to have it regulated again inside.
twice.

The MM5837 appears to be a no gp (I have a spare) but the real issue is that the faders and switches are all corroded and jumpy.

I did end up taking the panel board off, and the faders seem to be like the contemporary ARP kind. Plastic body, moving wiper body."

One patch, two sounds - modulating the DB-01 filter


video upload by Richard DeHove

"Modulating the filter is one of the golden rules of using the DB-01. If it's not adding a gentle wave, beefing up the rhythm with a synced pulse, or acting as an extra envelope, then how about some FM? Here the LFO is unsynced, and running fast as a sine wave. By turning the main filter knob up or down the FM effect is revealed - as well as the very high resonance.

Although the music here is slightly chopped up from my meandering 12-minute jam, it's all from one take and none of the other controls (well, except octave up and down) are moved. I think the DB-01 does well getting so many flavors from this one patch.

As usual absolutely no other processing or effect than what you see.

"Quick demo of a nice organ / delay in the form of a Vermona ET3 and Dynacord Echocord Super 75.
You can get quite a large variety of sounds with this combo, for 60s pop to experimental droning."
