Poly Sequencer V3 | Getting Started
video upload by Space Brain Circuits
"The POLY SEQUENCER is a MIDI based polyphonic step sequencer that records up to 128 steps. The Poly Sequencer works by recording a sequence by a MIDI controller, and outputting the recorded sequence via an external MIDI enabled device. The Poly Sequencer’s tempo is controlled by the Internal Clock by use of the Tempo Knob or Tap Tempo. However, the Poly Sequencer may also be synced to external gear by use of the Gate In, or receiving MIDI Clock messages. The rate at which the steps are sequenced is controlled by the Division section, representing the number of steps played per clock. By Default, the Poly Sequencer can store up to 5 notes per step with 1 Velocity and 1 CC reading, however the user may choose to change the Sequence Type which varies the stored data depending on the mode selected. Additional functionality includes saving, auto generating blank sequences, as well as step override/ interrupt/ transpose during playback. Firmware versions may also be upgraded by USB connection.

Sequence Types:
The Poly Sequencer’s operation may be adjusted depending on the Sequence Type selected. The Sequence Type defines what type of data is stored for each step. For Example, Mode 0 stores up to 5 notes, with 1 Velocity and 1 CC reading per step.
Mode 0 (Default): 5 Notes, 1 Velocity, 1 CC
Mode 1: 4 Notes, 2 CC
Mode 2: 4 Notes, 4 Velocity
Mode 3: 1 Note, 1 Velocity, 3 CC
Mode 4: 0 Notes, 3 CC
Mode 5: 8 Notes

BUCHLA and Associates - rare original Piano Bar
Note: Auction links are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.
video upload by Con Brio Synthesizers
"This is my old Buchla Piano Bar - a very rare instrument interface from Don Buchla. Originally conceived and designed by Don - this is one of very few ever made (This one is serial #105 - they started at #100 - so likely the 5th made of 10 or so?)
I have only seen one other of these - it's in the Cantos Museum (NMC in Calgary Canada) but that one is a different model altogether. No others appear on the web at all currently.
The Buchla system works very well - it's placed (no mounting or drilling) across any 88-key piano keyboard. Optical sensors over each key convert these to note on/off of MIDI. The box generates programmable General Midi sound sets, and also has output of MIDI signals for recording or triggering external modules.
I have both the Moog and Buchla Piano Bars - they are quite comparable. The Moog is far more common, with a few hundred sold, but both are rare. Too bad - as it's an excellent design and works so well. Having the acoustic piano sound (and superb feel of any wooden piano keys) plus the richness of the layered sampled sounds - really is a blast to play this. Pedals sensors are down below, so sustain is also triggered.
It has full dynamic control, a very sensitive response. I reprogrammed most of the generic preset sounds into better sets of things - any General Midi manual will show you how this can be done. Splits and layers, effects, retuning, octaves, varied Midi channel outputs - all the basics are possible here."

"This is a very rare item, one of only two I can find currently in existence.
The Buchla Piano Bar was an ingenious invention by legendary synthesizer designer Don Buchla. It is placed across the keys of a standard acoustic piano, the height is adjusted at each end, and the stretch can be adjusted to fit slightly different size keyboards. Beneath you have a portable sensor to go under the pedals, this and the keyboard sensor connected to the back of the main box.
The main box is a converter to change the piano motion into midi notes, covering all 88 keys with full Dynamics. Inside the box is also a General MIDI device, a sound synthesizer chip with hundreds of preset sound options. These can be stacked, split, layered, retuned, and affected in different ways. These can be saved as presets which I have done for many sounds in here. (The original sounds were terrible general presets like Marimba etc.)
Bob Moog was given a license to change this design and sell his own version in 2004. It's a very similar device with the same types of sounds, but those are more common as they made 100 or more.
As you can see in the video it works very well, simply adjust the keyboard sensor as low as possible, and it just works. You can feed a sequence or a computer with the midi notes coming out, recording a midi performance along with the acoustic sound of your piano. Most people find an acoustic piano has a superb feel, so it also makes just a great controller for other midi devices.
I have changed one knob out on the front panel for a larger knob, as seen in the video, but I will include the smaller original knob as well. I received two original carrying cases, but no paperwork with the unit.
These are quite rare and valuable, please email me and discuss if you want to ship with insurance as an additional cost."
