Buchla 100 & Kilpatrick Pattern Generator K4816

Published on Sep 17, 2013 DJjondent·206 videos

"Been testing out a few new modules... trying to decide what complements the Buchla 100.
The Kilpatrick K4816 clocks OK. I really like the Buchla 295 (10 channel comb filter) which seems to pair well with the 205 matrix mixer (10in, 4 out).

The 205 has 4 outs so it seemed logical to try it with a 281 Function Generator/292 Quad LP gate combo."

X1L3 - circuit bent - synth mod - Roland TR626 + Sequential circuits pro1

Published on Sep 17, 2013

X1L3 on eBay (RSS)

"Commission circuit bent 626. The first half of the vid hangs around a drone beat set with the distortion and filter doing most of the work while the square waves are all tuned up in unison and driving a kind of pseudo bassline. After this it all starts to go nuts with some nasty glitching and detuned square wave action. Comes to a head with the delay going into the drone industrial noise realm.

Thought i'd try to do something a bit different with this seeing as how it's quite a big machine with lots of panel space when fixed up in a wooden shell. Check out burnkit 2600 for loads of sweet mods you can do to these things and TR505's. I recently got hold of 1000 TS555 timer Ic's so thought i'd start putting them to good use. I made a pcb consisting of four of them, added two of these pcb's to the 626 and routed the square wave outputs to it's internal drum grouping mixer. The mixer contains AD generators which shape the square waves and give the machine a kind of 'analogue drum' sound. You can dial these waves in and out of the mix as well as alter the levels of the different drum groups. Added an external input round the back. You can use it as an fx processor for other gear or mix up the machine and an external source as i do with the pro one. As with most of the stuff i modify it's got a fluid feel to it that lets you drift from place to place. Quirky glitching to all out distorted grind.. The more you mess with it the more things you chance upon. The way it should be with a circuit bent machine."

Most of the modules were serviced at the end of 2012 by CAE in San Mateo with the exception of the Quash's and the keyboard.

The keyboard and the programming were never used and it is unsure if they work. However we were able to get the digital read-out to count. The rest of the modules worked at the end of 2012 but because of the vintage and delicate nature of the PAIA, it is not guaranteed that they are still working."
