THIS IS HOW WE DEFORM: Buchla 252e


The Buchla 252e Polyphonic Rhythm Generator seems to have been the last major design overseen by Don Buchla before his death in 2016.  After the series of problems surrounding the re-released Music Easel it's a miracle that this complex wonder has seen the light of day,  and gotten into the hands of modular synthesis enthusiasts. It's essentially a multi-layered sequencer that allows CV output and editing, display layer selection, clock assignment and synchronization, cell selection, and pulse editing/selection.  Tutorial and hands in the mix:  w/o vertices.
