200e

I am a fan of the Buchla 200e but like many people I can only dream of
being able to afford a system. 

In the meantime I want to learn more about how they work and to better
understand why they cost so much (and why they are worth it).

One thing I would really like to do is try modeling some of the core
modules in a Nord Modular 1. I know that someone did this before for
the Complex Waveform Generator module but unfortunately he lost the patch.

I have also been trying to find block diagrams of how some of the
Buchla modules work but the information seems to be scarce. I was also
told that users who receive the User Manual are told not to distribute
it. This seems odd to me. I would imagine that any prospective buyers
of a Buchla system would definitely want to read the manual ahead of
time to gain a far better understanding of the systems capabilities
and to help select modules to purchase.

Is there anywhere that I could get some of these details?

thanks!
