200e

The main control modules on our system include the 222e, 250e, and the 266e. It's an 18 rack that is very similar to Buchla's system #5 on this page.

I haven't decided my route of attack yet. I like the idea of building a giant patch and performing live, but I feel that it might be smarter to break down my sounds into small bits and load them into samplers within my DAW.

I wanted to know from other Buchla users how they approached this beastly instrument to do their biddings. From my experience with the system, doing tonal music can be quite a challenge, do you guys abandon the thought of tuning it precisely to reference pitches?
