Oh, I was picturing the 284. Yeah, not really exciting, good discovery none
the less.
That's what I get for not having any buchla and talking about it.
Let that be a lesson to you kids, get as much buchla as you can before this
happens to you!

Wait, so the 281 in sustain mode, the sustain level pot value sets the
trigger voltage as well ?
That seems immensely cool! A great shared function, like a built in
comparator of sorts.
I wonder if it was intentional?

hm, this is a little misleading... both the 281e and the 281 produce pulses
a little shy of +12v but actually respond at considerably lower thresholds:
about +8.4v to trigger and +4 (or a little less) to sustain.
i'm looking at one of each right now just to make sure... interestingly, the
281 triggers at the sustain voltage when in sustain mode. behold: a bug,
methinks!
anyway, you will be fine with the continuum. again, basically nowhere in the
200e series will > +10v have any additional effect.

sorry... that's not what i mean. in fact there is no sustain level pot...
i just mean that the (old!) 281's trigger with a pulse input below 5v
in sustain mode, when they're technically supposed to trigger just
below 10v and sustain at 5v. it's not really very exciting...
