there is so much misinformation on the web.. be it here, on wikipedia etc.. I again suggest that if you have serious questions you go to the source for answers.. call Don, email Ezra..even those of us here with systems and experience using the system probably suffer from misunder

"the resolutions were chosen to try and match the sensitivity of the human nervous system to various parameters. For example, humans are very sensitive to pitch, so a higher resolution DAC might be used to drive an output that was intended to control pitch, e.g. 225e Note buss."

ah, so basically, the "pitch" function/button on the 249e does not do anything? Just thinking... you could add a page to the 222e to assign radio groups to busses, yeah? Ya know.. something to chew when the current features are all locked down and stable:) --tom --- In 200e@yahoo

2008-08-21 by ezra.buchla@gmail.com
that's a thought. in theory there wouldn't be any technical reason not to put more midi on the data bus (aside from making it generally a little overcrowded...) but again there is a problem with interface requirements; not enough switches and stuff left on the panel. anyway we wo
2008-08-21 by tmeade1974
Very nicely put Ezra. I was wondering if there are any plans to have the 250e and 222e use the internal bus. The 249e did so, correct? Seems like a good solution for saving accurate pitch routings in these modules if they can bypass the 210e when being "in tune" is required. --to
2008-08-21 by onycha.hazel
Just a brief question. Why wasn't the 222e designed to also be used as a MIDI controller?

you can still tune stuff by ear for CHROMATIC music as people have been doing since 1963. i do this. it's actually a lot easier than with vintage buchla or serge modules cause there's zero drift and you can easily store and recall setttings. i use the 200e all the time in ROCK BA

2008-08-20 by ezra buchla
that's right. getting autonomous preset storage in the 250e is a priority but it's proven difficult. next firmware rev. fort now, you must use a 225. On Wed, Aug 20, 2008 at 1:24 AM, JB wrote: > This is something i know Ezra has been working on implementing in all > modules, but

if you plan to ultimately have the 12 panel cabinet, that's true. if you're not sure, or you don't particularly care about the folding cabinet, you could always get a 3rd 4p boat later. On Wed, Aug 20, 2008 at 5:52 AM, kkonkkrete wrote: > > How does 2 x 4-boats work with the buse

HI, what can i say. It is a very interesting looking System. But! I cant use my 250 for any Harmonic Music because the quantizer do not work correct. Also my Software versions got some nasty bugs. Still wait for an down grade oder upgrade version. (i got Firm Ver.5) 225e works fi
2008-08-20 by don hassler
You could go in similar route as me and start with a pair of 4 boats, then add the third when funds allow. Since I've added a 266e, and fyi, it appears there may be possibility of Buchla producing another batch of 259e waveform generators, if enough folks are interested I think.
2008-08-20 by kkonkkrete
How does 2 x 4-boats work with the buses and power distribution? It seems like if I get 2 x 4-boats, I might as well just get a (half empty) 12-cabinet, so that I don't have to ship the boats back afterwards when I upgrade to a cabinet. --- In 200e@yahoogroups.com, don hassler wr

That's a shame. I wanted to start with the following units in a 6-boat and get the 225e when I expand to a 12-unit system: 1 x 250e 2 x 261e 1 x 281e 1 x 292e Perhaps I have to rethink this, as saving the sequence is a very basic operation that I'll need all the time (don't want

2008-08-20 by JB
This is something i know Ezra has been working on implementing in all modules, but im not sure if the 250 has this feature yet. I would recommend getting the 225e though, being able to switch presets is very valuable if you plan to use the system live, its a great feature, i use

How much does the Arbitrary Function Generator remember at power down? If you don't have a 225e to store the settings, does the 250e recall all data for the current settings, or do you have to reprogram it every time you power up (or load the program from the 225e if you have one

I should have my new 200e in 6 weeks and the last 2 nights I have had dreams of it. The first night it turned up with just blank panels the second night, it arrived and I was touching the side panels, it also came with a large motherboard that Don was saying he wanted me to test.
