Hi Ezra, I was definitely aware of the tabou topics for this board but I guess I didn't make clear that I was not challenging or questioning the price. I do hope to be able to buy one in the future! I am actually electrical engineer and have done some design work for music techno
2008-08-06 by ezra buchla
the cost of the 200e is due mostly to the ultra-small scale of their production; basically B&A is still only don buchla, hanging in there since 1964 (this is not Moog... we don't have t-shirts...) but there are other factors. small-scale production is relatively cost-effective fo

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 mo

If I recall this was the premier of the 700 and Don Grusin was there?controlling the 700 from a midi kybd....or maybe tht was another "performance" of 700. ?The 700 had a membrane keyboard...kind of..not a standard affair. I saw the 700 in a motel room at the NAMM show that year
2008-08-05 by Richard Lainhart
From what I've seen, the 700 had a membrane keyboard, but it sounds like someone's noodling on a standard black-and-white keyboard. Perhaps it had a MIDI controller attached for the demo? > http://www.archive.org/details/OTG_1988_03_21 > > a strange audio recording introducing th

How does the CV section in the 210e work? The manual states: "the output will be the sum of the scaled inputs" whereas the website says: "if more than one input is routed to a single output , the result is ORed (the highest control voltage wins) ----------------------------------
