The 297 is a great phaser. I don't have any standard examples handy i am sorry. But here is a fun example where the 297 is the only source of the sounds: http://www.synthi.se/buchla/Resonance.mp3 It can self oscillate in certain settings and this can be triggered by using a LFO a

I added my 227e after about 6 months with a small system and it surprisingly "opened up" the sound a lot. The possibility to position sounds and controlling movements together with timbre is great. A dull static timbre can be interesting if it is moving. It is made so that you ea

thanks for the correction, Ed. Lippold hadn't mentioned this feature, but it makes sense. But without a 1.2v/oct scaled output on the 259e or 261e, it puts us back in the days of tuning insanity every time you go to do something. gary Edmund Eagan wrote: > > The Continuum Voltage

The Continuum Voltage Converter has adjustable scaling, and one of the presets Haken Audio plans to have available out of the box is 1.2v/octave, so it should work perfectly with Buchla oscillators. Output voltage ranges on the CVC are factory customizable within the voltage limi

Ok, thanks. I had my Modcan modular in mind, which has separate cv in, and 1v/oct inputs that confused me. Speaking of Modcan, I have two quad bandpass filters in this format, which reminds me of the Buchla 296 Programmable Spectral Processor. A reissue of this module for the 200

yes, it's the jack / pot labeled "cv in" just below the large freq knobs of each section. If the continuum will output 1.2 volt/oct, just patch it to the cv in and turn the knob to almost full right, then you can fine adjust the scaling with the little trim pot. On Oct 20, 2006,

Certainly. I believe it's 1.2 v/octave - please correct me if I'm wrong. The input is a banana jack, so you'll need a 1/4"-to-banana cable to interface the Continuum convertor with the Buchla, but they're readily available and easy to make. >Does the 261e has v/oct input to contr
