I think the 222e exceeds the functionality of the old touchplates.. now there is polyphonic response rather then mono or psuedo-poly, the joysticks from the 219/221 are replaced by the 2 - 222es X/Y pads.. the only function missing in the side to side rocking motion sensor that m
2006-01-22 by Gary Chang
Yes.... The new Buchla touch pad is excellent. Its programablity allow most of the functions found on the preceding Kinestetic Input ports - plenty of individual keys that can output pulse and preset voltages when touched. This really makes the 200e a complete system, akin to the

I've posted a picture of the 222e ("Thunder") on the group site. The full name is "Mutli-Dimensional Kinesthetic Input Model 222e. It's 7" high and 12 3/4" inches long (three Buchla spaces wide). Accompanying it is the 222e output module (7" x 4 1/4", one space wide). I don't hav

for the sake of historic accuracy this is *NOT* Thunder II Thunder II is/was a hand drum controller designed by Buchla for EMU back in the 90's .. it was never completed or produced. This new controller is a 200e specific module and doesn't have internal power or MIDI, it is a CV

I have got one. I had ordered and paid for a small system that wasn't delivered when the news about the 261e arrived so i just changed my order slightly to get one of these. It looks like Buchla & Associates has a booth at NAMM, so perhaps they are busy preparing for that. j 2006
2006-01-17 by cuari7
How many of you guys have taken delivery of your 261e's? I ordered one right about the time they were posted on their site, but nothing yet. Last time I spoke to Don he just said he'd "try to get them out soon..." Sigh.....
2006-01-16 by Mark Verbos
That is interesting. The 292's output is in phase with the input, however the Buchla mixers invert the signal on it's way thru, I assume to allow phase cancellation. So in a 206 you can use one side to invert and the other side to mix the signals. You could do the same with the 2

2005-12-16 by cuari7
Agreed. I only own 259e's at this time, and while I agree about the vast sonic capabilities of them, I frequently find the aliasing too intrusive for my own, personal musical needs. The only device close to being able to do what the 259e does is the Serge Wave Multiplier, so I su
2005-12-16 by JB
I think there may be a misconception about 261e being an improvement or "better" than 259e, lacking aliasing etc. In my opinion (i have one of each) they are complementing each other in a number of ways, soundwise as well as functional. Take a good look and compare mod osc on bot

2005-11-30 by Fred Weed
Yes. At each stage, if you turn the time or voltage knob, it takes effect immediately. This is a change from earlier versions of the 250; owners and users might want to contact Buchla and Associates about obtaining a software update. Note that the display on the 250 doesn't show
2005-11-30 by Peter Grenader
huh? thr 250 changes in real time? this must be a new firmware change. On the 250 at Big City Music, the voltage at each stage is latched until the next time that stage is active. You can see the value change on the display as you are editing, but that level doesn't take effect a
2005-11-30 by fred88piano
Short answer - yes. The 250 voltage outputs refresh in real-time, whether playing or editing. The time/duration knobs work similarly - if you turn down the duration while on a stage, it will advance to the next stage that much sooner. This is true of most if not all of the knobs
