Buchla 252e and 285e

2011-04-24 by arthur_p20012001

I am considering adding one of the above to my powered cabinet.  Does anyone have any experiences to share about the Quad Sequential Voltage Source and the Frequency Shifter/Balanced Modulator?  I'm sort of tending towards the 285e.  Thanks!

I've not heard, tried or seen the 252e but I love the 285e -- it can go from the most delicate and subtle RM and FM to the very dramatic -- it is smooth and extremely
responsive.  Of course, it depends on what style of sounds/music you want to do
whether the 252e or 285e is best for you.  You can't lose methinks.  best, Todd

Todd, 
Thanks for your input.  I appreciate getting it from a seasoned user.  I mainly do "very disturbing noise" according to my wife,  but I think of it as a kind of sound sculpting.
                                                  Best Regards,                                                       Arthur

I'm not a seasoned user yet, but the 18 rack I use has a balanced modulator on it. If you're into ring modulation than that module is the pinnacle of it.
