Anyone who has heard this oscillator will know that it is at least 20 
times better than any other oscillator.
Ive heard just about every oscillator out there inc ,serge,plan 
b ,cynthias thru zero,arp2500,2600,synthi 100, and it beats them all 
easily so im presuming the only reason it hasnt been done is because 
you dont know about it so mr dopefer I know you should make it your 
business to check it out your a100 system is going from strength 
strength and if you pulled this off you had have the most enviable 
modular module ever.

...and the owners sells it back to buy 261 analog
259 is digital and alias splendid in higher frequenties.

But something like Buchla 210e Control&Signal Router would be 
fabulous.

the buchla 259 is for sure a great vco, but i doubt that
dieter is interested in producing a clone. 
but maybe it is interesting for him to produce a vco
which is inspired by the buchla 259.

another really important point is the price of such a
module. i don't think that you will buy such a vco if
it cost 1000 euros, right? a buchla 259 clone would
probably cost that much.

best wishes
