Sera

For Wetterberg. All trigger sequencing done by the 4ms Rotating Clock Divider.



About a quater of the way through I change the autorepeats a few times (courtesy of my homegrown expander). When it gets a little weirder (about 2/3 in) that's when I'm sending CVs to rotate the clock.



9 envelopes, 4 oscillators (6 if you count the HD twice), 5 LPGs. and an effects send. All timed from the 4ms module.

Had an insightful Skype tutorial session on the 256e with Leo Espejo! Afterwards I tweaked the fun patch that we had discovered into this little beat exploration.  Pulses and CVs coming from 281e and Mod Osc processed through two channels of the 256e then feed into the 261e and 292e.

256e Beat Play

The first few seconds of audio to emerge from Brian Kehew's 1979 Crumar GDS after awakening for the first time during restoration of this extremely rare groundbreaking early digital synthesizer.    The GDS was extensively used by Wendy Carlos in the production of the soundtrack for the film Tron.

Prototype osc unfiltered sine/saw, unfiltered sine/squ bass kick (250e pulse to osc input), and 266e+291e noise (snare).

Heavy Bass Beat

259e and 292e

12 minutes of cool Buchla rhythmic stuff.  Recorded live--just tweaking as it goes, one pass.
