This bass sound is soooo nice - on the verge of eargasmic!

Toraiz AS-1, Microfreak, V Bass, Keystep. NTS-1, V Sample, Looper, Djembe and Bongos.

Raindance

261e into 292e. 292e to 297. 297 1 back into 261e (mod FM input). 297 2 into 285e. Modulated by 258. 285e out to speakers. 251e provides sequence. Pulse out to 281e gives envelope. Envelope mixed with 266e FRV A in 254v. Result modulates 292e. 266e FRV B controls 285e timbre.297 env follower routed back to itself modulating phase. Mod osc set to hi, modulating the amp and pitch, both FM input and index knobs set to max. 292e is in both mode.


258-261-2

Roland TR-330 recorded from the line out and untreated. Round Robin chopped so that a random LFO can simulate the analog variations of each sound. It's subtle.

The hats should be sliced to a 48 grid. You'll have to delete the second slice on each open hit and stretch out the one before it. The resulting high hat chain is 32 slices, 16 closed / 16 open.

quick track testing out the incredible 258e!  Everything in this recording is from the 258e except the poly synth (waldorf uwave xt).  Just checking out the midi functionality.  exceptional module!!!

258e Test

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

This patch consists of just a 250e and one 261e oscillator. CV1 from the 250e modulates the Timbre of the 261e, while CV2 modulates the Symmetry. There's also a bit of me messing with the High Order knob, but only for about a minute or less. I like this patch because I find the Timbre circuit on the 261e to be an incredible thing. On any other system it would most likely take a VCF + Wavefolder/shaper to achieve such varied tones. Only with a Buchla can you get so many incredible sounds out of a single oscillator. A little reverb was added later inside the computer.

261e mod osc with wave shape modulation.
258e bassline with VCA applied to envelopes.
259e through 291e with FM from mod osc.

258e sequence is from 250e.
261e sequence is 258e sequence transposed with another 250e.
259e sequence is 258e sequence transposed with 251e.
