Long Beginnings (1985, Buchla 400)

João Pernambuco: Graúna

Luiz Bonfá: Xangô

Launch Complex 39A

A live improvisation by D.A.Wilson on an extremely rare 1982 Buchla 400-T computer controlled 6-voice hybrid synth (digital "arbitrary" oscillators into analog filters) running MIDAS-III complete with flat pressure sensitive Touch Controller housed in a custom Teak solid wood cabinet awakens during return to operation and overhaul and Lotharek Rev.F HxC virtual floppy disk retrofit at Hideaway Studio.

The touch keyboard was a nightmare to get used and it took a great deal of my concentration to perform this as the pressure-to-pitch modulation was pretty intense on the patch I'd dialled in that day but it certainly resulted in something from the heart.  The highly responsive playing surface opens up some interesting possibilites for expressive patch design and playing!

1982 Buchla 400 Awakens: Haute Tension

lots of 291e filter action here.  All self playing, except for the fades at the beginning.  Some reverb and fx in logic, but not nearly as much as usual.

Friday the 23rd

track created using soft sync on both oscillators of the 258e.  all sounds from the 258e.  vedic scapes blacet time machine adaptation also used.

258e Bilateral Soft Sync

a random sampling of some DPO (258e) sounds I made while creating material for a track.   Minimal modules used.  This is the DPO/281e/292e and MIDI, no FX.  Posting to give an idea of the range of sounds this oscillator is capable of creating.  Use speakers/headphones.  
The DPO is a buchla format oscillator and is made by studiohsoftware.com
