Buchla & Tiptop Audio have announced that the Model 259t Programmable Complex Waveform Generator for Eurorack is now shipping to dealers.
The 259t is a 34hp Eurorack format reissue of the original Buchla 259 Complex Oscillator design of the ’70s.
The dual VCO features the classic waveform outputs, waveshaping and center modulation of the original, but is also integrated with the Tiptop Audio ART system for precise autotuning control.
Pricing and Availability:
The Programmable Complex Waveform Generator Model 259t is now available to pre-order, priced at $529.
Very disappointed that Buchla associated with Tip-top. The previously elite status modules have fallen into the hands of far too many undesirables due to the reduced price. Very very disappointing.
Sounds like you are very concerned about the riff-raff synthesists getting involved!
Absolutely. It’s a deeply concerning trend. Like is society, synthesis should return to a feudal system. The peasants must not be allowed access to such things, less they start to claim that they will ‘expose the sham’ that is my iambent studies with some ‘semi competent composition or sound design’.
Damn them
