I am using the Buchla 208c music Easel Command along with the Make Noise 0-ctrl as a stand in for the 218 touch controller. I am using annotations to try to teach some of my thought process when I'm making these improvisations. This patch explores some of the possibilities of setting up two different "colors" of sounds and switching between thm. This is a really simple patch! It's possible to get so much sound just by making small CV moves on the faders, and I also found that you can make a lot of timbres by changing attack and decay. I am using the west coast technique of starting with something and spinning it out like a centrifuge. I'm processing the sound through a few eurorack modules that I will detail below. Hopefully this camera angle also helps you learn something!
