Buchla 250e Dual Arbitrary Function Generator
A dual-channel modular synthesizer module for complex voltage control, sequencing, and modulation.
Overview
The Buchla 250e Dual Arbitrary Function Generator is a modular electronic music module designed and made by Buchla. It has two independent channels, each with 16 programmable stages, so you get precise control over time and voltage. The module works as a complex envelope generator, a dual 16-stage sequencer, or a modulation source, alone or in combination. Each stage can be set as a rise or fall segment, with independent adjustment of time and voltage level. The whole system supports voltage control over stage time, voltage level, and curve shape.
The 250e can be clocked internally or externally. It has several run modes, including run once, loop, or triggered.
