Buchla’s implementation took the form of a series of independent modules connected via patch cords to define one of first modular systems. Subotnik went on to use Buchla’s designs for his seminal “Silver Apples of the Moon” LP, the first electronic music LP commissioned by a record company. Buffy Saint-Marie’s 1969 “Illuminations” album featured the same instrument.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\n\u003cimg alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/medias.arturia.net\/images\/products\/buchla-easel-v\/Buchla_Moog.jpg\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWorking independently 3000 miles apart, Buchla and Moog were very different men with diverging design philosophies. Where New England-based Moog was more methodical, Buchla’s penchant for bucking the system in both his personal life and electronic designs reflected his immersion in the ‘60s cultural revolution emanating from his Bay Area home. Ultimately, their differing approaches came to be emblematic of “East Coast” versus “West Coast” synthesis—although some of those lines are more blurred today.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\n\u003cimg alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/medias.arturia.net\/images\/products\/buchla-easel-v\/buchla-9.26.2016.jpg\" width=\"690\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBuchla didn’t like calling his designs synthesizers because he felt the term inferred imitating familiar sounds rather than working completely outside the box. The most telling difference is Buchla’s early refusal to incorporate a traditional music keyboard because he knew it would confine the unfettered sonic explorations he wanted to engender. When he finally did implement a semblance of a keyboard, it was in the form of stationary touch plates that output different voltages depending on how much of a finger was in contact with the surface and where—decidedly a different type of touch sensitivity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\n\u003cimg alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/medias.arturia.net\/images\/products\/buchla-easel-v\/portable.jpg\" width=\"690\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn 1973, Buchla distilled his modular design into a portable briefcase format called the Music Easel.

It included what would become signature West Coast features like additive\/modulation-focused synthesis, integral sequencer and clock triggering, separate non-triggered oscillator gain controls, filter\/gate combos and more.

You can set it for amplitude modulation (AM), frequency modulation (FM), or to AM-modulate an external signal like another track on your DAW. In low-frequency range, AM and FM produce effects like tremolo, vibrato, and trills. In audio range, they create distinctive sidebands that reshape the main sound source—anything from subtle harmonics to otherworldly ring modulation.

Its core waveform is a sine wave to which you add harmonics through wave folding—a type of wave shaping (also found in Arturia’s Brute hardware synth series) where the peak of a wave is cut off and folded back onto itself. The number of folds determines the harmonic content. You can induce further harmonics by crossfading that with a square, triangle or sawtooth wave. The Complex Oscillator can either be under melodic keyboard control or fixed in pitch for rhythmic elements, drones and more. Pitch and timbre can be modulated.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e3. Dual Low Pass Gates\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEasel V features two low-pass gates—essentially 12 db\/octave voltage-controlled filters (VCFs) configured to behave like gates, in that the closed state is actually just a sub-sonic cutoff frequency. This is yet another contributor to the instrument’s unique sound. You can switch each gate’s mode between filter, gate, or combination. Gate 1 is hardwired to the Complex Oscillator. You can switch Gate 2 to process the preamp’s output, Modulation Oscillator, or Complex Oscillator. In the latter case, the two gates operate serially for some unique effects.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/medias.arturia.net\/images\/products\/buchla-easel-v\/diagram.jpg\" width=\"690\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e4.

In Sustained mode, the sustain portion has a minimal duration that can be extended as long as a note is held. In sustained mode, the envelope completes regardless of whether the key is briefly hit or durably held—handy for percussion patches. Self mode—added to later hardware incarnations of the Music Easel—causes the envelope to repeat endlessly, resulting in cyclic effects more complex than you can realize with LFOs. You can also set the envelope to be triggered by the Pulser or Sequential Voltage Source, providing you with a variety of unique methods of realizing sonic animations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e2.

You’ll love driving the Easel V from external audio, such as using a DAW drum track to trigger parameters you connect to the Envelope Out of the built-in envelope follower.
