Building a free to use Buchla System based on the 208c Easel Command | Thomann

Today we're having a look at how to build a free to use Buchla System within VCV Rack using only free modules. You can either build it yourself based on the information in this video or you can just download the final patch.

This is definitely the most inspiring and informative channel on sound design. Thanks a lot!

[ChrisMills-AmbientSpace]

That is so lovely. Thank you for sharing this - I really appreciate the flexibility of VCV to exceed the possibilities of the plugin version of the Easel. So cool!

Let's use this great video to motivate the amazing developers of those modules to make them Apple silicone compatible :)

[sebastianrussell]

Legend, I was literally looking for exactly that. Thank you

[SamMcEwin]

Amazing Felix. Great video! Thank you.

That was the funniest opener to a synth video ever hahah

so many thnxs bro! one day I will get the original buchla easel, but now I have an option to experiment with at lest a good digital reproduction, as it does sound good in VCV, and better than Arturia's (still a good one) to me. thanx for the file and forthe creation and for the explanations

[nharmonium]

been wanting to get into vcv rack, thanks!

[dedicatedspuddler]

Very cool patch! Thanks for sharing. I will enjoy it.

[FSK]

VERY NICE, always looking for better use for vcv , sounds very heavy and clean

Be aware that if you want to do this on an M1 (or higher) Mac to not run the native VCV rack version for ARM processors but the Intel version via Rosetta. The NYSTHI modules have not been ported to M1 one yet!!!

[walrtbstudios]

I don’t have VCV, or a pc on which to run it. However, I do have MiRack for iPad, and wonder if the limited palette of modules there will permit this set-up. Worth a try…

[JasonWehmhoener]

Really looking forward to these Nysthi modules getting an arm64 update, can't run them without rosetta on an M1 mac yet.

Thank you, I have always wondered given the price of Buchlas why this wasn't already a thing. God I hate overpriced gear.

[VNDM-MUSIC]

the dropbox download is not available ("file type not supported") ?

[mauromantovani]

Is there a way to use this inside Ableton live?

[_DRMR_]

Too bad this uses some proprietary modules and cannot be used with Cardinal. Would be great if someone can make a comparable patch that works in both!

[neuzethmusic]

Nothing beats hardware. Now that I own a lot of Eurorack I can't go back to VCV. It is impossible 😒
