Thank you. I already feel welcome. But I will not elaborate, because it will generate a sentence that doesn't really go anywhere. It's funny how people will...

Hi Steve! I'm new to this group as well - it looks really neat. So what's this Absynth thingie all about? Everything looks so familiar here . . . as if I were...
John, you are not new. You are simply one of those Absynth users who forgot where he was. Happens all the time. I actually thought I was on the Mrs....
Hi folks, I've been away from this group for years making music instead of sound tweaking. (Old timers may remember a couple of 'strangevibe' patch sets). ...
Well, the offers are not rolling in as I hoped, but I finally did find an old installer squirreled away. Alas it doesn't go to completion but complains that...

What version do you need? I keep all updates etc. I have: Absynth 1.23, 1.33, 1.34, 2.04, 2.05, 1.23, 3.02, 4.01 4.04, and 4.05 updaters -- all Mac. Steve da...
Thanks - I usually do as well and as I say, I did find what looked like the right one 2.01 (I assume there was such a thing), whatever 2.04 was an update for....
Hi all, I'm quite new to synth programming and have some trouble with Absynth4. I want to use an envelope as a step sequencer, simply to switch a note on and...
Hi Andreas, This is because when you release a note the envelopes jump to the release section of the envelope. You would need to have a similar on/ off pattern...
It sounds like you're describing an envelope follower or envelope detector. I am not an Absynth programmer (yet), relying so far on lightly modified presets....
A few beief comments on this for now because I am running short of time then more latter. Vactrols are not envelope followers although they can do this. They ...
(Apologies in advance to the EEs in the group. The following reply is aimed at non-engineers. Feel free to pick my electronic nits.) Hi John, You're correct...
Thanks a lot for the very deep reply ac:-) Your experiments with liquid and aluminum sounds very interesting. Do you have any audio examples? I was not aware...
Allan: I think you dead on with your description of vactrols and their use in Buchla synths. Your also right that these defects end up being good things. The...
"Vactrol" is the trademark, currently held by the Perkin-Elmer corporation, for their line of optoisolators / optocouplers. Given the time frame of Subotnick...
Brian: This has some simple examples of vactrols used in a dual low pass gate from Plan B and a good description of what it does. Some classic Buchla is the...
This may be late in the game, but here's a few things I found: "The secret of the lowpass gate is that the "slew" of the Vactrol makes the attack very soft and...
Hey, Brian, You're welcome. It's a fun topic. There's always a richness in the marriage of the physical and the digital. That's why it's so rewarding to pass...
Yes, memory is another characteristic of analog devices, and it varies according to the device type and the operating conditions. An incandescent optocoupler...
Gotta love those recent Buchla 200 series instruments. They're works of art even if you don't ever plug them in. I want 'em all. I'll buy everyone a set when...
Steve: The Plan B stuff sounds really good, classic Buchla and a much lower cost. Plan B would be very high on my list. I looked at some of the other stuff...
Ah, that the secret to having enough money to buy Buchla modules! Either that or sell an Illinois senate seat. ... works ... type ... of ... which ... Whatever...
Yo Lux! I'll be anxious to see. It's certainly a cool organic sound. I haven't researched this stuff, I merely found it and presented it to you. Let me...
