Product Description

Only a handful of the little-known original Model 219 were ever made, but this keyboard offers all the expressive, open-ended touch possibilities you’d associate with Buchla, plus more extras than you might ever have imagined. The reissued Buchla Model 219 recreates the original four-octave range with a whopping 38 outputs – sufficient functional density and diversity to facilitate responsive control of elaborate configurations.

Polyphonic operation is musically logical—a sustained voice is not “stolen” by a trill; pressure outputs respond only to the activating keys. And expressive touch controls open up precise tuning and sensitive performance possibilities. Initiate events, address segments of function generators, or apply other control concepts. All of the design elements are accurate to the original, with only the substitution of modern joysticks (since the bespoke originals are long gone), and MIDI breakout capabilities.
