Ziggy

Description

Buchla Ziggy, Monophonic Desktop Synthesiser, Analogue performance synthesiser in the classic Buchla style, Combines complex West Coast synthesis with intuitive modulation mapping and savable presets, Complex oscillator based on a modulatable sine wave, with variable sound shaping via amplitude and frequency modulation, a timbre wavefolder and a blendable spike, Square wave or sawtooth wave, Modulation oscillator with a wide frequency range extending into the audio range and sawtooth, square or triangle waveforms, The Lowpass-Gate functions as a VCA, filter or both, and is based on a Sallen-Key filter architecture with mixed envelope shapes that encourage experimentation, The Cycler section offers customisable modulation options, ranging from percussive envelopes to classic LFO waveforms, either in a cyclic pattern or as a single pass triggered via MIDI or CV, with an ‘Uncertainty’ parameter for unexpected random variations, XLFO with a triangular waveform as an additional modulation source, Modulation links are indicated by corresponding LEDs, Edit mode for setting parameters via dial-in encoders and the display, Can be integrated into modular systems via gate and CV connections, as well as MIDI control, External audio input for low-pass gate, The digital effects section offers chorus, delay, filter, reverb, pitch shift and much more, with macro control, Memory for over 100 programmes, Creative moods allow for variable scales, Steel housing with wooden side panels, Power supply via USB-C (power adapter not included), Dimensions: 307 x 196 x 71 mm, Weight: 2.31 kg@+*Connections:*, Stereo output: 2 x 6.3 mm mono jack, Headphone output: 3.
