Advanced Music Technology Labs

The advanced music technology labs support the Hybrid Music class as well as contract students utilizing music technology. The Hybrid Oasis houses the Buchla 200, one of our legacy synths. The Oasis also includes an Otari 8 Track deck for recording to magnetic tape and producing tape loops, as well as a variety of modular synths, drum machines, MIDI controllers, and digital and soft synths. The Oasis is capable of both analog  and digital synthesis and composition.

Library 1528 houses the Buchla 200E, the more recent addition to the Buchla family. The 200E is MIDI capable and utilizes firmware and a module address system, allowing sophisticated patching potential and communication between modules.

Below is a list of all current hardware and software included in the Advanced Labs.
