I am intrigued, what exactly am I looking at?

The ones with the beautiful big screens look like the Polyexpressive polyMORPH and Digit....

I have no problem with them using her designs as they are in the public space, I just don't like that Arturia is playing it off like it's a collaboration; I wouldn't have had any issues at all had they just said they incorporated some modes from Mutable Plaits

This is kind of weird.

It's nice that they reached out, but at the same time it's odd to involve someone only at arm's length. To me it would've been better to involve her even less, rather than focus-testing her as she puts it.

Last year Catalyst Audio had 6 modules ready to go. In the Red Panel series they now have 9. There’s the 106 (Six Channel Mixer), the 110 Quad Voltage Controlled Gate, the 156 Control Voltage Processor, the 156 (modern version), the 158 Dual Channel Oscillator, the 180 Dual Attack Generator, the 112 Touch Controlled Voltage Source, the 190 Dual Reverberator and the 193 (Combination of 194 and 191) Dual LoPass / Bandpass Filters. They are also releasing a 6U 84HP case to put it all in.

The question we all want answered though is what does “affordable” mean to Buchla. Catalyst Audio prices ranged from $179 for the 156 modern up to $449 for the 158 dual oscillator which are regular Eurorack prices.

In the video below Todd Barton remarks how the Red Panel line is not really “Buchla”, it’s sponsored by them but is not up to Buchla Associates standards. He also says that Red Panel refers to a legendary panel that was dipped in LSD that they used to lick and then find themselves patching for days.

This feels like a Buchla endorsement of Catalyst Audio products which must be an awesome validation for Dave’s work.

These modules should be available in the Spring but there’s no official pricing.

That is very weird, but it at least clears things up. She has the same issues with the "Mutable collab" branding as I do, but she doesn't want that to stop people from buying it, just doesn't want to be associated with it since she had no involvement in design choices.
