For Sale is a magnificent Buchla Thunder serial number 1064.

It’s is an extremely rare device that was made by Don Buchla in 90’s. It is a unique controller that is able to send various parameters via midi.
No other controller in the world to this day has this much of an expression and tactile feel like the mighty Thunder.

Buchla produced a 222 and 223 but they were all cv parameters no midi was used. So this beast is still unique in the Buchla lineage.

The Buchla Thunder is a programmable tactile control surface that interfaces synthesizers via MIDI.

Developed by electronic instrument designer Don Buchla in 1989, Thunder is a musical instrument controller with an array touch sensitive keys. Keys 1 to 9 respond to pressure and keys 10 to 25, with the feather graphic respond to both pressure AND location. Thunder's software — known as “STORM” — allows assignment of any key's touch, pressure, and/or location to any MIDI controller number or note number on any MIDI channel. Keys can also be assigned to start and stop “Riffs" that might be programmed as part of the preset. (“Riffs" precede and are similar to “clips” in Ableton Live.)
