Tenori-On and Buchla

Though the Tenori-On (hardware version) has been out for ages (since 2007-2008) there aren't many videos of it being used with a 200e Buchla.

Paul (Cobramatic) & I decided to trial the i-pad Tenori app and the hardware sequencer yesterday. Loved them both. Spoilt for choice.

Both the app and hardware Tenoris are unique ways to create music. There are 16 layers or for our purpose there are 16 channels of midi. The first 7 are very much like your standard midi sequencer.
Layers 8 to 11 use Random Modes. Layers 12 and 13 allow you to "draw" sequences. Layers 14 and 15 are unusual : called "Bounce" and "Push" Modes.
