“Todd’s tutorials are my lifeline to understanding all things Buchla and beyond! Not only informative on the technical but artistically inspiring as well!”    — Mark Isham

I am now offering tutorials for Eurorack modular systems too!

If you are a beginner just wanting to get your head and fingers around a Buchla oscillator or a Serge DSG, a Hordijk Rungler, or for those of you wanting to get a jump start on your Music Easel or just delve deeper into your Buchla 200e or Serge system, or explore a particular module . . . I am offer online Skype (or FaceTime) tutorials.  These are essentially private lessons and can be either a one-off, addressing a specific topic, or an ongoing set of lessons developing deeper techniques.

“My students getting started on the Buchla 200e have been using Todd’s tutorials.  It has made my teaching much more productive. Thanks Todd; we need more!”

— Morton Subotnick
