This is a live performance of some cinematic synthwave using a combination of the Buchla 208c Easel Command with the Korg ARP-2600. I'm using a lot of eurorack modules for effects and stereo imaging, as well as an Eventide H9 pedal for delay. I wanted to make something ambient and meditative like a traveling scene in a movie soundtrack.

Patch Notes:
ARP-2600 normalled patch except I'm using the pulse wave out of oscillator 3, and oscillator 1 is tuned on octave down.
Buchla 208c Easel Command using the Make Noise 0-ctrl as a stand-in for the 218 touch controller. Audio is split, with one side going to a Make Noise Morphagene for rerecording and morphing to make the ambience and the other side going to a 4ms Tapographic Delay. The Morphagene audio is going to an Erbeverb and then to the X-Pan. The Tapographic Delay audio goes to the X-Pan, which is controlled by an Intellijel Quadrax in bipolar LFO mode, using an ALM Busy Circuits Tangle Quartet VCA to attenuate. Audio from the X-Pan goes to an Intellijel Outs and from there to the Eventide H9.
The mixdown is using a Warm Audio 2 bus compressor and two Klark Teknik EQP-KT Pultec clones.
