The 208C is the module itself for use in a Buchla 200e system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBuchla’s own Joel Davel led the charge to create a new version of the legendary Music Easel instrument with more modular flexibility and independence, while also providing the means to easily interface with more devices, such as the various DAWs like Ableton and MIDI controllers, including the very expressive Sensel Morph. It’s still fully analog in its default configuration and provides the unique and exquisite Buchla experience with greater functionality at a lower cost.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat’s new compared to the previous Easel\/208?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMIDI input(USB B\/DIN) standard on Easel Command, optional on 208C.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2 – 1\/4″ Audio outputs (Easel Command only)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1 – 3.5mm 1v\/oct input (mixed to keyboard input) (Easel Command only)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1 – 3.5mm Gate input (turned into Buchla keyboard pulse with sustain) (Easel Command only)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMIDI A (USB Host) optional expansion port.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFive additional audio connections to get independent inputs and outputs from the oscillators and the gates, plus an FM input to the modulation oscillator.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFive additional banana CV connections to control knobs and faders and ability to send pulses independently to different inputs.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIf no aux input is present, analog white noise is generated (using the 266 circuit).\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA more logical layout of of the top row.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA power\/control mode LED indicator.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePulser now has a dedicated single pulse switch and mode distinction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe modulation oscillator section is now green, so that each main section has its own color.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe listed oscillator frequencies are more accurate and the scaled fader input range is trimmable from the old range to 1.2v\/oct.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYou can trim the new modulation oscillator and envelope generator inputs to work with the typical input ranges you desire.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYou can trim the oscillators to your desired volts per octave range for both the keyboard and the fader inputs.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYou can also reduce the gain on the gate 1 input if you have an unusually hot, non-Buchla input.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOne single circuit board allows it to be modular case friendly and easier to service; the 208c module can fit into a 200e case.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSwitches and jumpers for those who want to use the new banana inputs —those for the modulation oscillator and sustain— to control the sequencer stages instead.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStandard headers for the program card connector that allow us to develop future iProgramCard-like preset control from inside the unit.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNew connectors allow our plug-in MIDI interface and provides an optional stereo digital fx option (coming as an optional add-on in the future)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eActual stereo.
