People being jerks have obviously never worked a convention. Thank you for the work you put into this Joel, can't wait to get my hands on one!

[illustriouschin]

This is exactly what I've been looking for in a Buchla 208. It even has the spring reverb tank. Thank you Joel.

[JMX]

Great job - just got mine - really pleased with the improvements and new features - very good build quality !

[Claidheambmor]

Great video, really interesting stuff and well presented.

[gomey]

CV control of the env section is a really useful addition. It's something I always thought the original was sorely missing.

[a.w]

He seems like a wonderful guy and I really would like to own one of these synths some day.

[swatrick_payze]

Sounds very nice. Cool adjustments, i hope some day i’ll get my hands on an instrument like this.

NAMM is so loud that it makes your head fuzzy and since you also can't hear what you're saying half the time, it gets harder and harder to do a structured demo. I know he's trying, and he'd have been perfectly fine in a quiet environment, but at this point, he is struggling, and it is undeniably not quite the best imaginable presentation of a very interesting instrument. But it's still good. I love the instrument; it is designed in a way to inspire creativity and spontaneity.

very good synth 😍 with true quality sound and 100% analogue components

[dtkincaid]

Thanks, Joel for the great demo in such challenging conditions. I'm so excited to get mine!

[Jehudi]

Would there be an option to buy a Music Easel with the 208C module in it?

[ME-ruhv]

could it be interfaced with the LEM module? (why not have a traditional 37 key version!? come on a real portable Buchla keyboard?? do it please!)

[AdamsBrew]

I want mah behringer buchla for $50 per module.
ethics be damned.
;) (jk)

[sklgy]

I would love a Buchla module, but why are they so fucking expensive :(

[jeanbonnefoy]

Mind you: Uli Behringer is watching this video and taking notes... tbc :-)!

[ericfox]

The "Bob/Don would never..." people are the best. Not only have 99.99% of them never met or know anyone close to those icons, they also refuse to learn history. A simple search for Buchla System 101 or Buchla Touche should educate a few. While it's true he didn't embrace the MIDI protocol at that time, my guess is that had more to due with the fact that it didn't exist. I wonder what the 225e module is for? I will bring up the rest of your suggestions at the next board meeting :)

[Twinsungamer]

That's the .. huh ... so you can do the ... hmm ...
I always new west coat synthesis was too complicated :P

[GNeuman]

Sorry, but Buchlas are insanely expensive instruments only for pro-musicians and middle-aged cork-sniffers' man caves...

[mrotaveria]

we have Akai Dan and now we also have Buchla Joel

[goaway]

This dude is higher than a f’ing kite!
