Buchla 208p Music Easel First Sketch

This is DIY Buchla 208 Music Easel that I built. It took me over 50 hours, and it still isn't perfect, but it is perfect for me. This synth has such a rich sound, and is so easy to change the voice of the patch, that it is hard to not be inspired by playing with it. I have always wanted one, and am so happy I had the chance to build one.

This is a idea that I have been working with since I started calibrating this beast. It is far from complete, but I like where it is going. All sounds were recorded direct from the 208p, no external processing, no external effects. Just a boy and his toy.

With this kind of performance, I’m even more excited to receive mine. Amazing

I really dug this. I could see myself listening to this on a long car ride, or I could see this as the background music to an amazing movie or game

Super cool, great performance! Do you remember what the total cost was to build? Did you build the 218 too?
