Buchla Easel Command

Name: Buchla Easel Command
Brand: Buchla
Price: 2688.52 EUR

Command is the newly updated 208C in a standalone desktop form with MIDI and CV control

SKU: 48089

MIDI input(USB B/DIN)
2 x 1/4" Audio outputs
1 x 1/8" 1v/oct input (mixed to keyboard input)
1 x 1/8" Gate input (turned into Buchla keyboard pulse with sustain)
MIDI A (USB Host) optional expansion port.
Five additional audio connections to get independent inputs and outputs from the oscillators and the gates, plus an FM input to the modulation oscillator.
Five additional banana CV connections to control knobs and faders and ability to send pulses independently to different inputs.
If no aux input is present, analog white noise is generated (using the 266 circuit).

Buchla Easel Command

Il Command è la nuova versione del Buchla Easel, è il modulo 208C con case incluso.

Il Buchla Easel Command è la nuova versione desktop standalone aggiornata del 208C con MIDI e controlli in CV integrati. Il 208C è il modulo che viene usato per i sistemi Buchla 200e. Joel Davel proprietario del marchio Buchla, ha sentito il dovere di creare una nuova versione del leggendario synth Music Easel rendendolo più indipendente e versatile, fornendo anche i mezzi per interfacciarlo con più dispositivi come le varie DAW (Ableton, Reason..) e i controller MIDI. Nella configurazione base è’ una macchina completamente analogica con maggiori funzionalità e che garantisce un esperienza unica e affascinante a un costo inferiore

Specifiche Tecniche

The Command is a modern reincarnation of the Easel, housed in a desktop case.

Features:

MIDI input(USB B/DIN)
2 x 1/4" Audio outputs
1 x 1/8" 1v/oct input (mixed to keyboard input)
1 x 1/8" Gate input (turned into Buchla keyboard pulse with sustain)
MIDI A (USB Host) optional expansion port.
Five additional audio connections to get independent inputs and outputs from the oscillators and the gates, plus an FM input to the modulation oscillator.
Five additional banana CV connections to control knobs and faders and ability to send pulses independently to different inputs.
If no aux input is present, analog white noise is generated (using the 266 circuit).
A more logical layout of of the top row.
A power/control mode LED indicator.
Pulser now has a dedicated single pulse switch and mode distinction
The modulation oscillator section is now green, so that each main section has its own color.
The listed oscillator frequencies are more accurate and the scaled fader input range is trimmable from the old range to 1.2v/oct.
You can trim the new modulation oscillator and envelope generator inputs to work with the typical input ranges you desire.
You can trim the oscillators to your desired volts per octave range for both the keyboard and the fader inputs.
You can also reduce the gain on the gate 1 input if you have an unusually hot, non-Buchla input.
One single circuit board allows it to be modular case friendly and easier to service
Switches 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.
Standard headers for the program card connector that allow us to develop future iProgramCard-like preset control from inside the unit.
New connectors allow our plug-in MIDI interface and provides an optional stereo digital fx option (coming as an optional add-on in the future)
Actual stereo. The 208 was always a mono synth, but if you plug in a stereo digital fx (coming as an optional add-on in the future), you’ll get stereo outputs on the MIX OUT and headphones.
A new power connector for more cable length and case flexibility and removability and one that’s already compatible with the more recent revisions of the Easel power board.
