street priceLEM-208 is the basic unit for building Easels. Providing this arrangement, the manufacturer offers the musician to choose what he needs. For example:
You can install the iProgram card and use the tablet instead of the keyboard, and considering the remaining space, install any four modules from 200e series you like.
If you install the module 223e with its keyboard you’ll get a full-fledged Easel-K.
Installing LEM-218 keyboard will give you Music Easel.
The core of the module 208 is based on the main oscillator and modulatable one.
The main oscillator generates saw, square, triangle waveforms, as well as intermediate complex shapes.
For the modulatable oscillator only sawtooth, triangular and square waveforms are available. There are two modes of operation for this oscillator:
HI - allows the oscillator to be used in VCO mode (voltage controlled oscillator).
LOW - LFO (low frequency oscillator) mode.
The switch selects the mode of interaction between the modulatable oscillator and the main one: ring modulation, amplitude or frequency modulation.
The generated signal enters the "dual lopass gate" block of the Buchla 292h module. It operates in VCF (low-pass voltage controlled) mode, VCA (voltage controlled amplifier) or can combine both modes.
A spring reverb effect is provided with an adjustable depth.

MEB is Buchla Music Easel featuring iProgram Card. The expansion card is inserted into the slot instead of the program card and allows saving up to 24 presets. It allows you to save - it’s not the program card the settings in which are adjusted by...
After more than forty years, Buchla engineers returned their legendary synthesizer onto the market. The modern model does not differ much from the vintage one. In fact it is the same Music Easel but expanded with modern functionality. The basis of the...
Easel-K is a combination of 208 Stored Program Sound Source (all Easel units are based on it) and Buchla 223e module of kinesthetic input. Compared to LEM 218 keyboard, 223e module has many more operational controls. It represents 27 velocity sensitive...
