"It's been recently serviced and is in perfect working condition. There is no noise whatsoever on it, and it is very loud too. You can really get some crazy sounds from this thing. Includes portabellabz cv/gate card, case and power cable. Sn 4746."
"Buchla 208c Easel Command. It is equips with the usb hub and midi. Comes with the Portabellabz 3 card hub, an Ems VSC3 oscillator card and the Portabellabz Stoned Marten card!"
"Hand-Built Buchla Easel by Constantin (Portabellabz)
This setup was meticulously hand-built by Constantin at Portabellabz, with all components in perfect working order.
Price: $8,000 USD (equal to my original investment). I’m open to reasonable offers. Location: Portland, OR. Local transactions are preferred, but I’m willing to ship if necessary.
Feel free to ask any questions—I’ll do my best to provide detailed answers.
Modifications and Features
208p Module (with Blue PCBs)
Flat red LEDs Tinijax connectors 1.2V/oct input On-off-on switch for CO CV Reverb mix CV input (replacing the rightmost pressure socket with a black banana socket) Dedicated LPG outputs (replacing panel signal out tinijax sockets) Infinite sustain functionality Noise generator (similar to the 208c; accessible via LPG2 when the routing switch is in the top position and the preamp is unpatched) Enclosure Features
Portabellabz ToolBox: Includes slew limiter Roland Klinkenberg Sequencer Aux Expander: Includes Mod Expander Custom Hard Case: Custom made by Road Cases USA Rare SAmodular Keyboard and Case
The 218 keyboard and case are from SAmodular, with specific modifications by Constantin to ensure peak functionality. Note that the keyboard is no longer in production, making this setup particularly unique and valuable.
This is a beautifully customized Buchla Easel, built and modified by one of the most respected names in the field. Don't miss this opportunity to own a one-of-a-kind instrument."
"EMS Synthi (Modified by Portabellabz)
All sounds are the Synthi - no external effects, recorded as a stereo pair.
This patch is using the filter in self oscillation as the bottom end and Oscillator 1&2 synced and into Ring mod. FIlter cut-off and Oscillator 1 are modulated by Osc3 (filt Square / Osc Triangle), Trapezoid out modulates Oscillator 2. Noise out is modulating Osc1&2 both noise and the Portabellabz S&H mod are used.
"bought new from papz/portabellabz a month or so ago. only taken out of packaging to take these pictures
The board brings the very sought-after typical MK1 sound with more low-end and a nice overdrive at high output levels.
The top part is a replica of the most recent PSU circuit with an added +11V rail for powering amp ICs as in MK1 units.
The bottom part is a replica of the original MK1 output amps and reverb driver circuits.
the board comes calibrated and ready to use, swapping with the original one is straightforward, no soldering or modification or calibration is required."
"an experiment sending long envelopes from the Portabellabz ADSR/LPG card to the Easels LPG 1-Timbre-Mod Index & Mod pitch. The Easel's EG is opening LPG-2. Enjoy.
"The Portabellabz ADSR/LPG Card can create longer envelopes than the Easel's EG. Here I haven't even maxed out the Decay, Sustain & Release parameters so I'm guess longer envelopes are possible. Enjoy!"
"Using the Portabellabz VCS3 Card as a third oscillator to compliment the 2 Easel oscillators. Also using the Portabellabz ADSR/LPG card to send the VCS3 audio to the LPG. Just a fun and rough experiment."
"My first day with the new Portabellabz ADSR/LPG Card. Just trying out a bunch of different things as I begin to learn it. Thought I'd share these impromptu explorations. When released they can be ordered here: https://www.portabellabz.be

"The card features a versatile analogue VC looping ADSR (AS3310 based), a preamp, a LPG and an output mixer.
It's an ideal companion for the VCS3 Card or Triglav's Radio Receiver one to add a full 3rd voice.
ADSR
LED : monitors the ADSR output
Pots Attack : sets the attack time Decay : sets the decay time Sustain : sets the sustain amplitude Release : sets the release time
Black banana CV inputs Attack : controls the attack time (attenuator trimmer easily accessible next to the pot) Decay : controls the decay time Sustain : controls either the sustain amplitude or the pulse length (see below), selected with a mini slide switch Release : controls the release time
