Just to be clear on dates: As 208 knowledgeable people know, the original was designed and presented in 1973, not 1974. And likewise the BEMI version was really 2013, not 2014. I know this, but for some reason as I spoke I hedged toward the year when I figured most of them were shipped. Though really by the end of both those years -- 1973 and 2013 -- they were likely shipping. In hindsight I probably should have referred to those years. For most people, a minor detail.
Thanks, great video. I always wondered why the weird patch plugs. Now it makes sense. I have a Easel Command and it’s easily my favorite. Having a Buchla Modular, is my goal, it’s just … Indescribable!
That's an illusion. Smaller fonts probably. And fewer ins and outs increase the space between IO. With the 208C I increased the font size and more IO. The 1974 208 likewise had bigger text.
Oh wait i see what you are talking about now. The 2013/14 208 looks bigger because it’s closer to the camera. It’s got those vertical daughter cards it’s sitting on. I made the 208C skinny enough to fit in a 200e boat.

That 208 from 2013, is that wider or are my eyes playing tricks on me?
