The 208p


BEFORE CONTACTING ME WITH YOUR QUESTION
please read the infos below, the FAQ and the
build thread



The 208p respects the original 70s 208 design.
The
curved traces, circuits, layout, panel... as well as the unique sound and behaviour are completely preserved.


Pre-built 208p

I'll be happy to build a top notch plug and play 208p for you, with custom features to meet your own needs and preferences.

The basic price is 2850€ VAT excl. The lead time is 4 to 12 weeks depending on my other jobs pending.
Each pre-built 208p comes perfectly working and calibrated, deeply tested, with invoice and 3 year full warranty.

Contact me for more info.



DIY 208p

The 208p PCB set and panel are also available as a DIY project.
Own features and improvements make the build
easier, faster, safer and more straightforward than any other 208 DIY project (which doesn't mean that it's an easy build).
  • The boards are top quality and error free, no corrections, trace cutting or clumsy wiring are required.
  • Drop-in replacement boards for the ľA726 and DG200A are included in the set.
  • The soldermask prevents short circuits due to parts touching the traces or to solder bridges.
  • Silkscreen printing indicates both the parts values and names (the names remain visible when the parts are soldered in place).
  • Known issues from the original design, such as noisy phones out or MO bleeding into the reverb, are fixed on the boards.
  • The 5 sequencer LEDs resistors can be mounted to the bottom side to ease selection on test according to the LEDs used.
  • The audio outputs can be connected to extra jack sockets with a 3 pin header.
  • The footprint of the trimpots, sliders and switches works for various types.
  • +5v, Q and N grounds are immediately available on the program card edge connector for digital cards.
  • Other experienced builders and myself offer free, efficient and responsive support in the build thread.
