"This item here is a Linn Sequencer manufactured back in 1985 prior to Linn Electronics [LE] closing down and Roger Linn moving on to develop the MPC-60 for Akai. This sequencer has the last latest revision operating system installed before LE closed down; 5.17. I was able to test this disk drive with some floppies that I picked up the other day and it does in fact work. These drives are very rare and cost over one-hundred dollars when you find them. The internal memory of the unit can hold 10440 notes. Using the disk drive, you can store 110,000 notes or more according to the Forat website. This is a prime example of awesome workmanship by Roger Linn and shows that he had the sequencers nailed before he started working for Akai. This unit here excels and gives you plenty of options. It's simple to use, as easy as using a tape cassette deck.
The LCD is crisp and the backlight works great. It passes the memory test as well. The operating condition is excellent. The cosmetic condition on the face is excellent, looks great mounted. The chassis is sort of beat up as you can see. The rear of it looks pretty good too! In this auction you will receive:1x LinnSequencer [Linn Sequencer] 32 Track MIDI Recorder
1x power chord
9x ds/dd disks for use with the disk drive, there were 10, but one disappeared somewhere from the little one. ;)
2x floppie drive cleaner disks and no solution, but an empty solution bottle.
1x copy of the www.forat.com/sequencer/ information/instructions printed out."
Built in drawer.
