via this auction"This is a digital MIDI synthesizer without the keyboards. This unit will expand your keyboard instrument and it's capabilities into a new dimension of sound and features! With the EX 20 Expander, you have added virtually eight additional keyboards to your present instrument which can be controlled through MIDI from your present instrument, a sequencer, or a computer. This Expander is perfect for not only the keyboard player but also the Hammond or theater organ enthusiast. Not only does this unit have bank after bank of sounds, you can also create sounds with it using the drawbars.
I purchased this unit new and have hardly used it. Its capabilities are beyond my skill level. I have used it connected to a church organ that has MIDI and also a computer with MIDI. It has only the normal wear commensurate with its age. The unit comes with its power cord. The cartridge inserted in the lower right-hand portion of the unit does NOT come with the unit. These RAM and ROM cartridges will be auctioned off separately as they work with other Wersi digital instruments. The Wersi EX 20 MIDI Expander has significant capabilities even without these cartridges." You can find the seller's other listings here. Update: You can watch video of another one here.
No idea how it sounds but that's one cool looking front panel!
ReplyDeleteIts nearly impossible to program without a full manual ( which I don't have). I've been tracking down information on this one for several months since I purchased mine.IIRC Wersi told a US rep NOT to include a programming manual because they wanted to sell sounds to the buyers.
ReplyDeleteOne of the Waldorf guys knows how to program these, he commented he was one of the few people that could IIRC. But I can't remember his name. You could post as an off topic in the Waldorf list
ReplyDeleteHeard back from Achim on the Waldorf list: "That would be Wolfram Franke (the EX-20 is the expander version of the
ReplyDeleteMK1). He spilled the beans in this interview:

And no, having the full manual doesn't really help you much further
with programming it.
