"::: RARE! 1986 Emu Emulator II+ Model 6060 sampler/synthesizer :::
This machine has been fully serviced/tested/refurbished and in all-around excellent working condition. Cosmetically it is in very nice condition with some light scuffing to the shell corners, and also some wear to the top of the Lexan panel to mention. All SSM voices, buttons, sliders, pots, ins/outs, keys, midi, sampling function, filters, pitch/mod wheels, LCD, backlight, both floppy drives, 1MB RAM memory, RS422 connection to Macintosh are all working as they should. This EII+ has just gone-through an extensive servicing/cleaning of button contacts, pcb's, pots, keyboard assembly, sliders, general calibration/testing, and a brand-new blue-green backlight installed. The EII+ was introduced with not only a new font-style, it also introduced the 1MB upgrade (not to be confused with the mis-leading EII "Memory Option" piggyback board, which is simply the remaining 256k needed to properly run a standard 512MB Emulator II // this "Memory Option" piggyback board is actually removed when upgrading a 512MB Emulator II to an EII+ model, and is no longer needed). The 1MB of the EII+ allows the user to "toggle" between "Bank A" and "Bank B" with the double-click of the "0" button, which is extremely useful for immediate access of additional patches. The EII+ also has substantially quieter 5.25" floppy drives (Panasonic) vs. the earlier EII's with 5.25" Shugart floppy drives. Also "yellow" LED's on the Panasonic drive instead of the "red" Shugart LED, as well as no set-screw for the disk-latch mechanism of the Panasonic drive. If you are looking for a perfectly functioning/calibrated/tested Emulator II+, don't miss this one!! The Emu Systems Emulator II is the holy grail of 8-bit samplers, using 8 x SSM2045 analog filter chips, for the most beautiful of sounds!!"
