"This is the EIII Rack, not the XP or the XS model... Very few of these units were made and they are very hard to find. This EIII rack is the 8meg unit with analog filters and 16 note polyphony. Also has the 100meg internal hard drive with 77meg free (see pics).. Sample ANYTHING and it sounds rich and creamy. The filters and converters on this model are warm and amazing for drums. Arguably, the EIII is one of the greatest sounding samplers ever made. Used by Depeche Mode, Genesis and many, many more...

Unit condition- for it's age, this 25 year old sampler is in good condition. Some rack rash around the ears and top. One voice gone bad and a 2nd is developing a bit of hiss (both slight distortion... disabled in the setup). If you know about the EIII's, then you're aware that this is a common problem with the line. It may just be a matter of reseating the voice cards (see pic). This is a delicate piece of gear. So packing & shipping needs to be done very carefully to avoid any damage to the voice cards. I pack and ship FedEx ground... Sorry, only USA for now."
