"The Microwave itself has been recently serviced and re-capped by Abell Audio and given a clean bill of health. The Microwave has also been updated to the final version 2.0 software update. This is the Rev A version of the Microwave, which has the anodized finish and the Analog Curtis CEM 3389 voltage controlled filter and voltage controlled amplifiers. The anodized finish is much more durable than the painted Nextel finish of the Rev B. The differences between the CEM 3389 (rev A) and CEM 3387 (rev B) are subtle enough to likely be overlooked in the mix, but I have found the Rev A to have the ability to be slightly more snappy, and the Rev A has been reported to be more crisp and more open.

The Microwave comes with the original bound Performance Manual, bound Programming Manual, bound Addendum to Firmware revision 1.20 (now obsolete due to the 2.0 upgrade, but included for the completest), and the bound Microwave Software-Update Ver. 2.0 manual.

Included is the Access Microwave Programmer that brings the Microwave 1 more toward the knob per function school. A bound manual for the Microwave Programmer is included.

Also included are four professional soundset cards. Two are from Waldorf and are programmed by Dave Gould and Rob Papen. The remaining two are the two Metro Sound releases.

The remaining two cards are custom built memory cards, each of which holds 6 banks worth of programs. The standard memory cards for the Microwave 1 hold only 2 banks. These two cards hold the equivalent to 6 standard memory cards. The original documentation for the cards is included..."
