"It was purchased in 2007. It is serial number 0001 as indicated on the serial number sticker and displayed on the LCD screen when powered on.It is in gorgeous cosmetic condition - barely a mark on it.
The Phoenix Edition have a reputation for stability issues. The unit for sale here occasionally needs to have its filter tuning and calibration/diagnostic menus run and then it is solid. This takes 5 minutes. This is especially true when moving the synth around to a new location. Once it stabilizes it sounds incredible and works beautifully. This is NOT a synth to gig with, but is better suited to living in a studio setting.
This auction includes MANY desirable extras:
Spare AFM filter board acquired direct from Waldorf Germany (a valuable back up!)
Official Waldorf "Q+ clock modification" kit w/ install instructions (I never installed it, but this supposedly addresses stability issues).
Original owners manual.
Original Q+ analog filter addendum sheet.
Original power cord.
2x custom Q+ wooden side panels (if you prefer a more vintage look.)
1x spare original Q+ black metal side panel.
Original shipping box with matching serial number labels.
Original Waldorf Q 256 RAM card.
The spare AFM daughter board has 4 VCF channels on it - the synth has four of these boards in it to achieve 16 VCF channels. Remember these boards accounted for the $2000 USD price difference between Q and Q+! I don't think you can get this spare part anywhere.
Waldorf Germany sent me the clock modification kit but I never installed it because I was fine with the synth's behavior as-is, but the new owner may wish to do so. This was Waldorf's official fix for the Phoenix issues. Again, I don't think you can still get this official kit.
International bidders are welcome. Shipping will be at exact costs."
