"It has been fully tested and it works great! The LCD backlight works too! It's in good cosmetic condition - the front panel is especially very clean - please see the photos attached to this listing. (There are a few minor scratches from normal use on the top & back of the unit, and some tape residue on the top & side. The rubber middle portion of the power button is missing - but this does not impact functionality). Note: There are some pop-noises that occur when using the main outs - to avoid this, the headphone output jack must be used instead, which works great & sounds pristine! Comes with the power cord, OS 2.13 floppy disc, a free external zip-drive with a top-quality 25-pin cable. Also included for free is a zip-disc full of great patches to get you started!

NOTE: This unit uses an external zip-drive to load patches. This is extremely beneficial, as it far quieter than the original drive (the original drive has an extremely loud & noisy fan that constantly runs). The zip drive remedies this and it of course increases file-size capacity! How to use: just load the OS (which is on an old-school floppy disk) using the floppy drive. Once it loads, the floppy can be removed & the fan turns off. At that point, patches can be loaded from the included Zip drive / Zip disk library. Super fun & smooth workflow!"
