"Emax 1 SE rack mount analog sampler
SCSI2SD installed - 4 "drives" on one SD card with 35 banks.
Loads entire banks in around 2 seconds
Blue OLED display installed. Pads had been lifted from a previous attempt so the display has been wired in. Works perfect, just full disclosure. Was done professionally
Missing one slider cap, and power button cap
Sometimes there is a faint clicking from inside, it has been traced down to the power connector, which is a press fit style of wiring. If I press the wires back in with a small screwdriver the clicking goes away - it could easily be replaced with a new soldered connector easily enough.
The SCSI2SD is installed internally, but routed to the front with a thin ribbon cable to a full size SD reader, it's on the front with a 3M command strip which could easily be removed without damage to the front panel.
I will include a 3D printed case for the SCSI2SD in case you wanted to install it internally with a slim floppy drive. I like this system, easy to use full size SD cards.
SOUNDS GREAT! 8 Analog SEM filters. Full control through sysex and CC.
external SCSI connector installed but not hooked up internally.
Some small marks on the front panel, see photos.
Some screws are not firm, par for the course for something this old and easy enough to rectify with new screws."
