"The Quad Mod Filterbank

95 were produced. Mine is #80. Legend goes Herman Gillis created the QMF at the request of the Chemical Brothers. They own #1. They wanted a compact way to connect multiple fliterbanks in a compact space. This is a very special beast to say the least. Listen to the chemicals if you want to know what it can do.

The receipt above shows I am the original owner and that I purchased it directly from Sherman.

History of the unit
Essentially been in a climate controlled box for 20 years. It's a long, winding, sad story. I have finally let go of the dream of someday using it. It's time to go. It was out of a box for maybe 8 months with 20 hours of use tops. I put velco on the bottom because I didn't want it to even move. I left the velcro in case you want to do the same. I have considered it one of only a few prized possessions in my life. (Including my Latronic Notron which I'm also selling.)
It has always been safe and protected humidity free.

I believe it is the QMF with the least amount of use in existence. I have no way of proving that, but my situation is pretty unique. Maybe Herman has one stashed away unused.

There was never a manual. Just the included flyer above in the photos.
The internal power supply is universal. It takes an IEC cable which I LEFT OUT for weight and because if you're like me you have too many already.

The QMF was carefully packed in a large double walled cardboard box.

If you're in Canada, Japan or Europe I might consider an offer since this is so rare, but it needs to be one I don't want to refuse.

Good Luck
Dwight"
