Kraftwerk's QUASIMIDI POLYMORPH PROTO Up for Auction?

via this auction

"I am selling one - ultra-rare - Quasimidi Polymorph - PROROTYPE -Analog Emulation Synth. This Prototype was released before its official launch 1997 towards Betatesters and Projects. In this particular case we see the one that has been given to a very famous german electro-group. I received this one a couple years ago as a gift from one the members i worked for. I want to switch my gear-acquisitivenes to a new hobby and so for decided to sell this one into thankful hands.

Technically and musically we have a 4in1-Synth with inbuilt- Stepsequencer and rich possibilities for structuring Patterns. I like the fact, that it can -Stand-Alone- be very complex and twisted. Just like an Electribe, but not as flat as i think those Electribes sound. The Control is intuitive and fast. The Mixsection down right invites to realtime arranging. With this Gear you can just start and find yourself in senseful patterns. The Sound generators are dirty - cool - as well as "liquid" - even cooler - i personally hear a lo-fi version of the novation supernova synth - like Sounds in Aphex Twin´s "Windowlicker" or Kraftwerk´s "Expo2000".

What leads to one special feature for supposed fans of one particular famous german Electroband: I sell the Gear as i received it from the first OWner: The gear contained no preset patterns when it was delivered to the original owners. there ARE like 35 patterns saved. I saved none of those myself. Actually i stored this dustfree and dry in my gear collection. I just tested it before i took the shots. The Display shines healthy ( see pictures ) . There are no Expansions or single Outs installed - PROTOTYPE."
