"This synth has been fully serviced and upgraded, making it IMO the best and most musically usable Quadra you'll likely ever come across. Modifications installed are the Synthchaser Quadra MIDI kit (very few of these kits in existence, I believe there were only around 20 of them made/sold, and it is no longer available), the Synthchaser Quadra LED slider upgrade kit, as well as a custom modification which routes the external audio input through the Quadra's glorious stereo phase-shifter effect (normally the external input is simply there to mix in an external audio source, and isn't routed through any of the Quadra's processing signal path). For info on the Synthchaser kits, you can read up on them and watch video demos via their website: synthchaser [dot] com.
Additional notes:
(1) the Midi Out can alternately be switched to Midi Thru, via a switch on the board.
(2) I also had my tech install an on/off switch for the LED lights on the sliders, as seen in photo#9, under the "la tosca INC" sticker.
This thing sounds absolutely glorious, and everything, including keyboard aftertouch, is working perfectly. It was fully serviced at the same time as the Synthchaser kits were installed."

Waldorf 2-Pole Analog Filter

"From Waldorf:
'For some decades now, analog filters have had a deep impact on contemporary music. Since its very beginnings, Waldorf has been renowned for the quality of their excellent sounding analog filters.
Whether these were integrated in stand alone units, such as the 4-Pole, X-Pole or the AFB16, which enabled the world’s first analog plug-Ins, or were found inside our synthesizers such as the Wave, the Q+ or the Pulse – Waldorf filters have influenced the world’s sound for over two decades.
As a logical consequence, our exclusive analog filter technology is now available in this novel square box (unexpectedly matching the Rocket synthesizer). 2-Pole is giving the guitar player, the DJ, or the keyboard player access to the heart of the Waldorf sound – with an inspiring user interface with a one knob/one function philosophy. Spice up your live performances with dramatic filter sweeps that really cut through. Funk up your guitar licks by hooking a pedal controller to 2-Poles’ cutoff CV In or using the integrated envelope follower. Animate your pad sounds using 2-Pole’s LFO. But beware – no matter what you do with this tiny black box, make sure you set the levels to your amplifiers and speakers correctly, as 2-Pole is yet another beast from Waldorf – with love!'"
