More NAMM Shots on fdiskc
Title link takes you there. Click on NAMM Shows, Winter, 2007 when you get there. Looks like the Percussa Audio Cubes made an appearance which is very cool. If these ever come out I will be buying me some without a doubt.
Roland SH-101
b|c sent in a link to some shots he took of his mint Roland SH-101. This synth is in spectacular shape. According to b|c, he bought it from someone that put it in storage when they couldn't figure out how to get it to play more than one note; they bought it for for piano lessons. : )
What's interesting is in the comments of this post, b|c noted how the SH-101 battery case slightly sticks out when closed. You can see it in this second shot. Makes you wonder how many were broken by people trying to fix them.
Title link takes you to more including a couple of the box. For a second, I thought it was the same box shot as the previous post, but it's not. I've never seen the box before and now it comes up twice in a row. Odd how that happens. Things usually come in threes, so maybe I'll get to pick one up soon.

The AM2000
Remember the AM4000, ARP 2500 clone? Well the AM2000 is a replica of the classic E-MU Modular.
"Overview The AM 2000 Modular Synthesizer is a replica of the original E-mu Systems Modular synthesizer that was manufactured in California by E-mu Systems from 1972 to 1980. Over 125 were built, and the last model was given to Scott Wedge when he left E-mu Systems in 1993 - he still has it.
The modules were updated with new circuit ideas during their life time, and Dave Rossum exploited SSM chips in many of the later module revisions from 1976 onwards. Some of the circuits are unique designs, not available from any other manufacturer. For example the Resonant Filter and the Universal Active Filter (an improvement over the ARP 1047 filter show cased in the ARP2500 Modular)."
What's cool is it's almost complete! Title link takes you to more info on The Emulator Archive.
Original E-MU Modular shot via MIDIzoo's NAMM set (go there for a much larger shot).
