via the seller: "I have owned this beauty since around 1995, and it was completely serviced 2 years ago. At this point, everything appears to work, any broken j-wires were replaced, so all keys work. The factory programs were missing when I got it, so it only has a few sounds programmed into the 32 patch memory. No problem saving and creating programs, and even the cassette interface seems to work, although I haven't tested it. I am pricing it to sell, as I am moving to a smaller space and no longer have room for it. (Compare prices for similar units on eBay). Arguably the best sounding version compared to the Ob-X and OB 8 series, I used it only for recording in a smoke free house. It is in good condition for it's 35 or so year age, and it will ship in an Anvil flight case. ( Note: the case needs new foam - it will be wrapped in plastic to keep it clean during shipping.)"

Rare Synclavier HOP Hand Operated Processor W/Interface Card +User Manual

"Note: I've checked this over 12/3/2015 and tested it with a Synclavier II mini-system, all the switches are working properly and everything has tested good. It has only the slightest scuff on one corner of the case, too small to even see in a photograph. It is absolutely as new.

This is the rarest and most sought after piece of Synclavier hardware, the HOP hand-operated processor. Originally designed for internal company use debugging new software and designing new interface cards, it later proved to be indispensable for anyone trying to maintain Synclaviers and troubleshoot Synclavier problems. Any Synclavier technician must have one of these at all times. TRY2FIND1.

Perfect condition, tested today and working perfectly, no broken switches.

Includes the control box with built-in cable, and the special interface card that plugs into the computer bin of the Synclavier.

Using this hardware is always the first step to take in trying to start a dead Synclavier system that has been sitting unused for many years, and even more so for a Synclavier II to that does not have a Macintosh or terminal display. The light activity on the LED panel always assists me greatly in knowing what the floppy drive is doing, what the Winchester drive is doing, and what brain activity there is going on inside the system, if any at all. That usually leads me to give attention to some physical piece of hardware, such as physical connections, looking for broken wires, loose or corroded connectors, or power supply issues. Beyond that, it gives me the crash codes so I know what card might be causing the problem and should be swapped as the next step and getting the system going again. If someone comes to hire me to fix a dead system from far away, if they have one of these units, it can provide me with a lot more information remotely, possibly preventing the need to ship the system to Los Angeles for a hands-on repair.

One of the photos shows the unit and the built-in cable and the interface card and user manual, and the other photo shows the way the unit is actually used, with the interface card inserted in an empty slot in the computer bin of an upgraded Synclavier II.

Also included is the photocopied company user manual that lists the device codes to tell you what piece of hardware the malfunctioning system is crashing to. The manual is even more rare than the hardware!

The bad news? The Synclav.com Synclavier shown in the photo is not included, it is for display purposes only!"

"Here is a classic and sweet sampler in amazing condition. The legendary EMAX II. This Emax II is in full working condition... ALL keys, buttons, sliders, jacks, disk drive works as they should with no operational issues. As you can see from the pics, it looks fantastic as well. It has had VERY little use. The keys feel new too! Comes with a few disks and a Getting Started manual."

via the seller: " Original owner (recording studio)
He owned this since it was new. It is in excellent working and physical condition.
I just had the battery replaced in the unit.
I have a 14 disc (5 1/4 floppy) library of sounds with back-up copies that I made and a box of unused floppy discs.

I do not have the Commodore 1541 floppy drive that is used with the SP-12 but I searched online and they are available."
