Great how much for just one?
How many do you have? I would only need three if I were to build the original models but now I'm more interested in the MSS2000 models as they have a sync input into to VCO's which is a great tool when making spatches.
Give me a rough price that you're looking for and I'll speak to the people at University. Just to note they are already crapping themselves about the price of this synth, not that this bothers me much.
Hope to hear from you soon.
