Keep looking in second hand computer shops and on ebay.

I got mine second hand for $5 at a computer recycle / reuse store - a  
MicroTech SCSI-DPAI

thats one way to do it if you have SCSI.. many emaxes do not.

I doubt it - you have to save the data to a disk, transfer the disk from
drive to drive, and then read.

with a fully working serial transfer system you can just blast samples
straight into the emax from your computer, audition them, edit them,
resend them, it'll be excellent! if there was a way to actually edit
emax parameters remotely, it'd open up the door for some great and
simple PC connected emax workflow.

that they all go for US$150 each... will eventually, but owch.... the
scsi upgrade kit I just installed only cost $50! and I'm unsure if my
emax is even worth $150 even with the SCSI upgrade I did.
