Hi all-
It's kinda correct. It may be a bit taller than even the M4000. Is it heavy enough to be a roadies' nightmare? I'm thinking it probably is a gutted midi keyboard, with a few knobs and lights for looks (who knows, they may work). I didn't see anything like a Digital Mellotron or Memotron rack, but that may be inside the box. It's fun to speculate, and I have often thought of making one based on the available midi rack-mount units. I guess one of the melly midi boxes can control 2 keyboards, so a quasi-MK2 would be possible.
As an aside, I've also thought that an M400 in a Mission style quarter-sawn oak cabinet would be cool. But that's me.

Thanks
for the heads-up! It does seems strange. Is it quite the
right dimensions for a 400? It looks like a
"correct" cabinet, but what kind of keyboard is
that? Don't KNOW of any 'Tron with a semi-full
keyboard, but we don't know what we don't know,
right? It does have the right 3 main knobs, as you pointed
out, and a red-lit "M" at the top, but no visible
power switch or track selector. Have to do more searching...
hmmm...
Cheers! Berington
