Re: DPX-1 sample player

2007-11-02 by somethingkillingyou

I'll look out for these, thank you very much for your advices!

I just got to wait some days until it will come back from repair, 
hoping that the problem was just the power supply and it will work 
fine then... 
I got some sample disks that came together with it, so I can test if 
it is fully working...

meanwhile I'll do my homework ;)


p.s. I forget to mention that it is rev. 2.2... 
I believe that's a good thing ;)
