I'm borrowing a decent digital camera from work, so I'll take some shots of the
Obie from each side, close ups of the makers label, and shots of the interior.
As for the processor board, you could be correct about it being troublesome. I've
never played another OB-X, but on mine the editing can be a little bit
temperamental, requiring multiple adjustments to each potentiometer before the
changes will actually take.

Now if I could only stop my cat from walking on the keys ... the critter has
caused four of them to need repairing so far!
