Sequential circuits samplers

Hello P2K users.

A Prophet 2000/2002 memory expansion will not be as expensive as the one I did for the 
DSS-1. The Prophet 2000 was designed to accept 3 additional banks of memory, so all 
that is needed is more DRAM chips. With today's technology, it could be done with three 
256k x 16 EDO DRAM's. The DSS-1 upgrade was not only memory but a custom designed 
memory controller, as well as a whole new main CPU board with SCSI controller as well, 
hence the high cost.

I'll post when and if an upgrade is ready.

Tom
