Re: [xpantastic] VFD poll on Matrixsynth

2008-08-06 by PeWe

Hi, - great !

I´ve found this group today and joined ´cause I´m using a US Xpander model professionally since end of the 80th after I sold my OB-8, toured w/ it over germany/europe, UK and Tunisia,
- never had a fault w/ the exception of only one failing CEM3372 which was relatively easy to replace.
As the 1st owner, for me, this synth is a very reliable machine.
I´m looking for spare part displays as also CEM 3374 since 2 years and I´m interested in rotary encoders (originals or a replacement solution) too ...
My Xpander works and the displays are o.k. up to now, but 2 of the rotarys become a bit weak now.
So, if anyone knows about replacements, please let me know.

I voted for 3 displays already ...

Let´s hope for the best and greetz to all the members here in the group.

:-)

1) Matrixsynth put up two polls on his site to help us out and
mentioned this group and the poll envia94 started re:VFD's

2) if you are interested in the possibility (only a possibility, as of
right now) of buying new VFD's for your Oberheim M-12 or Xpander,
please take the poll in the 'poll' section here so we can keep a
running tally, as well

3)thanks to moderator envia94 and Matrix for the help
