It doesn't seem that Scrooge is going to give me another lump of coal for the fire this year, so I'm going to unload some stuff. This gets to go because I have other devices that do most of it's functions, but none that's all in one like this. Imagine a Line6 POD, Electrix Filter Factory, MoFX with a drum machine built in! For the details go to: http://www.rogerlinndesign.com/ This is a REALLY fun toy and works great with both the Repeater or the EDP as a MIDI synch source. I've kept it all nice. I've never used it as a stompbox, it's always been on a table used in a gentle manner. I've got the manual, box, powersupply, and it's been upgraded to the latest OS. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=925644978&rd=1 I've scheduled it to start today at noon, but if someone offers me $210 (I get that number based on what it's been selling for on eBay) plus shipping, I'll stop the auction.
