It is with great regret that I've decided to sell my EPD AS IS. It has been sick for a while and I'm in the process of recording a new album and putting together a live show and just can't deal with it anymore. Here are the facts: Oberheim Echoplex Digital Pro. Currently with V 5.0 Roms (original 3.2 Roms included) Includes perfectly working and almost new obie foot pedal. Memory upgraded (125 @ 1 loop on boot up). Has had the compression input mod done. I've used this on and off again for years. Don't even know how long I've had it (at least 5 probably a LOT more). it looks fine cosmetically (missing one knob "lid" which is how it was when I got it). I gigged with it maybe twice otherwise it's been in my studio or the rack since. I have no idea what these are going for or even if you can buy them anymore. I know I paid a fortune for it and it worked ok for a while but now it's developed some bad habits: 1. There is an annoying digital screech that comes up occasionally when you play with the input or output knobs. Sounds like a scratching noise not related to a bad knob. if i set the knobs and forget it it works better but sometimes still happens. 2. Occasionally it spontaneous reboots itself. Not always but enough that I can't trust it for live use anymore. Oddly I think it didn't have this problem with the 3.2 ROMs I could be wrong again of course. These problems could be anything but as should be apparent by now I am SICK of this thing. Years ago I begged and pleaded to find a qualified tech who was PROFESSIONAL and would just FIX this %$#@in thing (regardless of price) I never found anyone and of course Oberheim had the WORST customer service of ANY company I've ever dealt with. This may have changed (I know it was before Viscount took over) but I still couldn't find anyone who said they were very familiar with the unit. So, I'm dumping this mofo. It has incredible potential and as you can read in the archives there is NOTHING as cool as this when it's working. And it did work fine for quite some time. I'm asking $500 for everything (unit, pedal, cables, both sets of ROMS). of course the unit is sold AS IS. I have a ton of references (hell I'm *still* selling the Looper's Delight CD#1 if you want to find me) and will pack well for free and charge only actual shipping costs. If that price is not reasonable please make a serious offer. Keep in mind I paid a LOT more for all this and I'm VERY upset at how it turned out so please be serious and no low balls. It DOES work, just not enough and my lack of patience is your gain. Will answer any/all questions. The unit is sold to the first person to confirm the sale via phone at my asking price so please send your Phone # to speed things up. Epilogue: If anyone out there does know an HONEST and COMPETENT Echoplex tech then please let me know. Also if anyone knows where I can get the schematics that would also be appreciated as my local tech is good but won't touch it without them. Perhaps I'll try one more time although at this point I'd just as soon sell it and forget it ;( Thanks for looking! ___________________________________________________________________ HELP WANTED PRODUCTIONS - Http://www.HelpWantedProductions.com "Bringing you the best in Organic Electronic music since we started..."
