PLEASE: NO INTERNATIONAL BIDS. PLEASE ONLY BID IF YOU ARE LOCATED IN THE CONTINENTAL UNITED STATES. THANK YOU.SHIPPING VIA FedEx Ground: Flat rate of $100.00. Shipping rates have increased dramatically. I no longer have the original box as it was recently used to sell a second Emax II I owned. I will have the items professionally packed.I am the original owner of this Emax II keyboard. This is my all time favorite synth. I am only selling because I must, otherwise, I would likely be buried with it. This was originally purchased as a 2MB unit without internal hard drive back in the early/mid 90's.250 MB internal Hard Drive - Emax II OS supports up to 100 Banks, so plenty of space for 2MB banks. Currently loaded with about 50 banks of sounds. Most of these banks are from the original Emax library. I may try to add some raw waves and drum banks if I can make the time. Of course, the beauty of this style of instrument is that you can put any sound into it you wish either by recording into the sample inputs or various other transfer options such as the EMXP utility or using Midi SDS protocol with something like the C6 utility by Elektron (hint: Delay ticks =1, SDS Device ID = 2, SDS Handshake)Also including an external SCSI Zip 100 drive with a few disks for additional sample storage.The backlight for the original florescent backlit LCD has dramatically dimmed. Rather than replace with another inferior backlight, I installed a brand new blue OLED display. I looks beautiful. Photos do not do it justice.I have also created a solid hard drive mount based on the design of that used in my EIIIxp. The hard drive is a Quantum 250MB unit sourced from an old Apple computer. It is working flawlessly.I also have the original manuals in a three ring binder. This includes the printed SysEx documentation which I also purchased back in the 90's before documents were readily available on the web.I feel she is better now than ever. I hate to part with her but, it seems I must.Thank you for your interest.
