I don't know how anyone would know this stuff unless they were part of the
original EML company or had access to their records.
A few years ago I tried to track down the origin of the Matrix Pump (see
photo archive). There's one section of it I have never been able to figure
out, and another part that is clearly unfinished. I managed to find the
fellow who received it from an EML employee. He had little memory of any
details beyond that. I tried to get him to help me reach the employee but
he had lost all contact info. He claimed that the employee also had a
storage garage with some other EML treasures...l'm kind of skeptical there,
I think maybe the guy was enjoying leading me on a bit.
There is a list somewhere giving estimates on how many of some of the EML
products were made. I forget where it is, Maybe the Synth museum. I don't
think the 300, etc. are included in that list. I even wonder how accurate
that list can be since the EML serial numbers don't give a reliable
count. Would like to know how they arrived at those quantities...
