Yes I confirm

The 2 motherboards are different also.

The MFX3+ is a complete different machine.

The MFX3 (non-plus) had some of the old cards, but even then, you'd have to find 8 channel cards, waveform RAM, output modules, router, sampler, and probably have to build an analogue power supply. Far better to look out for an old series III on ebay. Even non-working, they can be fixed up and upgraded..
