Hi All,

I have uploaded some pictures of my MFX Stuff to the photos section :

There is an MFX Keyboard, serial number 004,
There is a breakout box, presumed to connect the MFX to a fairlight to a non MFX CMI.
A IEEE 488 cable : same connectors as the sockets on the MFX : dont know about the pinout.

The MFX and breakout box came from a guy I bought some memory boards from, he didnt know if they worked, and I have never tried them. The bare wires are presumed to be power, as they had + 15v and -15 volts stickers on them.

So, Im open to offers on these : I know a couple of people are interested, but as Tony asked first, Im going to let him have first option, then James, as this seems the gentlemanly thing to do :)

I dont know what to charge with regard to price, as Ive no idea if they work, or how they work. Im pretty open to what any one would pay for them.

So Tony if you could confirm if this is useful to you, then thats great, we'll work something out, or else if its no good, James Ill be in contact.

Cheers,

Arron

It has just trailing bare wires instead of a proper cable, and from others comments, appears to be a test/demo unit, supplied with a breakout box to connect to series III without MFX backplane cards.

Might be looking for CMI music kbd, Series 3 qwerty kbd with graphics tablet, MFX2 controller, Waveform Supervisor card etc, or any other major components, I just picked up an MFX2 rackmount tower configured as MFX3+ and looking to swap it out as a Series 3/MFX2 configuration running 11.39. I'll be looking to shift the existing cards if anyones interested, such as Waveform Executive card and related I/O. Specs to follow. PS. I'm not looking to sp end silly money, I did allthat in the 90's...Thanks in advance.
