Re: [emulatorII-list] Re: Storing E2 on its side

2008-10-10 by Brent Elliott

I actually store mine on the side and move it around quite a bit, and it does just fine.  I've never had anything come loose over the years and I'd say I relocate my EII about once a month. I guess milage varies on that, but once a synth gets to the point where you're afraid to tilt it, you've got to reassess your fun/hassle ratio.

Yes I do have a lack of space--in fact many studios store their 
keyboards on there side due to storage issues
The E2 has a nice hard case--I was worried about 5.25 disk drive 
mainly going out of alignment
Surely the risk of IC's and molex connectors coming loose is very very 
low
