Some say it was with is tongue. Anyway it’s still working, he urinated on it just after. Pure Hendrix flavour!

He does say “or best offer”.

I bet if you offer $50,000 he’ll accept

A few resistors, diodes, and a couple of large caps, BNC and RCA connectors on a homemade PCB. Depending on the caps, no more than $20-$30.

Can’t afford it sadly

Or is it you can’t afford not to? :smiling_imp::sweat_smile:

You’re right. Am I serious about this music thing or not? Have to face the hard questions. The $50k purchase of this machine will prove to me that I have what it takes to make it. Going to speak with the bank now.

…9000 bux!?..
not even, if that mod would offer digital single outs for all 8 stereo trax…

so wait a minute…the next ot will be capable of doing so…no idea when it’s coming, but it will…
and highest price entry for it will be around 1600 bux maxed out…

I sincerely doubt there will be a “next ot”

…i still got hope…

but all my “20 or at least 21 it will come for sure” happy announcing moments are shut off dead quiet these days for sure…

if this company would’nt have grown that much in the last few years and the old team would still exist or be in charge, we would have seen a new ot a while ago already…
but, well, times are changing…

so let’s look forward to the next groovebox something…which will be totally ok…one last, next time…

but anywhere beyond that, i hardly doubt i’ll keep up my almost unconditional respect and love to this ex-nerd company…

I’ll settle for adjusting the visibility of the LEDs on the mkII. It already does far more than I know how to use.

“Everything has a price” - Yep, a dirty ass, MK1, modified “hacked” OT DOES have a price, and it isn’t anywhere near 10k.

I am the person that has this item for sale on Ebay. I read somewhere that the the guy wasn’t willing to do this mod anymore and I couldn’t remember who he was. I jacked up the price to the point where I would be happy if it sold or not. I later halved the price when I found a way to do most of what I want with my MPCX in a new OS. If this guy is really still doing this mod I might lower the price again but I’m still not sure if I want to live without it yet and don’t want to take a chance no one is doing this mod if/when I change my mind later? That is why my price is still high you see? The mod makes a world of difference when you have the right converters. Why does Elektron not make a pro version? Hipsters don’t really care or what?
