I bought this Sequential Circuits MAX synth/controller back in 1986; I used it for a couple years to sketch ideas and make quick demos.
Since then it has sat in a closet and no longer makes sound.
In the spirit of recycling, I'm hoping someone can use it as a MIDI controller, a keyboard shell (to install your own synth inside) or for replacement parts: Thus the low starting bid.
Some collect the chips and use them for DIY synths, circuit-bending, and other projects, so this might be useful in that regard as well.
Details: - Keyboard powers on, but does not produce any sound. - All keys play evenly. - When powered up, two of six track lights come on; patch number light does not light up. - I don't use MIDI, so I did not test whether it can send/receive MIDI data. - All keys are present and work well. - Unit is solid, mostly metal (sides & keys are thick plastic), and well-made with no cracks or dents.
You are bidding on: - MAX keyboard, as is - original manual + power supply
