The Saje Memory was also a digital controlled console of that era, but i've never seen a picture of one?

I wonder what kraftwerk albums were tracked on that board. How did you come across it? Does it have a Kling Klang sticker on it? Any mods done to it by Ze Robots?

I think "Tour De France" and possibly "Electric Café" judging by the date. It was delivered to them after Computer World, so stuff after that. I think they had a 400 series MCI before that.
I got it via a dealer in Germany who often had bits of theirs and it has all the documentation included the delivery check sheet marked to Kraftwerk.
No Kling Klang sticker that I have seen. TBH I haven't looked at it for a while as I haven't installed it yet.
I must hook it up and put a couple of John Hardy Pre's in it...
Mods, not sure. Maybe some switching and remote controls....

For me at least.

Is this console the refurbished after shot of the one that was posted a couple months ago?

With a 1000+ posts, I'm sure I must have seen you around here before. But somehow "dlmorley" just never registered in my brain. At the risk of acting like a giddy fool, I just have to say you are a musical hero of mine. Thanks for all your great work! thumbsup

Thomas

Anyhow, back to sexy consoles ->

Wow, that is a beautiful API...I'd put in my vote for that one as well. Size isn't everything...

I'm not sure if it's sexy or not!
Isn't that the all tube desk? If you don't think it's sexy, at least you can say it's hot!
