Anybody heard of a "soundquality upgrade" for the EIII?

[dvdborn]

Have a look at the eBay auction: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=130291806862

At the bottom the seller mentions an extra "soundquality upgrade". What could he mean by that?

I saw that also would like to know what he means!!!!

How can the EIII sound any better, LOL!!!

if I had to guess the sound quality upgrade is sample banks of some sort i doubt a hardware mod, but i could be wrong.

He answers an ebay users question as follows.

Q:    What are the sound upgrades you have?   Mar-06-09
A:    Hello! I don't have a certain upgrade. I can design any upgrades to virtually every synths and gears. I'm an audiophile man redesigning high-end adds and components to these machines. This one has a lot to be done depending on your pocket.


so he claims he is an audiophile who redesigns then states

Punchy sound, analog warmth due to the SSM-analog filters, compact, handy workstation, superb layout.

but eiii uses curtis filters..

whole thing seems very odd, dubious to say the least

[dvdborn]

Yeah, the whole auction looks fishy to me.

I contacted the guy via ebay ask a question; asked him about the mod and gave him a link to this thread

he mentioned a "buy it now price",
but never answered...

[evoluzione]

now he wants to trade in for a synclavier
or fairlight...

And he mentions it in the same line as a trade for a "large Behringer mixing console". Oh well, he can try.
