Re: Auctions of interest: - even more!


 

I have one of these, too. I had to recently move it out of my house and
into a rental truck, then drive it to Chicago and unload it into storage a
month and a half ago. It is _incredibly_ heavy, pretty much like lifting
two CS-80s at once. The tone cabinet is even worse. I might mention it
is possible to move the thing with two people if you use an appliance
dolly. At first it looks like there is no way to use the dolly, but with
a bit of clever strapping it is really not that bad. Moving it without
anything wheeled takes at least 5 people.

I should note that the EX-2 (and EX-1) use digital wavetable oscillators
for their pulse, saw and sine tones. There are Yamaha IG00155 (close
relative of the IG00156) filter pairs and the EGs are, while not voltage
controlled, very similar in function to the GX/CS EGs slopes. There are
two oscillators per voice with detuning (celeste) and octave stops, and 7
voices per manual for the "orchestra" section (pedalboard gets 1 voice as
well). The flutes are 11 voices per manual though if I recall there is a
limit to how many upper and lower manual notes can be keyed together.

Leslie and chorus are done by the tone cabinet, which is a big, booming
thing that certainly lets one feel the 32' pedal stop. You can connect
two cabinets, and it has the socket needed for a real Leslie-branded
cabinet.

Eventually, I'll have it moved into my new house and set up to play
again.

don't think I could hide this in the house without my wife noticing.
