Slawie, Thanks ___ I was really waiting for you to scoop this critter!

Then it seemed to linger on eBay ___ and after the conversation with the seller who is a nice guy , who had sincere concerns regarding its functional safety, and possibility of complications due to its age ,SO ____ I ended up with it. I also did not want any nefarious entity that copies Alembic products to get their hands on it and replicate it for monitary gain before Alembic Inc. even gets a chance to release the NEW IN-2 ! Thus ; I sent out my Raven to fetch it ___LOL ,

Actually it is even still in transit __!
The pic above is from the seller .

Wolf,

I did make an offer early in the piece but that was not accepted. I was going to place a second offer but was foiled by my own stupidity by not checking frequently enough. I thought that it been sold as the listing suddenly disappeared from view.

I was imagining that any offer I would make was not going to be near the mark because the asking price was so high. Oh well live and learn.

I am having my series I electronically reworked at the factory soon so I might as well have my budget go toward the instrument and wait for the new IN-2's to be released by Alembic Inc.

Congratulations on your Unicorn Breath acquisition.

I imagine that you will be doing the electronic and functional validation yourself and maybe not sending it back to the Mother-ship.

If it is at the factory when I'm there in July the scene may be something like this;

Replace the guitar for an IN-2

What is an IN-2?

sonicus · « **Reply #24 on:** May 09, 2014, 09:23:42 AM »

Hello Jonathan,
We jammed at a Northern California Alembic gathering a while ago. The short answer is essentially; A power supply. ___Passive DI, ___Mult box , patch switching & Mode switch, signal router for Series Alembic instruments . The signal routing and DI features can be utilized with any other instrument including ones with passive design.

The Alembic Description is better then mine :

I hope the interest shown by club members on this eBay unit help demonstrate the value in a new production run of the IN-2.
