Analog Solutions Black Coffee

Someone posted an Analog Solutions Black Coffee for sale on AH along with a link to a review on Electronic Musician by none other than Mike Peake. Mike Peake was one of the guys behind the Alesis Andromeda. He was probably the most connected with customers and was a regular on AH and the-gas-station at one point. Title link takes you to the review. I rememember when the Black Coffee came out.

The asking price for the used unit was $499. New it ran for $595 and $339 minus midi and ready to be racked as a module. Not bad when you consider it's specs.
