I got broken s3000xl, scsi fuse blown. screen, ram and 8 outs board are working ok, what parts from s3000xl can i put to the mpc 2000xl? I think ram is swapable, but what about [s]screen[/s] and output board?
upd: S3000xl screen larger than mpc's so it wont fit.=\ now only question about 8 outs board, looked on forums, and i think it capabale.. ill take some photos when done

have you gutted the s3000xl yet?

does your sound card, for your computer have a sp/dif input?


there is a "work around" for the scsi fuse issue, if you are interested?


the fuse is only $0.50, and any small electronics service center can replace it.

Here is a site explaining how to modify the sampler with a replaceable fuse.
you can DIY or any friend with soldering skills can get this done in just a few minutes.
