Thank you! Since I don't have original pictures of many of the effects mentioned in the chronology of Japanese multi-effects, it looks a bit sterile, though.

So if anyone can supply own pictures, I would be very grateful!

Things can be edited and added anytime.

Very nice, thank you for posting all the cool info!

I still have a UE305. I used to have two, bought them years apart from each other in the 90s. One was very clean and the other pretty played and a little rough. When I went to sell the rough one, I noticed that they had consecutive serial numbers! Wanted to keep it just because of that, but having $$ for other pedals won.

Consecutive serial numbers are fun, indeed! I think I have two KORG PME modules with consecutive numbers ...

It is still affordable. It is one of those vintage systems that is flying under the radar for many years now.
