I have one Pulsar XTC 6DSP card for sale. Can be seen (heard) working (Rozenburg ZH, Nederland). Fixed price is 590 Euro. This excludes shipment costs and local taxes.
(retail price for The Netherlands at http://www.thomann.de is 875 Euro)
Anyone?

Morning Rob,

I am looking to buy the Pulsar II Plus. Is the XTC anything likes this ? ? Sorry I don't know much about the creamware product range.

Regards

Pulsar Plus is a 6 DSP board with an I/O plate. There is 3 or 4 different plates and the 'plus' is just one of them (with balanced analog I/O if I'm not mistaken)
The XTC has no physical I/O, but can interconnect thru asio with any other asio soundcard, thus providing it with I/O.
An I/O plate and an external AD/DA box is alway the best option I guess.
So, yes, I invite you to buy my XTC, but it's not what you're looking for :wink:
Cheers,
Rob

Ship 'for demo purposes' or as 'test equipment' :wink: This doesn't usually work when ordering w big shops, but should do fine for trading amongst individuals... Study material is less taxed.

Never thought of that myself, but my Unitor arrived like that from the US, had to pay like 5% on top :smile:

Hehe, great idea to label the package as demo material. Only downside of this is the insurance. If I want to send goods with insurance, the actual value will be on the package and I know that at least Dutch customs don't let themselves being fooled any further... You get to pay the real amount of custom rights and taxes, which is more than 20% here :sad:
@Basic_Pitch: I'll get a shipping and insurance quote for you this afternoon, and I'll see what the possibilities are, ok?

Sure thing mate,

I want to pair this up with a different I/O so I can use ProOne and MiniMax and some of the CW effects, if it works out financialy that is..

Cheers!

Well I checked with the local post office (operated by TPG) and they have no means of insuring packages when the value exceeds 450 Euro. They cAn send it but it will only be insured for E 450. That's not a risk I want to take, and I suppose you neither.
I checked DHL, but that costs about E 80,- !
I see no safe way, maybe you?
