Slawie,
 
I don't mind, but I really don't understand the question you are asking.
 
I know that Daryl had this one for many years and I would pester him periodically for it. He said he wasn't ready to part with it.  He eventually put me on to someone he knew that had one.  So I got in touch with him and we struck a deal.  It was kind of a strange situation because the person I bought it from kept calling it a pre-amp.  If I remember right, he told me that it may need repair because he could not get it to work.  I guess if he was trying to use it as a pre-amp, then it was busted!  I bought it for an odd price, I think it was like $130.00 or something.  
 
Is that what you are asking? If not let me know!
 
Fast forward a few years and my IN-2 sat in flood water for a couple of weeks.  It was in a rack in a studio in the deepest part of the Katrina flood in New Orleans.  Once the national guard let me back in the neighborhood, my nephew and I broke the door down just so I could go in and get the IN-2!!!  Also in my rack was one of the first Alembic pre-amps made.  It's an F2, the predecessor to the F2-B.  I hosed the salt water out of the IN-2 and the F2 and both still work perfectly today.  
 
Both VERY sturdy pieces of gear.

Michael,
I made an offer which was more than $130.00. Thanks for the
info. I remember you were affected by Katrina.  
How is it going for you and those around you. I don't mind
High jacking my own thread

Time for my regular bump.  
Maybe the folks at Alembic will get sick up and fed of mposting and break one out of the archives.
At least maybe a schematic diagram so I can build my own!?!?!

Do add names to this wish list... After the DS-5 and DS-5R with our new sheetmetal fabricator, I'm going to try really hard to make the IN-2 a reality.

Slawie is doing the happy dance right now!!  It's been a long time coming.  
 
I suspect there will be quite a few lining up for this one.

How would you guys be using this?  Not quite sure I wrap my head around it yet. Would it be of any use to me in conjunction with my Rogue into F-1X/SF2 combination?

Well Mica, that is great news....
Well I had sold mine to Jimy some time ago but must admit that I would also be happy to buy a new one when available....
Mica, plse count me in....

I think that this three should end here and I will open a new one for expressions of interest in the IN-2 for purchase
