Hi im new to fruitys so can anyone tell me what a one stop board is plz as im after a m1b for a maygay machine and i spotted these one stops and wondered if this was the same thing as m1b using a different name. thx all in advance. regards mick.

Mick, I did reply to your previous post. The One Stop was used in Epoch I believe and will not work in your machine. You will need M1A or M1B boards for your Great Escape machine. This is legacy stuff so you will need to be patient and wait for one to come up, or buy another M1A/B machine and remove the MPU and other parts you need to restore your Great Escape.

Good luck

Hi Dougsta so sorry if im a bit thick on this. I spotted them for sale on ebay and they looked the same so thought it may have been listed under a different name. thx again for your help regards Mick.

Hi Baz thx for the info i have now spotted a m1b for sale £60 half an hour away from where i live plus i am going to collect a second faulty great escape on sunday so can compare and swap bits around to hopefully make a good one from the two. regards mick.

You are more than welcome Mick, and don't worry - everyone has to start somewhere. Great news that you have spotted an M1 board nearby - make sure it is confirmed working by the seller so you don't get sold a dud. It's a good move to buy another M1 machine so you can swap out various parts.

Let us know how you get on.

Yes i agree its more reliable than epoch but the price for the eclipse stuff is just silly money.

I find mpus and psus die quite quick on eclipse stuff, least with epoch you can re-solder a psu or lamp driver board to keep running untill you get chance to buy a spare part.

Eclipse mpus are about £100 to buy were as you can get a whole machine for about £150+ on ebay.

Im selling most of my old eclipse stuff off now as im only buying £70 jackpot awps, if they dont sell i will just strip for spares.

The only downside of ebay is theres alot of trust needed with spare parts.

And reguards to Starleisure ??? who are they, lol.

Will do Dougsta im hoping i can get a good one out of the two. I have never actually played the great escape but heard it was a good machine so i cant wait to get it up and running.
kind regards Mick.
