Re: FZ Shareware Library - 2 Meg Piano

2011-08-25 by .... ...

Hi,

I just bought an FZ10M and some of the sound library disks came with it, including the 2 Meg Piano files.

Unfortunately, the disk drive on it is in bad shape, and will only load one or two disks out of the set.  I don't know if the other disks are bad, or whether it's just some have samples too big to load before the drive has errors.

Since the FZ won't load the 2 meg piano, or many of the other disks, I can't do a sample dump to the computer.  I do believe however, that I could perhaps make disk images using omniflop.  Omniflop claims to have some support for the FZ20M, and I think the only difference between the FZ10M and the 20 is a scsi board.

I'll see if I can make a disk image from the disks tonight.  If omniflop with format a blank floppy with FZ format, and write a disk image to it, then maybe this will work.

I'm looking for the 2 Meg Piano files in particular (think they were disks 68 A & B in the shareware library). Is the process for transferring a 2 Meg file with FZDump the same as a 1 Meg file? Can anyone help out?

Move to quarantaine

This moves the raw source file on disk only. The archive index is not changed automatically, so you still need to run a manual refresh afterward.
