Patches and discussion for Ensoniq VFX family

Hi Neil, thanks for the quick reply.

I have the disks, that's no problem. The only thing is, can you drive use Low Density disks? It should be able to, but if you go into Device Manager (persuming you're on Windows) and find out the model number. Then just search that into Google and find out.

To write them you'd have to use EDE which is a free program. I can send you a floppy with the required program and files on it (you'd have to boot from the disk). I'd put instructions in a letter.

I'd do it myself, only my drive doesn't work with this (it's USB).

I'd send a couple of disks, just to run off an extra copy. If you want, I could throw in a couple of extra disks to make yourself a couple of copies (kust I bought them only a couple of moths ago at £1 each, so I'd have to knock off a pound per disk).

If all of that is fine then please do tell me how much you want me to pay. At first I'll send half of the amount, then the rest when the job is done.

Hope to hear from you soon,
Jonathan.
