Looking for freeware program to create a file image of a VFX floppy

2002-02-19 by roidelaplage

Hi,

We all know Giebler EDE software and the process of loading from 
floppy, then saving as SysEx on the PC.
Now the situation is: my VFX is dead but floppies are still 
containing PRECIOUS sounds ! I want to share those sounds with the 
community and get someone to sample them for me.

Question: Is there a freeware that can make a file image of the VFX 
floppies ? MaxiDisk for i.e. ?

It's too bad though because the floppy disk structure is well 
described (even with source code !!) and I believe it would take a 
programmer half a day to create a DiskImage program for the VFX (as 
it exists for the Korg 01w for i.e).

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.
