Patches and discussion for Ensoniq VFX family

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).

Fred

Hi Fred,
I'm sorry about your synth but as you say, if you want you can send me the
files with the sounds to upload to my site "Neopatches", so any user may
sample them for you.
If seem OK, just send me the files and I'll upload to the site.
Regards,
Fabio
