Hi James. All good here in Sydney but very busy working on the CMI-30A with Peter Vogel. We're exhibiting at the NAMM music show in LA january... More details soon... The hardware side of using Compact flash cards as Series III storage is easy, if inelegant. I found a flash card

Hi Stephen. You're in luck - you already have the wavesuper hardware upgrade. All you need is a new Fairlight formatted 4Gbyte hard disc with the 9.34 software, and a new set of ROMs... Having backed up all your files, I would then personally remove all the old SCSI drives.. They

I had a quick look at the HxC Floppy Drive Emulator ;forum. I asked if there is any progress with Fairlight writing, back in march of this year, but still got no answer. Still hoping someone will work on it.......... Regards, Peter Kersten. ---------------------------------------

What is stopping me is I actually have a series IIx, not a III. I already have put a SCSI-IDE-CF-card in my EIII-rack and love it very much. I'm sure it would work for a series III too, so I guess, my help call is just for a CMI IIx.. Thanks for the replies by the way . Regards,

I'm happy to pop the data from any working SCSI device, ST506 via ADAPTEC board, or 8" floppy onto the medium of your choice. No absolute guarantee but it's better insurance than an un-climate-controlled warehouse in Arizona. > Replacing the drives with 3.5" ones is an option, bu

Hi Guys Peter Wielk has upgraded my Series lll to this spec and I now have 4 x 4 Gig drives and no tape or 8" disc. (Peter put all the sounds off the disc's onto the drives) Much lighter and much more reliable. Well worth thinking about.. Thank you Peter.. Cheers Howard --- In Fa

My Series III is at 8.29r. What would be required to update it to 9.34, in order to take advantage of these larger SCSI devices? - Stephen --- In Fairlight-CMI@yahoogroups.com, "horiprod" wrote: > > Hi Peter > > There is a solution to the problem of future-proofing old series III

Hi Peter, I hope all is well in Sydney. Perhaps you could find the time to tell us how to run our 9.34 CMI series 3 systems from compact flash ? Many thanks. Cheers, James On 24 Nov 2010, at 13:49, horiprod wrote: > Hi Peter > > There is a solution to the problem of future-proofi
2010-11-24 by horiprod
Hi Peter There is a solution to the problem of future-proofing old series III files on old (revision 5) machines, however it requires a relatively extensive hardware upgrade. Once a system is upgraded to the "last" revision 9.34, very many SCSI devices of up to 4 Gbytes can be us

Isn't this actually the same problem people have with their series I, II and IIx? Archiving sounds and data............... Replacing the drives with 3.5" ones is an option, but we could do WAY better. Come on guys, it's 2010, almost 2011. The upgrade for the lightpen and monitor

Emulex was the controller / adapter board from SCSI to QUIC24. My tape drive was an Archive with a QIC24 interface. Be very careful about the tapes. It may be a tape issue and not a drive issue. Old data tapes can get the tape layer stuck together etc. I've spoken to a data recov

2010-11-17 by karmagician
Hi, I've decided to start using my Series III again after quite a long break, many years. It seems to be running fine, but as I was trying to get some files off of streaming tape, it apparently will eat the tape every now and then. I was just testing it with some non-essential ta

I think `clarity' expresses what's involved without saying one end of the scale is necessarily better than the other. It's simple and direct. I wondered about being clever and focusing on the Australian aspect by using an Aboriginal word, but that'd probably just ask for trouble
