Hello olivier,
yeah man i did little break ha ha...was mostly on the forums to close my endless knowledge gaps lately..now when its get cold im more into music ...in spring and summer i hobby grow tomatos and stuff on perma culture no till living soil...but i thinking� on automation so i have more time next year maybe..

sry for late reply....i using this email acount on extra puter with linux bootable dvd... i dont turn this pc on so often sry..hope you dont mind..

thats great news bout mutec and s1100...
Yea i have� learned usb emu is not the way to go its scsi2sd...pretty dumb to have tiny 1,44 mb parts when you can have sd hdd...
i want to buy sd card scsi device for chain when its still on next month...
do you kno if mesa will work on s3200 with OS 3.7 or below..i will keep the s3200 with os 2.0 but i want to kno for selling the other...
do u use mesa or other ?
great input btw oilivier thx a lot
i have the s3200...another thing i learned more and more is go for the old...
first i bought little� to expensive for 350
second
�i did buy first hand s3200 for 180 with broken floppy but with fully loaded memory which includes 8mb flashrom...aaand the second filter...which has cost 800 or 1200 dm i blieve back in day ...the s3200 had cost 9500 DM 4750 EU as it came out..that still flashing me..cause i wanted them since i was 16 but i came into music making much later in the box...reason4 no early fl \u1e83as my first DAW

Hello Denis,
Take a break before the burnout ;)
Well, i'm not using floppy emulator or omniflop, sorry. I have the scsi chain and i will go for a scsi2sd, maybe on one sampler, connected to the other.
I found 2 x 8mb boards for the S1100, from Mutec ! So they made some also, and they're working perfectly.
Sampling old gear is a good idea too, specialy when you work on analog mono synth, and want to "keep" the sound you've created, before you loose it the next day.
But do you have the old 3200, or the 3200xl ? As you're talking about flash memory... I didn't compare 3200 vs 3200xl, but 3200 vs 3000xl (wich as different DAC).
I personaly prefer the oldest ones, something's different : dynamic (kind of compression on the xl), st�r�o image, and if i use it as a synth, merging for example 4 simple waveforms and different modulations, there is something more "analog" with the oldest : i can ear some kinds of random frequencies behind, moving from note to note. On the xl this is "freeze". I mean, the sound is really really close, but the small differences make this important for my use. I've earded the same on Roland D50 vs D05 with same sysex : sound's very close, but harmonics are freeze one the newest.
But maybe you can use an lfo connected to the filters to simply simulate this...
Cheers,
Olivier.
