its very old code you would first need to
disasemble the original as there are no available
hard copies this takes a very long time plus there
might be some logic requied to make the signals as its a much later protocol in
1990,s about 4-5 years later than the emax
those cf drives from japan will work but they dont
have a case you will need to make one they are not hot swap
and they are a clone of the acard 7720u and use the
mac firmware with a direct cf card interface instead of the ide
port
the cf card interface is identacal to the ide in
fact just in a smaller format
yes it would be nice to have them cheap but for a 4
layer pcb design and manufacture and all the custom chips required and the acard
chip is already end of life so when they are gone they are gone
its a very expensive product to get made in small
quantities
remember the pcd drives and others original price
tags was £200-500 new
they only became cheap when they became redundent
tech because of usb
and they were made for the photo shop processing
machines which now use the cheaper usb devices
now if you had the code and can do a rewrite then
usb would be able to be done and would be cheaper like on the korg dss1 im an
installer for tom and we have talked about a few machines and doing usb
conversions
ensoniq was one but i could not get the code
released even though the company has been dead since the late 90,s
same with roland i tried to get a non disclosure
agrement in to creating new pcm cards for the jd800/990/jv1080 and was told no
by there lawyer team
rob of the emulator archive tried to get all the
code for the emax and he got everything they had but the code was lost

cant somebody that actually knows how to write firmware code open source this conversion easy? I mean is there intellectual property involved. IDE SCSI lund 0 1, is Arduino capable enough to do the math. Maybe not enough IO. Has anybody tried the SCSI CF drives from Japan, i just wish they were 75bucks not 150.

I never had dealings with the guy, but I think he disappeared when a virtual mob of pitchfork wielding village folk went looking for him.There was quite some anger on the boards a couple years ago... if I recall correctly. Not just here, but synthzone and a couple other boards too...-Ted

Secondly, what happened to this guy at SCSI for Samplers? He's all but disappeared
