That magic number can only be generated on 1 computer at E-mu.
From how I understand what I was told it was hard written to an e-
prom or something like that inside a really old computer and they
never bothered/can't recompile it to run on a different system
because the person who wrote it is no longer with them.
Bear in mind I'm not that technically knowledgable so I don't
understand fully what I was told, but that is it in a nutshell.
I beleive I was also told that memory can't be simply pulled out of
one unit and plugged into the other, you need the actual install disk
as it reprograms some chips, the magic code only works after the
disc has been ran and failed.
Does that sound right?
