Re: Using the EMAX-1 Arpeggiator to control other Synths...

2006-05-28 by peter_vh01

Actually, I decided to go ahead, and I installed DOS 6.22 onto an old
box I had kicking around.

Ran the software, created the disk, but when I run the disk I first
get the message 'BAD BANKS' and then 'WRONG SOFTWARE'. Anyone else
ever experience this? I took the SE software off of the Files section
on this group.
