Emax

Folks-

Thanks for your support.

I know it can be a concern trusting someone off a forum.
Sending cash and all, and I am glad that (so far as I know) I haven't  
let anyone down.

Best Regards,
Ted

do you install your CF reader in the Emax II rack? if so, does it fit  
fine
in the chassis slot without having to make it wider? i ended up  
getting a
Zip100 drive which i haven't put in yet for various reasons, one of  
which
being that it's just a little bit wider than the 3.5" cutout slot of  
my Emax
rack.

i did get the slim floppy put in and working (thanks to Ted of course)  
only
to find out my Emax is not playing the full 8 voices which only means  
more
problems... so i'm at a stand still until i find out *somehow* if it's a
replaceable part or the E-chip. i almost feel like i should just pony up
the money for another Emax and use the one i have now for spares...

Anyways, here's a pic of my Emax with the slim drive installed in  
(sorry for
the bad quality, my camera's battery died before i had a chance to take
better pics). no mods (like you) were done to mount the drive - i simply
took some silicone (glue for aquariums) and glued it to the top of the
chassis. ha... works fine being that the slim floppy is lightweight -
although i wouldn't trust it going out to a gig or out of my bedroom
studio... ;)

Cheers,

Brooks

PS - just want everyone to know that Ted is THE MAN - he has been  
selflessly
giving, making up these SCSI kits, slim floppy converter, etc., and
answering multiple questions i have asked him... THANKS TED!!!!!
