Re: [emax] Using Programmed PIC micro Controller

we would need to ask emu for the assembly langauge and opcodes but if they are like ensoniq then they will say no

  ...I think the problem is, ted looked very hard and couldn't find the 
  datasheet (and therefore the opcodes) for the microprocessor the emax 
  uses.. and without anyone knowing what the opcodes are, no disassembly 
  or hacking is possible.....

  so to modify the emax to boot off a different kind of device, or handle 
  more banks per disk, you'd have to replace the main microprocessor, and 
  rewrite everything from scratch.

  that's do-able, but wouldn't exactly be fun...
