Re: Best Mac to run SD on?

2010-04-12 by esynthesist

Hi,

Having these SoundDesigner for Emax 1.12 disks (master, backup and sound files) is really UNIQUE !

So I think the group would really appreciate it if you can manage to make 100% (raw) copies of these disks and load the images to the files section.
I suggest to use OmniFlop on Windows XP/Vista to make the copies - the disks contain a kind of copyright protection scheme if I remember well, but OmniFlop will ignore these.

Currently the only way of sharing SD for Emax 1.12 is by means of a 60MB harddisk image - you can imagine that your floppy disk images will be a much more comfortable way for sharing the software :) !!

Many thanks in advance !

Wondered what the best older mac to do the job was? I can get Pluses, SEs, Classics, PowerPC, and G4s all day just wanted to pick the right one for the job. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. I would be running this via serial not MIDI.
