I forgot: probably the disks are 800KB Mac disks. These can't be copied on Windows machines as far as I know, not even by OmniFlop. So some raw disk copy software on Mac OS 7.x should be used. Mmm... I have no idea what the best software would be. I'm not a Mac specialist. Note that just copying the files from the disks is not a good solution: the files will not run without the original disk. Anyone has a suggestion to make these raw copies ? ///E-Synthesist --- In emax@yahoogroups.com, "esynthesist" <esynthesist@...> wrote: > > 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 ! > > ///E-Synthesist > > > --- In emax@yahoogroups.com, "Gino" <umi4m@> wrote: > > > > I apologize if this has been covered before, but I just can't find a specific answer after searching the posts. Got this Emax Rack SE, HD with SD 1.2 disks. 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. > > > > Also came with the following preset disks if anyone looking for a copy of one of these: > > > > SoundDesigner E-mu Emax Version 1.12 Backup Disk > > SoundDesigner Sound Files > > SoundDesigner E-mu Emax Version 1.12 Master Disk > > Mariba/Vibes ZD710 > > ARCO STRINGS ZD836 > > COMBINED STRINGS ZD833 > > ARCO STRINGS ZD701 > > GRAND PIANO ZD700 > > ELECTIC PIANO ZD773 > > GRAND PIANO ZD735 > > CHIME VIBES and MALLET BELLS ZD755 > > DOUBLE GRAND ZD793A > > Dulcimer/Koto/chimes ZD771 > > Rock Guitar ZD709 > > Electric Bass ZD736 > > Olympic Bass and Drums ZD756 > > Rock Organ ZD703 > > MIDI STRINGS ZD790A > > KYODAI SYNTH COLLAGE ZD708 > > JASON 13 ZD738 > > COURTYARD ENSEMBLE ZD788A > > SE EXTRAVAGANZA ZD855 > > MIXED CHORUS ZD707 > > ROCK KIT ZD702 > > CONGA ZD740 > > SOLO WOODWINDS ZD851 > > SOLO BRASS ZD822 > > FRENCH HORN ZD705 > > >
