Emax

Disk Dup Plus will work to copy the raw disks on old Mac OS.
It was able to backup my Alchemy Master disk with the authorization  
locks on it (just like ProTools used to have on their floppies).

I found it on the web, but if someone needs it and can't find it off  
the web, email me off list.

Regards,
Ted

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 ?

the disks contain a kind of copyright protection scheme if I remember  
well, but OmniFlop will ignore these.

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.
