Re: [emax] Re: Sound Designer for EMAX has anyone got a disk image?

That's a great idea. With the age of the machines, we should strive to keep all the software and samples alive for all to use. When I bought my EMax SE, it came with a box of disks and some nice sounds. I'm sure I can do more with the SE, and would like to do so. 🎃👻

This was required due to a copy protection mechanism which makes it impossible to copy this SD for Emax .bin file from that HFS image to a simple floppy disk or another hard disk.
