Emax

As I have explained in my e-mail, this software can only run if you copy the full HFS image to either a Mac hard disk or to a ZIP disk.

Copying the HFS image to a CDROM does not work, since Sound Designer must be installed on a writeable disk.
Copying the software .BIN from the HFS image to a HD or floppy does not work neither, because of the copy protection mechanism.

You can only use it if you copy the full HFS image to a hard disk with read/write capabilities and with a capacity of minimum 100MB. A ZIP 100MB disk is the most obvious solution.
To copy the HFS image to a ZIP disk, you can use the small .exe file which can be found in the SDEmax package
