Re: [emax] Disable Emax1 HD...?

2012-01-26 by Nik Kinloch

If you use a HD version of the OS, but don't have a HD, you will get an 
error when trying to save anything, as it looks for the disk then times out.

The SCSI CF route is by far the best. Apart from the speed advantage, 
using a CF card with the EMXP software means you can transfer files to 
and from the sampler, build presets, back up etc.

Move to quarantaine

This moves the raw source file on disk only. The archive index is not changed automatically, so you still need to run a manual refresh afterward.
