Re: SD with P2000/2

Thank's Glenn for your answer,

I think I will try to get hands on one of  the older Mac computers to
run it through. I like the matrix panel but I have hard time to get
along with the three character display! So a computer editing would be
nice.

regards,

Marko

a additive synthesis?pluck algorithm, midi file transfer, it was cool
(though the pc was the bottleneck) at the time. and the files could be
interchanged with digidesigns eprom burner called "burner" (which
actually had an external eprom burner on a serial cable from the mac and
was really useful for putting stuff on chips, even though on a lot of
machines (like the drumtrax kick sound for instance (or was it the
standard OB DX drum machine kick - unmodded - or both?)which only played
the first 4K of the sound and muffled it to high heaven so it didn't
matter what sound you put in ). The thing is you'd have to be running,
or maybe???(if not complications) emulating the old operating systems
and as i recall a small subset of interfaces? think i ran it through
(and also rep'd and sold) old opcode midi interfaces. This was on the
