Title: Emax II Universal Sound Test Disk Post by: midipuppies on February 05, 2011, 04:49:00 PM I just came across a floppy labeled "UNIVERSAL SOUND TEST" "Service Department 1990" "SOFTWARE VERS. 2.0"
It is a factory floppy with the green EMAX II logo on it. Anyone seen one before? I am assuming it is similar to the EIII one. Title: Re: Emax II Universal Sound Test Disk Post by: esynthesist on February 06, 2011, 03:16:23 AM Great.
Would it be possible to take a full raw disk copy of it (on a PC with OmniFlop software), before it gets damaged ? As far as I remember this UST disk image is currently only downloadable on the internet for Emax-1, but not for Emax-II. I think some people are actually still looking for the Emax-II version on some other forums (or this forum) You seem to have it ;) I hope you can make a copy and upload it to e.g. the Emax Yahoo group. Title: Re: Emax II Universal Sound Test Disk Post by: midipuppies on February 07, 2011, 10:21:10 AM In Omniflop, I am not seeing an Emax II format. Can I just go with the regular Emax 1 format?
I did it anyway and it seems to have written a new disk and saved the image. Standard image type right? (.img) Jay Title: Re: Emax II Universal Sound Test Disk Post by: esynthesist on February 07, 2011, 12:53:33 PM Yes, Emax-I format is fine. It should result in an image with size 819200 bytes.
The one you created should be fine. I hope you can upload it somewhere, e.g. Yahoo Emax group... (you can also send it to me and I can upload it...) Thx ! Title: Re: Emax II Universal Sound Test Disk Post by: midipuppies on February 07, 2011, 03:15:40 PM Confirmed. It did work.
If you boot the Emax with this floppy, you get a rather discomforting flashing message stating "WARNING: Recalibration Required" or something to that effect. If you boot from HD and just load the bank from floppy, you do not see that. Just all the test presets. Neat-o. :) Title: Re: Emax II Universal Sound Test Disk Post by: ditabeardmemo on February 09, 2011, 07:15:34 AM I also would love to have a copy of this disk. Midipuppies, will you be able to post it somewhere?
Great find! Title: Re: Emax II Universal Sound Test Disk Post by: midipuppies on February 10, 2011, 12:55:22 PM I will post it on the Emax Yahoo User group right now.
Njoi! ;D http://groups.yahoo.com/group/emax/files/Emax%20II%20UST1.img Title: Re: Emax II Universal Sound Test Disk Post by: esynthesist on February 10, 2011, 01:58:54 PM Allright - I just saw it on the Yahoo group.
Thanks a lot ! |
