Title: EMAX SE AND CF card readers -- IT WORKS!!!
Post by: roginator on October 13, 2014, 12:29:29 AM
Hi guys

I bought a CF card readers for my samplers …
RAISIN MONSTER ones :

they work PERFECT …


emax is super fast and super silent :)
I highly recommend this ones with SANDISK 32MB disks .. so you can have 40 disks on 1 CF!

:)

Hello,

This is great news! I took the risk also and bought the same reader a while ago not knowing how it would work on my SE HD. It is still waiting for installation and some parts.

Thanks for the info!

I found problem on CF rising monster and EMAX

I have installed raisin monster cards in Akai s1100 and E4 .. they work perfect

BUT I also installed it in EMAX I /// I have one with scsi .. last rev PCB
zip drive works perfect BUT /// rising monster have a problem….

i formated disk ( sandisk 32MB)
I managed to load system into CF and few sound disks…
and when i power up Emax it load system

BUT

when i want to load sound … it give me error like HARD DISK ERROR
also when i wanna copy system for CF to disk … I get same error ..

so it works flawless for loading system into emax and saving sounds from ram on CF .. but loading sounds from CF is problem///

also it won't format any CF bigger than 128Mb

any idea
