Phew!  Great news.  Did you end up finding a replacement for your PB180?  I seem to remember your active matrix was dying.

I have all the samples from David Bascombe library (he sold it with his EII on ebay), some of them were used for TFF and some for the DM "Music for the masses"...

Hi

I don't know about the layout of the EII discs unfortunately.

But instead of buying an expensive EII you could maybe consider the much less expensive Oberheim DPX-1. The DPX-1 loads EII discs amongst other formats. Ebay usually have several DPX-1's on sale.

Just my two cents.

Best regards Brian

Hi,

1 try to connect EIII directly to midi keyb and figure if its EIII problem and not DAW.
2 check the cable and clean the contacts on the cable from CPU board to the output board.
3 the problem with MIDI can be caused by the faulty IC32 on cpu board - but its almost impossible to find replacement, I have a faulty one as well...

Can anyone recommend a technician in the U.S. who specializes in Emulator repairs?  My EIII has a couple of control panel issues that are beyond my ability to repair.

Hi there E-mu family,
I have an EIII bought in L.A. in 1989, Model 6081, Serial #0890671, and I recently had the original Internal 40 Mb Quantum HD replaced by an SCSI2SD 3.5" card, including a 50-pin SCSI to SD Card Adapter.
A 4 Go SD card was formatted with EMXP v311 and EIII OS 2.42 copied with HDD Raw Copy and it is now the Internal Drive the EIII boots from. It boots and works flawlessly, with the factory 4 Mb ram installed.

We then purchased the 8Mb memory upgrade kit 6084, featuring 8 x 1 Megabyte SIMM?s (1C356) + 2 IC, RAS PAL (IP376) and Address PAL (IP377), and installed it thoroughly according to the E-mu Systems Inc. memory expansion instructions manual, but unfortunately, the unit won?t boot anymore?
It starts loading from the SD card (SCSI #1) (or even the Floppy drive), but get stuck in the process and never completes the task. As soon as we re-install the old 4 Mb kit however, the unit boots and works without any problems.
 
Any suggestions ? Would anybody be aware of some incompatibility issues with Ram upgrade on certain EIII models ?
Could the problem be defectuous PAL376 and 377 circuits ? I was told that bad ram modules won?t prevent the EIII to boot.
Any idea of some tests to perform ?

Many thanks for your suggestions and advices.
