Title: Information about storing Emulator II data on floppy disks
Post by: AlexBel on March 15, 2022, 08:41:34 AM
Hello.
I'm looking for information about storing Emulator II data on floppy disks. Samples, presets and other data - where they are located on the disk and in what form they are stored. If anyone has such information, please help. I don't have a real Emulator II and I can't buy it. But I want to make a sampler that can work with Emulator II disk images and function as close to the real machine as possible. Of course, you can find everything in disk images, but it will take a lot of time.
Sincerely, Alex.

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.
