Title: Need some sounds Post by: emuulator on October 28, 2009, 04:13:20 AM Hi all,
I purchased my EII about 1 month ago and even it cost me a bomb, i love it to bits. Its a EMU-EmulatorII+HD, the harddrive is dead and has been replaced by a 3.5" drive. The old 5 1/4" is not working and seems to scratch the disks i insert :(. I have been having much fun with just sampling sounds but i would really like to get some libary sounds; I was just wondering what would be the best to do; 1) see if i can repair the 5 1/4" drive or get a new one? 2) Get a mac classic + Sound Designer I am slightly confused though what sounddesigner actually gives me, does it come with libary sounds or will i have to get the CD's with the sounds on? If i recall the mac classic does not support CD or USB so how will i get the CD's libary onto the emu? If you could help it would be much appreciated.

- a vintage macintosh computer (my recommendation: mac SE with system 6.x) - a software tool on the mac which can format & administrate SCSI devices - sound designer for EII on the mac - a scsi mass storage device (best: zip 100 drive) for the mac - a special serial cable: mac <-> EII (you can buy them from emulatorarchive's rob, or build one yourself) - a windows (preferrably XP) computer with cd rom drive & something "macdrive" or "macdisk" (or similar) installed - a zip 100 usb drive connected to the PC - several zip 100 disks (which you format with your vintage mac) - the EII libraries in sound designer format (on CD) Then you're ready to go. |
