Need some sounds

[emuulator]

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 Its a EMU-EmulatorII+HD, the harddrive is dead and has been replaced by a 3.5" drive.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.

Regards
Nick in England

You need:

- 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.
