Re: Does anyone have an Ensoniq Eps 16 plus.
The thing is "empty" on power up. Not a sausage. However, I have a Flashbank fitted in mine into which I have the (revised) Steinway/Bosen a. piano. So power up, boot, change storage device to Flash, Load Piano, which as the Instrument is in Flash memory there's zero load time

Re: SY-77 + Gotek USB Disk Errors
I am surprised at this. I have now fitted 2 Gotek to Ensoniq EPS16+ sampler and think they are wonderful. As far as the 16+ is concerned it thinks there is a real floppy drive still in. I can now do all my file manipulations on a PC. I would think the Yam is no different. My Goteks came with OS v3.3...

Re: What synths did New Order use for Ecstacy, Ultraviolence and 586?
I played in a Joy Div/New Order Trib a few years ago. We didn't do these tracks. Ecstacy, that "bass synth" sounds like a Korg 770 although it's an easy sound to program. They had an Emulator too (so anything is possible) and a DX7, I can hear a small sound near the end of the song that could well b...

Re: Akai S01 floppy drive error code __F
My floppies get slight traces of mold on the magnetic surface and causes all kinds of problems, from squeaky disc spin to failure to read. I have one of the old disk cleaners, a felt pad in a floppy case and a bottle of fluid. Usually after a clean (of the drive), I also check the floppy disc for mo...

Re: SoundDiver - short freeze-up after any slider change
Whilst making a brew (of tea) I remember! I've had it where, the synth was connected MIDI in and out and I wasn't aware or expecting there was a Thru active in the chain. So when moving a slider SD was sending a midi string for every increment, only to receive a message instantly in return which it ...

Re: SoundDiver - short freeze-up after any slider change
I use SD a lot, it's a pain. I've used it on Win98se to XP as that's my last OS by choice, and it's far from perfect. I've also used it on Mac OS7,9 and Tiger. It's different (errors) on each OS. It's fundamentally not designed to work on anything XP and beyond! Back in the day it's creator gave me ...

Re: Help! My equipment keeps shocking me!
Firstly, need to know in what country you are. I'm very familiar with UK mains and would not comment on any non-UK mains. For example USA has a very different system.

Re: Kawai K4 plays only one sound/patch
I have a K4, you are doing the right button presses, Single, Bank (A-D) then a number 1-16, if the same patch I have an idea. Reload all the voices over sysex. I recall the one I got had a similar problem, I measured the battery voltage (3.0V) and it was indeed 3.0V. So I found the factory default s...

Re: Hardware Synthesizer Sales Figures/ Worst Selling Synths
It goes to show even the big Japanese companies don't always get it right. I'd be interested to know what happens to these boxes, do they stockplile in warehouses until they get pushed into landfill? No doubt it will be a decision for the Accountants. The way hobby electroincs has moved on, there's ...
