Akai S900 system disks

Post by Frayo » Tue Dec 02, 2008 3:15 am

Does anyone have any of these? Due to not having a machine old enough to handle such software other than the sampler, I need the actual floppy disks (working copies just fine). Anyway, I would be glad to pay for shipping and some cash for your trouble (within reason). I don't have a floppy drive on the only machine that I have access to internet on (the bastard was $2500 new purchased last week...and the damn thing didn't come with a floppy drive...but can accept like every media card known to man).

Any help appreciated. Even if someone has the disk image files and are willing to post them. I seriously would pay for someone else to download them and make a floppy.

Thanks again and kind regards :)

I'm not sure I follow this - the S900 has a ROM based operating system, as does the S950 and S1000 - you don't need any system disks... they just boot up - unlike the Roland S-330, the EMAX and Emulator range that need to boot off disk.
