[sdiy] loading Drum Machine sample data..Yamaha RX-5

[dan snazelle]

Years ago I owned an RX-5....I lost it. I missed it. I got another one yesterday!

However, I dont have any of the waveform cartridges.

I was wondering if these cartridges are just large eproms? Would it be possible to find a way to hook up wires to the connector and get sounds in somehow?

I have always wondered how this technology works. I know that some other drum machines, people swap out the eproms and load in new sounds. I just have never heard of this for the Yamaha.

However..someone did at one time make an 808 sounds cartridge for this machine and it was not Yamaha so it must be possible.

ANY Info appreciated


thanks
