Hi Alexander,

Unfortunately I have no further info about it, other than that I know
it was available and that it was a German company. I didn't buy it at
that time, cause I thought I could get it later.
I just wrote a mail to my friend and asked if he happens to have more
info on the subject. (I had a musicgear shop in the past, specialized
in vintage and analogue gear). This friend was a German partner of
mine. When I get more info, I'll let you know......

With any luck there will be a solution for all CMI's by the end of
this year. I can't go into details yet, but it is looking good I
think..... If this upgrade comes, there is no need for this 3,5"
floppy replacement...


Cheers,

Peter Kersten.
