2018-09-28 by Denis Wohlmann

hello people,
thx for having me here....
i really look forward to buy a s1100 os2 32 mb , after selling another s3200 , i got 2 s3200...and i have 3 sellers for s1100 at the moment , fingers crossed..
somebody on gearslutz meant he have a s1100 os 2 but only manual from the web ..the s1100 os 1 pdf....i found a better one one on martin78.com but its also for old OS...what i want to say : for him it seem really a problem and after seeing the software update manual os 2 on pic on old ebay bid i think maybe not so smart to buy s1100os2 without manual...
can i ask question bout s3200 memory boards and flashrom i could show pics too ...?
peace

Hello Denis,

I'm also new here ;)
S1100 & S3200 owner

Did you have your S1100 now ?
Last os for it is 4.3, and i think you can manage those sampler without the manual (as you know the S3200 already).

What do you want to know about S3200 memory boards ?

Cheers,
Olivier.

i'll sell you mine privately, with flash drive installed. backlight a little wonky due to what looks like bad capacitor, but you can manage. backlight is brand new.

i wasted a lot of time on that usb emu to get the right hfe files for s3200...but it was good to buy usb emu so i can sell 1 of 2 s3200..
bout s1100 memory i kno now we dont have any other boards than the og 2m and 8 mb board s from akai..not like s3200 with the german mutec and others..i kno now i have all differen 8 mb boards and 1 flash rom in my second s3200..i bought it cause this and second filter and manual in german..but with broken floppy..
the mutec scsi board has a savitey like this here pretty cool..

Hello Denis,

Take a break before the burnout ;)

Well, i'm not using floppy emulator or omniflop, sorry. I have the scsi chain and i will go for a scsi2sd, maybe on one sampler, connected to the other.

I found 2 x 8mb boards for the S1100, from Mutec ! So they made some also, and they're working perfectly.

Sampling old gear is a good idea too, specialy when you work on analog mono synth, and want to "keep" the sound you've created, before you loose it the next day.

But do you have the old 3200, or the 3200xl ? As you're talking about flash memory... I didn't compare 3200 vs 3200xl, but 3200 vs 3000xl (wich as different DAC).

I personaly prefer the oldest ones, something's different : dynamic (kind of compression on the xl), stéréo image, and if i use it as a synth, merging for example 4 simple waveforms and different modulations, there is something more "analog" with the oldest : i can ear some kinds of random frequencies behind, moving from note to note. On the xl this is "freeze". I mean, the sound is really really close, but the small differences make this important for my use. I've earded the same on Roland D50 vs D05 with same sysex : sound's very close, but harmonics are freeze one the newest.
But maybe you can use an lfo connected to the filters to simply simulate this...

Cheers,
Olivier.

Hello olivier,
yeah man i did little break ha ha...was mostly on the forums to close my endless knowledge gaps lately..now when its get cold im more into music ...in spring and summer i hobby grow tomatos and stuff on perma culture no till living soil...but i thinking� on automation so i have more time next year maybe..

sry for late reply....i using this email acount on extra puter with linux bootable dvd... i dont turn this pc on so often sry..hope you dont mind..

thats great news bout mutec and s1100...
Yea i have� learned usb emu is not the way to go its scsi2sd...pretty dumb to have tiny 1,44 mb parts when you can have sd hdd...
i want to buy sd card scsi device for chain when its still on next month...
do you kno if mesa will work on s3200 with OS 3.7 or below..i will keep the s3200 with os 2.0 but i want to kno for selling the other...
do u use mesa or other ?
great input btw oilivier thx a lot
i have the s3200...another thing i learned more and more is go for the old...
first i bought little� to expensive for 350
second
�i did buy first hand s3200 for 180 with broken floppy but with fully loaded memory which includes 8mb flashrom...aaand the second filter...which has cost 800 or 1200 dm i blieve back in day ...the s3200 had cost 9500 DM 4750 EU as it came out..that still flashing me..cause i wanted them since i was 16 but i came into music making much later in the box...reason4 no early fl \u1e83as my first DAW
cheers
Denis

I made a mistake about my ram board, they weren't build by Mutec, but by Stevenage Circuits, in England. No problems with them.

Cheers.

hell im glad im bought the old ones..i kno the moving random freqs n the meantime...i love to go on very low notes or pitch it ridiclioulsy down with s3200...do u use s1100 for bassline .........?
