Problems getting my EII banks from CD to Mac.

2008-01-22 by Kenneth Abildgaard

Hi guys.

 

I am pretty new to all this (not to computers and samplers, but to an
Emulator II+ running on a Macintosh Classic that is J) and I have a question
(read: problem).

 

I got a CD-ROM containing some EII banks and I have two Mac computers for
this purpose.

 

1.

An old Macintosh Classic that I intend to use to transfer and edit sounds to
and from my Emulator II+ - running MacOS 7.0.1. and Sound Designer for EII.
It works like a charm. I have transferred a bank from EII to Mac.

 

2.

An old PowerPC running 7.5.3 that I intend to use to copy banks from the
CD-ROM drive to floppies as the Classic do NOT have a CD-ROM drive.

 

Issue:

My problem is that I can't get the CD-ROM containing the EII banks to show
up when I put it in the CD-ROM drive.

A CD icon never shows up on my desktop, but inserting the CD-ROM into my PC
or my third Mac (iMac running OSX) shows all the banks.

 

If I insert my MacOS 7.5.3 system CD-ROM it shows up on the desktop on my
PPC, and will even boot from it - so it seems there's no problem with the
CD-ROM drive.

 

So basically I have HUGE problems getting my EII banks from CD-ROM to floppy
to Classic to Emulator II.

 

Any ideas would be WILDLY appreciated.
