How funny, I've just stuck a refurbished Shugart 400L in my Emulator1.. so I went through the whole jumpers thing.. (I stuck the jumpers off my old drive into the old one.)
   
  This drive cost me $10 and worked perfectly!
   
  Looking at the drive front on, from the disk entry side..
   
  The IC mount with the jumpers is wired as follows
   
  Connector SIDE
   
  ------- this on is also (via a soldered wire)....
  -------

  ------- ....connected to this one!

  DISK ENTRY SIDE
   
   
  Hope this Helps!

          Elm,

I had a similar type of encounter back in the early
90s, I bought this E1 from a group called Voice Farm,
it came with all their samples:). It stopped working
one day so I drove it up to EMu systems to no far from
where I live. They put me in contact with Ed R. one of
the original designers and they fixed it no charge! 
Long story short, I sold that E1 a few years later,
always regretted it. 

I just now got a 4 voice, with the disk drive
removed. I found a replacement drive but lack two
things:

1. The drive mounting bracket. I will have to make my
own and was hoping someone with a E1 could just send
me a pic of how its mounted that would help me.

2. The replacement drive has some jumpers on it and I
was hoping someone with a working E1 could let me know
what jumper settings they have on their drive.

If I get mine working I could send you a few disks if
you still want them?

Thanks
