Re: [korgpolyex] my Hawk-800, progress report

2008-12-28 by Neil Wakeling

Good point - what is the recommended method for loading stuff into the Poly? I haven't thought about this yet. This may be a bit bizarre, given in the old days on the Atari I was fully MIDI everything, but for ages now I record just the sounds using Cool Edit Pro; My master keyboard (Ensoniq VFX) controls MIDI as required, and also acts as a Sys-Ex librarian - saving sysex from any MIDI device and saving it to floppy. This system is of course well due for an update...

So, what (freeware?) Sysex librarian or other method for transferring the Flash etc do you guys recommend?

Cheers
Neil




right now i've got it at the point where it powers up and says "FLASH".
since my computers and my synths don't talk to each other, getting the OS
loaded will be a non-trivial task for me. in the meantime i'll be looking
at 1U rack enclosures. i'll hold off on the AtomaHawk until i have a
better idea of the enclosure situation.
