Re: [korgpolyex] Decoding 800 Mk1 Cassette Data

Yes, the question on everyone's mind is "WHY?"

Though I must say, your work from the tape audio end of things is going to make it much easier for me to disassemble the tape assembler code that is one of only two sections of the original Korg Poly-800 code that I have not pulled apart.


I will certainly be saving the information that you have presented here. And bravo for having done what you did!

Mike

So you're actually trying to decode the patch dumps and make sense of 
them on the PC, rather than just using audacity to record them as audio?
