Technical difficulties

2004-03-10 by Mike-E

One slot left in my E-mu and I was thinking about the Sample Ram / 
Rom to use my won samples... BUT...

Creating a 32Mb set in a E-mu sampler (I should buy one first) is 
one, but opening the XL everytime to fit in a new set is what I don't 
like.

Isn't it possible to create connector with some kind of flat cable 
and an external SmartMedia drive (or somthing like that), which 
connects to the Command Station via a memory slot? 

Things to talk about:

- O.S. update? Or seperate O.S. on the external drive?
- Sample store format?
- What kind of media is fast enough and portable?
- Who could develop it, how many pieces, price?

I think it should be a very nice add-on and if it's technically 
possible, maybe as a group we can make it happen. Imagine, 256Mb of 
sample memory added to your powerfull Command Station! Wouldn't that 
be nice?
