Re: [xl7] Custom Roms... - Any updates?

2010-09-09 by James Ulibarri

So it's Emu part number 6876 for the 16 MB and 6877 for the 32 MB flash roms. And then there are a handful of Emu samplers that will write to the sticks. I am not 100% on board that it absolutely has to be Emu's part number in order to work. Of course that's what the manual would say though. But I am tempted to think that any flash rom with the the right specs could possibly work. Now what would those specs be? I don't know yet and I don't have an Emu Ultra-whatever and a 6876/6877 flash ROM to try it yet. The information out there seems elusive on who actually has pulled this off and actually installed the custom flash rom in their Command Station and got it to work. It doesn't seem you can get a definitive answer from anyone yet. Just lots of fragmented stuff on forums, etc. Or did I miss something? Now my other question is do you absolutely need an Ultra sampler to write to a flash rom with programs like Awave that will write in one of the Emu formats that the Command Station will read?

Sorry if all this has already been established. I am sure it has, but someone ramp me up quickly.

want. I heard from the grapevine you need a emu ultra sampler and blanks sticks which they don't make anymore. Anyone have more info?

I thought this was a retarded idea at first but now I am pretty stoked on the idea. Where are we at on this? How can I help? What's the next step? Has anyone pulled it off yet? What can I do to get this off the ground? If I have control of the kinds of tones that go on my own sticks... than I want this. I want to get the PX-7 synth engine another chance with my OWN tones. Updates? thoughts, etc?
