    To Elaine Matthews . I am totally with you on this , i have an s3000 and am having the same frustrations ! My ZIP drive went down and reliant on floppys .

    You're a flippin' legend, mate! My zip drive died a week or two back, luckily I had everything that was on the discs backed up. But now had no way of sticking sounds into my 3000XL, my floppys are long gone. Saw your video the other night and an HXC is on its way from you to me as I type this. Can't thank you enough, my Mrs and her PayPal account deserves a shout out as well!😉

    Hi my name is Elaine (2 x s3000xl s). Ive watched all videos to do with installing the emulator now but so far nobody has explained how to get my precious samples from the floppys back inside the sampler so that i can save them via the usb stick . Can you help me ,this seems to be the final solution but i can't get my head round how it will all works . Desperate ,E Thank you enormously for all your vids !

      You would have to do this via SCSI using a program called mesa or recycle, I believe I did cover this in a previous video. Good luck!

    Cheers for the video man, your vid got me the furthest in the installation part, ie Old Drive is OUT and new one is IN (LED is turning on showing that it's connected propperly) Only thing is, there was no metal mounter in my AKAI S900 Unit which I just got recently, like I see in y our video. Old disk drive looks differnt to the one in this video also. SO When the new drive is in, theres nothing to secure it in place. Hmm. Cheers for video though it was helpful.

    Hi, very good work, I'm trying to see if we can put a gotek or hxc externally on a CD 3000 XL, is it possible in your opinion? thank you.

    • @TheBizzyBScience
      @TheBizzyBScience  3 роки тому +2

      I guess so, but it would be a case of getting the jumpers correct, but some of the samplers don't work well with flash floppy so you might need to install the original hxc firmware instead

    • @JeffHxC2001
      @JeffHxC2001 5 років тому

      You should at least get the true and original HxC firmware for Gotek. Beware of these firmwares claiming to be "hxc compatible"... You can get the HxC firmware on this page : hxc2001.com/store . If you want to install it from the usb stick, this is possible, just send me an email to hxc2001 at hxc2001.com

    Hi B!
    Just bought one of these including the floppy usb emulator but I can save anything. I sample from vinyl and save the samples for edit chop etc but just can’t. Tried formatting in the sampler but said “DISK UNUSABLE - BAD DIRECTORY AREA” Hope you can help me shit this. I’m new on this so will help me a lot.

      the funny thing was, there was a buzzing coming from the floppy drive, and my mobile phone was sitting right next to it.
      when i moved my phone away, the buzzing stopped, and it started loading the disk no problem.
      surely it couldn't have been mobile phone inteference stopping it from working??
      well, it had been fine since then.
