max memory on E4xt Ultra EOS 4.7

Hi. I have an E4xt Ultra running EOS 4.7. It has 64 MB of memory via a single memory stick. Looks like adding extra memory is fairly inexpensive, and it appears that there are 6 memory slots. However, everything that I've read states that the max memory is 128MB, so that means that all I can do is add a second 64MB memory stick and I'm full, despite the extra slots. I'm kinda hoping that with EOS 4.7 they increased the max memory capability.... or perhaps just wishful thinking...

Thanks in advance.

Danny

Nope, 128mb is the max. The other slots are designed for flashroms, like the e-synth card and so on.

Thanks... I had a feeling that was the case. Well, I just spent a whopping $20 to upgrade from 64MB to 128MB. Whoohoo!

Looks like those ROM banks are hard to find - I see one on ebay for around $248.

Thanks again

a question regarding the roms

a question regarding rom...is it so that we can get the diffrent roms with presets as a loadable bank into ram.. since the roms are hard to get?

what i am asking about is.. is there anything magic around how to rom work.. or is it just samples on a permanent storage with presets mapping them up??

The roms are basically just samples, and in addition you get a floppy with premade presets, refering to the rom-samples. So, in theory you could just load the samples from the rom, and save them to your harddrive, and have the rom there. The problem then would be that you have to re-route all the presets, since they are refering to the rom-samples (x000), and not the harddrive-samples (s000). So if anyone could figure out a smart method of changing that x to and s without having to do it manually, we could all have an e-synth-rom on our harddrives.
