HI does anyone know if you can backup sounds from the Ultra to a sound drive formatted fat32 4.7 and then use those sounds in a non ultra like E6400 or E64? It seems like it should work because the EIII disks were also compatible with Ultras.. anybody have an answer?
thanks

If the non-ultra is also using OS 4.7 then it should work. If not then they won't be able to read the Fat32 drive.

I'm doing a similar thing but writing them to an EMU formatted zip disc.

Seeing as non-ultras can only run EOS versions up to and including 4.62, the answer is that it won't work.

It works !, no Problem

If you back up an EIII CD to a FAT32 hard disk, and then put that hard disk in another EOS sampler, it will only be able to read the sounds if it can read FAT32 formatted disks, which means it must be running EOS 4.7, and thus can only be an Ultra as non-Ultras cannot run 4.7.

Obviously a non-Ultra can load sounds from an EIII CD directly, but that is not what the OP was asking.

That?s why . The EIII CD Disk are only for EOS Sythems not for Fat.
So, You know it, i know, but he don?t know it


But you can load the EIII Sounds (from the Fat Disk ) in the Ram , than store it to another disk ( EOS Fomated ) and you have the Sounds ( back ) to old fashioned non Ultra Maschines.

I think that is what he want to know.

He didn?t ask to plug the Fat Disk via SCSI at a e6400 / e64 .

Now I'm confused as to what he was asking, but if the banks are backed up or copied from a fat drive to an emu drive, yes it should work - seems to for me - though there are limitations around the maximum number of folders/banks that eos drives will store I seem to remember.
