RE: Multitimral FZ1
To Mr.Mike,
I tried sending you an email at your
address, Notelt@Juno.com, but got a failure notice. Therefore I am posting
the letter on this forum.
Thanks much for the info. Your geocities
site is excellent. I would greatly
appreciate if you or any else could
answer some additional questions:
1) Does the McClintoch PC-FZ Dump Cable
Box use the FZ's DB25 parallel port or MIDI port?
2) Is this cable a faster method than the "Goranssions FZ-File transfer
utility via MIDI you described?
3) Where can I purchase the McClintoch
cable or obtain DIY plans to build
one?
4) Would it be possible (or be worth the
time & effort) to connect a Parallel
Zip drive or parallel CD-ROM drive
(if such an animal exists) to the
FZ's parallel port, and write some
Optional software for the FZ that
would at least allow 1-way sample
"dumps" from the Zip or CD to the FZ?
The Zip or CD drive would be controlled by the FZ front panel via
the Optional software. This would be
excellent for live performance; and
the Zip or CD-R files would be edited
and organized on a PC left at home.
Also, how much faster would the ZIP
or CD drive transfer be compared to
the FZ internal floppy drive?
Thanks very much.
Vic
