Converting an ASR 10 disk?

Post by majorwest »

I have a sample disk for the Ensoniq ASR 10. I need help converting it and wondering if someone has done this or if it is possible.
Thanks :shock:

I use Ensoniq ASR10 also, but am just getting into daw. Theres the Ensoniq disk utility, but I think thats for converting pc disks to Ensoniq format. Will check around, let you know if I can come up w/anything.

Theres also Teesoniq, Tee is the only Ensoniq repair facility left in the country. He's very knowledgeable about everything Ensoniq...

Is it a hard disk, or are the samples on a floppy? An Ultra Emulator (hardware sampler) can read Ensoniq samples which can then be saved as E-mu format and loaded into Mach V. This is how I converted my Emax 2 library.

I've had success converting from a floppy via an E6400 Ultra, but I've never tried it with a CD. I'd have to go back and look at the EOS updates and see if they support ASR conversion via SCSI.
