I say scratch the ancient stuff and throw you a card reader in that joint.

In short, you can transfer what's on cd to cf card...easy, a no brainer.

you cant write or save on cd's in your scsi cd rom...



honesty it is just for loading stuff... you would be better off using your computer to save the individual sounds you need onto the thing you use to save your sounds.

If you find somebody to embed the writing features into the s/w, let us know.

That's why I suggested going with the card reader...you can do both read & write and you have more space to save your data.
