You absolutely can plug the MCDISK into your MPC60! SCSI is SCSI and it doesn't matter which type of connector is on which device - they are all fully compatible. You would just need a cable with a DB-25 connector on one end and a SCSI-2 connector on the other end, which we have.

ok!
i don't know at all scsi....
so I plug MC disk on my mpc60, i put my pgm and snd on card, i buy a usb card reader, i put my mpc60 snd and pgm on computer, I convert them with MPCPGMmaker to 2000xl format, and I put them on the XL?
the solution of 7 1 4 member is too long, that's it?
with your solution it will be faster?

yeah do your thing.

yes, great , thank you for your help!

Well, you've got the basics of it. It's really not as hard as it sounds - once you do it a couple of times, it will be a breeze.

make your life easier and dead the xl....

yes i'd like to, but my 60 is so fragile, I prefer have a Xl on stage, just to play sounds, that's all...NO SAMPLE and NO SEQUENCING with XL

Does no one have first hand experience on this?

I have both machines and the xl has no problem reading 60 floppy's! Just read the xl manual if you don't believe me

waw!
i must try!
i haven't got a mpc2000xl yet...
thanks!

Yeah they work fine I used to do it.

cool!
i'm excited to test it!
so no need to convert , just floppy reader to floppy reader!

i have a pc w/ flash drive and flash drives for both the 60 and 2kxl. anyone know if it is possible to get the pc to see the 60 formatted card? that way i could just drag the files in and swap the cards. i would also really like to be able to at least load my 60's midi files but im really lost as to how to do it because the 60 format architecture is strange.

Hi,
no idea on this problem,
sorry!
