- Hi.
-
- I'm not really sure what DA paging is (any techie please help!) but it
- THINK it's the ability of
- transferring Digital Audio using the CD-Rom-To-SCSI bus.
-
- The freeware program I have says this:
-
- What drives support DA?
- - -----------------------
-
- I have heard from many different people who say such-and-such drive
- will read DA frames. The following is a list of which drives which
- I understand have the ability to read DA frames: (thanks to
- bwilliam@iat.holonet.net for starting this list)
-
- Apple 300, 300i, 300e (Sony CDU-8003, CDU-8003A)
- Apple CD300+
- Chinon CDS-535
- NEC CDR 200, 300, 400, 500, 600, 900 series
- NEC CDR 84-1/74-1 (with special firmware) (yet to be verified)
- Panasonic CR-562B/563B
- Plextor (formerly TEXEL) DM-3028, DM-5028
- Sony CDU-561, CDU-31A, CDU-33A, CDU-55S
- Toshiba XM3301 (Silicon Graphics)
- Toshiba XM3401, XM4101, XM3501
- Teac 4x
- Hitachi
- Matshita (Panasonic) 503
-
- You may want to run CDROMINF.EXE and have a look at the output. If
- there no mention of being able to read RAW frames, and/or the
- RAW READ SIZE is not 2352, there is no chance that CDDA will work
- using the MSCDEX interface. Also, if it reports that your drive
- supports reading RAW, that DOES NOT mean that CDDA will work. It
- all depends upon the person who wrote the driver for your drive. If
- he/she passes DA frames to MSCDEX, you're laughing. Otherwise,
- you're out of luck.
-
- There are rumors that the Mitsumi LU055 drive will work using the
- MSCDEX interface, but I have yet to hear specifically what version
- drive, and what version driver works.
-
- If you know or think you know of other drives, let me know and I will
- do some investigating.
- - --------------
- - -------------------------------------------------
- The Disc-to-Disk demo simply says tha you'll need a SCSI CD-rom
- with DA.
- Next week I'll be able to FTP (for now I'm on e-mail only).
- I'll be very happy to upload it somewhere. Just tell me where!

- Subject: Patches
-
- Hi to everybody.
-
- I'm looking for a set of tom patches.
- They should sound like the toms used by Queen.
- Does anyone knows if and where I can find them?
- I've already checked the Guspro. Toms are good
- but don't sound as I would.
- I'm also looking for a very cool overdriven guitar.
- If someone needs a distorted guitar I use a 500K
- patch Fender Stratocaster. I also have a finger and a slap
- bass both very good and half the size of the standard GUS
- samples.
-
- Ciao!
