Re: Yamaha Su700

hi,

 

i think i have the id's set to 5 and 6. just like it says in the manual. the thing

that you have to save the whole volume surely sux. i have 68megs of ram in

my yamaha. the volume i use most of the time is about 50 megs big and it

takes almost 20 mins to save!!!! 5-10 to load it. what also bugs me is that

you have to stop a song in order to change to another one, which kind of kills

1 hour mixes if you don't have other devices. the lag with the fx change could

also be absent, but i maneged to live with it somehow. what i wonder is, why

the hell did they build in a floppy drive instead of a zip in the first place?

 

greetz,

Yes,
I've got the same problem with the zip drive, and it could be dued to SCSI
1-SCSI 2 transmission (Su700 is SCSI 2 and the zip is SCSI 1).
But the really bad feature I found on this unit is the need to save or load
all the songs (the whole memory)  and not a song at a time. It's a nightmare
for playing live.
I would like to have suggestions...
