Keeping me busy this week!

Opcode Max 2.5.1 for OS 6

Arboretum Systems CD release #4: Ionizer, Harmony, Hyperprism, RayGun, Xx

Arboretum Systems CD release #4.8: Ionizer, Harmony, Hyperprism, RayGun, Realizer

both of these disks come with old demos of Cubase, Deck, Metro, Peak, SVP, etc

MOTU Performer 5.02

And also a road case from a recording studio with hundreds of floppies in it:

102 Digidesign disks of various kinds - SampleCell, Sound Designer versions, ProTools 3 versions, DAE and TDM utilities, etc

Stuff to use with Digidesign from Steinberg, Jupiter, Synchro Arts, Waves, and Hyperprism 1.1-1.5

Stack of Opcode disks - many versions of OMS, Studio 5 software, Galaxy 1.2, Galaxy Plus 2.01, Studio Vision 1.5.1, SVP 2.0.4, SVP 2.0.8, SVP 2.0.9f1, and SVP 3.1

Stack of Emagic disks - SoundDiver 1.5, SoundDiver 2.01, Logic 1.74, Logic Audio 2.0, 2.1, 2.5, 3.5, ZIP, and Hearmaster

MOTU drivers for MTP and MTP II, Performer 4.02, 4.1 update

Alchemy audio editor 2.5.1 and 3.0

Also some Roland and Korg drivers, studio administration tools, GlobalFAX, Norton 3.2, Word 6.01, Excel 5, Works 3, Works 4, Now Utilities 4 and 5, SoftWindows 2, Avery MacLabel, FWB tools, Apple disk tools, Quicktime 1, Multiscan drivers, Powerbook 500 disks, Quadra AV disks, various music projects on floppy, and samples for Kurzweil k2000, EMU SP1200, and Akai MPC3000.

I am going to be gradually sorting this stuff out for a long, long time. Definitely gets me wanting to put a NuBus TDM system together, but it will need to wait.

Only stuff I have tried here so far: The Arboretum 4.8 CD, which I am extremely psyched about. And Max 2.5.1, which works! Max on my SE is too cool. Two "help" files could not be read off the disk, but the rest of the install went fine, and I used one of three authorizations on the disk. Not as many externals out there for 2.x, but thev included patches are very different than I recall seeing. Also it includes DSP objects for audio on the 56001 DSP of an Audiomedia 1 card, as well as other obscure things like Reson8 and Studer Dyaxis. This is my favorite toy of the bunch. Must be going!

Holy WOW!!!! I'll pm you something to help take care of those auth disks the "proper" way for safekeeping.... I learned my lesson a few years back when I totally wasted out a complete set of Protools 3.1 and 3.2 authorizers trying to upgrade the TDM versions.

If you can wait at all before authorizing anything more please do. It will be worth getting good backups of these special floppies for posterity.

I would LOVE LOVE to get ahold of some of that really old software you have there. Especially the Audiomedia I stuff, and the SampleCell stuff well most all of it. I have some of what you have plus tons other of the vintage av software that is getting next to impossible to locate.

VERY good conquest there!
