I've got two Sample Cell I cards. I've been looking for a copy of the original editor from 1991. A guy from Germany told me that his Sample Cell card had a rectangular piggyback, whereas mine have square. He was able to use his card in a Quadra. I've also read that the original Sample Cell cards...

@David Cook If you could upload all of the Pro Tools/Avid/Sound Designer stuff, that would be awesome! What is the AudioStation software for? What version of Sound Designer and Pro Tools are on your Q950? Also, is the Avid Drive Utility for the SysAxe card? That would be very useful to have...

@mrkirkby If you can find a 4.0.1 disc, let me know. I have the auth disks for that version. There was a copy on Ebay last summer, but I didn't purchase it because I didn't think that I had the disks. There is a copy labelled "ProTools 4.0 cd" on the Macintosh Repository, but I'm pretty sure...

That is exactly what I needed to know. Thank you, @eharmon

@cheesestraws @nyef Thank you both for the suggestions. The person I got the drive from said that they used the Monte method to back up drives. I've read that it involves using FWB toolkit to partition the drive, put the plugins in said partition, and make a bit-copy of it. I'm still not sure if...

I have a Nubus hard drive with rare authorizers installed on it. Is there any reason why I shouldn't use a SCSI card in a newer machine to clone the drive and then put it back into a PowerMac 7100? Would it be better to clone the drive in the 7100, with the recipient drive being the same model...

Cool! How were they different?

I was hoping that the II model would at least sound similar, but apparently not. It seems to be easier to find boxed sets of the II. :) Cool. Was wondering why the original models had two knobs on them. :) Thanks for the info. I guess I'll go for the M6082 set. I had a feeling that the II...

Has anyone used both the M6082 and M2497 Apple Design speaker sets? Which set has better sound quality? Is there much of a difference between the two?

@danpoarch Where can I find Nybblemaster 1.7 and Power FakeMaster 1.75? After googling the former, I got results for a Commodore64 program. How do I use it with Mac software? I have copies of Pro Tools III, MasterList 1.0, Sound Designer 2.4 and DINR that I want to make images of. Your help...

Very cool!

Cool! I want to get a Mackie HUI eventually. It's good to know that compatibility is based on software. :)

One the other things that I would like to find out - if the Mackie HUI interface is compatible with Nubus. It was launched concurrently with the release of the 888/24 and is compatible with Pro Tools 4.1. The article mentions PCI, but nothing of Nubus. I wonder if there were any other control...

I PM'd you. :)

I've gotten conflicting information about 888 interfaces. Various users have said that the 888/24 isn't compatible with Nubus; however, a few have said that it is. I haven't gotten an 888 yet because I don't have clarity on this issue. Digidesign 888/24 compatibility was introduced with Pro...

I recently acquired two SampleCell 1 cards. Apparently, the first version of the piggyback from 1991 is not compatible with Quadra machines. This makes me wonder if the original SampleCell 1 piggyback is compatible with the PowerMac 7100/8100 models. Hopefully, it's just a Quadra-specific issue...

One article stated that 80 mhz Power Macs were actually preferred to the 100s because of the slightly faster 40 mhz bus speed. Were you able to use any plugins on your system? I've read that early Pro-Tools software was often better optimized for the hardware than current systems. I saw an...

A lot of people say that the Audiomedia II has a really unique sound, even compared to the later Pro-Tools stuff. There's an interface called the Pro IO that has 18-bit Apogee converters, made for the Sound Accelerator card. I think it is compatible with Audiomedia II. Apparently, it is one of...

I'm completely greenhorn with sampling and am going by second-hand information. All of the sample disks that I have were sampled by the previous owner. I've never actually sampled anything myself. I'm just having to read information on forums until I collect all of the parts to actually be able...

I noticed that the disk i/o card that came with mine has a breakout cable attached to an internal connector. The 50/50 SCSI drive cable. It took me awhile to find the official name for the cable in Digidesign's support archives. Will any 50-pin SCSI hard drive work? Is there any kind of...
