Unisyn
« on: July 08, 2014, 07:37:32 PM »
2.1 is the OSX-only version. 2.0.2 is the last version for OS9. I have a CDROM image but I can't seem to mount it or get it to burn properly. Hmm...

This is hard to find  :-X

Someone uploaded an img file of the CDROM to the FTP but it doesn't seem to be working.

ok right. duh, so i can use this to program my juno synths? via SysEX midi? :o
better move this to the top of the list  -afro-
that would be alot better then having to boot into mac os x to use "alpha junocontrol"

an osx only app that i used to use for that purpose (im not paying 200-300$ for a pg-300)

so it basically replaces any synth-editors like this hardware unit
with this: hardware ^^ vs software vv


compare with sound diver:

I found a version 1.5 but I seem to get an error when launching it after patching. There was also a CDROM of version 2.01 on the FTP but it says that the filesystem is unrecognizable.

I tried mounting and burning on 3 different machines and 4 different operating systems. Whoever uploaded it either had an FTP error or didn't make a good image.

Any of you have a problem with Unisyn crashing? I'm on a clean install of OS9 (no viruses) and it seems to bring my system to a halt. Have to restart sometimes, and sometimes it gives me a Type 1 error.

also, mactron, is it really neccessary to use stuffit on these extreme compression settings?
and to stuff a .toast image?

its taking like 10min to unstuff some of these .toast.sit you are uploading...
to save not much disk space this is a real hassle   :'(

u are making me take these 10min breaks just to unstuff one file... i have to go walk my dog and stop doing what im doing.. i guess my dog is happy tho LOL

im getting an error saying it cant find the cd? does this install require to burn a physical disc?

You have to burn it. No way around it. Deselect the FreeMidi installation to install.
