MOTU Unisyn 2.1.0 installer CD image available (for OSX only)

[RossDarker]

Try Locking the TOAST file before opening it, after a fresh download, or mount it with Virtual CD/DVD ROM Utility if you cannot lock it.

I personally used the CD/DVD ROM utility, and:

I could extract the sit file with OSX Tiger. Now It loads on OS9, but dont locate the CD (image was mounted on Desktop with toast). I am near!

Thanks for helpings!

It seems that It doesnt like OMS 

[RossDarker]

Maybe you can create two different Extension Manager sets, and pick which one you want when you start up with space bar held down (like one set with OMS enabled and the other diabled)

Great idea, but It does not fit well for my studio setup concept, surely I will use another computer for synth editors and BCR2000 programming for live synths tweaking 

Now I am interested about trying unisyn under macosx.
Do 2.1 version makes any big difference?



Many thanks for helpings!

unisyn and performer will only like OMS when the freemidi OMS driver is installed.

and while we are on it, you make snapshots on mac os via command-3 and command-4

[Irisman]

Thanks for hints 👍

Then I was wrong thinking that OMS and freemidi were not compatible... Need to test that   

[RossDarker]

Pretty sure it's cmd+SHIFT+3 / 4

Also for individual windows:
Cmd+Shift+Caps Lock+4, then click the Window you want to capture

All files are saved as PICTs in the startup disk root.

Easiest way to convert these to JPGs (or other format) is to launch Picture Viewer, from the QuickTime Control Strip Module, then "tear" off the app switcher and drag and drop the screensnap onto Picture Viewer in the torn off switcher, then I think you do File > Convert.

obviously unisyn is compatible with OMS + Freemidi;
you seem to be consistantly having some strange errors Irisman

can someone pm me with a url to download this unisyn 2.1 cd installer?

in danger of beeing wrong..  but i think it is pretty simple; installl both, have that "freemidi" OMS driver in the OMS folder, then it is operates pretty much straight forward. but i regulary mix it up with midishare, i think that was the one where i once used it with sucess.

Pretty sure it's cmd+SHIFT+3 / 4

right, thanks for correction (poor irisman probably tried command-3 for 100 times now)

also strongly recommended by the 110 departement: the "screenshot to desktop" sytem extension. (guess what it does)

[RossDarker]

I got it in my Extensions folder, shows up on startup but the screenshots save to my HD still (rather than on desktop). It sounds great though.

[Irisman]

Thankyou again for help!

Now I have It working editing Yamaha V50

 
 
Sorry for using mobile pics instead screenshot 😎

As MacTron says:. Keep It simple!

Finally some crashes makes me give up with Unisyn, the MidiQuest does the job better un my actual studio setup.

PCM 80/81 users just have bad luck. there are editors for sounddiver for 70 and 90 but not for the 80.

which midi interface are you having crashes with ??
is it a motu interface? or no?

I am using MOTU PCI 424, with 3 2408 attached, and 2 opcode Studio 4 plus 2 emagic (unitor 8 & amt

[macStuff]

sounds like an excellent setup! i also have a pci-424 but i only have one 2408mk2 motu unit so far..
and my studio 4 i bought doesnt want to work... perhaps something electrically wrong with it
but i do have a 128x and also an MTP AV

the studio4 works in tandem with the unitor 8 + amt?
im assuming the unitor 8 + amt are linked.. and the studio4 is not?
u can only link two of them at once when using an opcode/mtp
but with emagic amt/unitor8 u can link many more isnt that true?

I´ll try to explain:

the studio4 works in tandem with the unitor 8 + amt?  -->  Yes, the 4 racks (2 emagics + 2 studio4) works together, as long as the Opcode OMS Studio Setup recognizes the emagics if the driver for them are present in the system, so that gives a total 32 independent MIDI lines, 16 channels each of them, a total bunch of MIDI channels.


im assuming the unitor 8 + amt are linked.. and the studio4 is not?  -->  As said, you control 4 racks within OMS   


u can only link two of them at once when using an opcode/mtp  but with emagic amt/unitor8 u can link many more isnt that true?   --> With a single SERIAL port (that is my actual setup, with the JAMPORT mod installed), you can use only 2 Opcode Studio 4.  I "only" have 2 USB emagic, but manual says that you can link up to 8 racks, connected to a single USB port at the MAC.

Hi Guys,

I know this is a slight necro-bump and possibly off topic (great start ) but does anyone know where the installer for 2.1 may be found? I've tried PM'ing MickeyRatt but no luck...

Thanks!
