cr1901 changed the topic of ##yamahasynths to: Channel dedicated to questions and discussion of Yamaha FM Synthesizer internals and corresponding REing. Discussion of synthesis methods similar to the Yamaha line of chips, Sound Blasters + clones, PCM chips like RF5C68, and CD theory of operation are also on-topic.

<Sarayan> Foone, can I do a request?
<Foone> yeh
<Sarayan> A reasonably long (maybe 1mn or so), uncompressed audio recording of a rotating floppy drive (let me know the type and rpm) that is not seeking, to analyse and see if I could generate it algorithmically
<Foone> sure. my roommate has a quality microphone arriving today or tomorrow, I'll borrow it for that
<Sarayan> Excellent thanks
<Sarayan> No urgency, of course, but it's hard to find quality recordings
<Sarayan> And well, you're supposed to have a floppy drive or two :-)
<Foone> who told you
<Sarayan> Hints here and there
<Sarayan> nothing obvious
<andlabs> got an ebay purchase today and it came in an egghead computers box; I guess that's one thing I missed out on that I now have
<andlabs> Sarayan: first the floppy emu and then the gotek, and now whatever you're doing
<andlabs> emulating floppy disk sounds seems to be A Thing???
<andlabs> *gotek with flashfloppy

<Sarayan> andlabs: somebody else added floppy sounds a while ago, and let's say I'm not convinced much by the result
<Sarayan> +to mame
<andlabs> heh
<andlabs> which prjoect is this again?
<cr1901> Foone: Apropos of absolutely nothing, how's SCSI The Bitey Kitty doing if you're keeping tabs?
<SEGFAULTLauren[m> Does anyone know if there is any software that can enumulate a SCSI HDD with a PC
<andlabs> in what sense
<SEGFAULTLauren[m> I have a piece of a gear, which has a SCSI bus on the back. I want to be able to save data from it, but its OS is expecting a SCSI disk, so I would like to fake one using a PC cos SCSI disks are expensive
<SEGFAULTLauren[m> (and yes I am aware SCSI2SD exists, I am searching for alternatives)
<andlabs> uhhhh
<andlabs> good question
<andlabs> it IS possible -- old macs have SCSI-based target disk mode
<SEGFAULTLauren[m> (incidentally the peice of gear is an AKAI sampler, which does not have a Yamaha synth chip in it so sorry for the off topic)
<cr1901> SEGFAULTLauren[m: I have NEVER enforced on-topic lmao, no worries
<andlabs> https://scsiexplorer.com/vsde.php and there seems to be some commercial software?
<NiGHTS> Virtual Storage Device Emulator overview
<cr1901> One of my favorite communities (Near's forum, RIP) had a running theme where it was guaranteed the topic of each thread would derail at least once
<cr1901> Anyways, I think basic SCSI is simple/slow you can byte-bang a driver for it
<NiGHTS> RaSCSI – Raspberry Pi based SCSI device emulator | RetroRGB
<cr1901> slow enough*
<andlabs> I don't think you can make just a passive cable to do it
<cr1901> Idk the details, but someone created their own 65xx SBC with a SCSI disk driver
<cr1901> If they did that, I assume that creating SCSI interface hardware is well within the realm of a hobbyist
<andlabs> akai might make things a bit more complicated, maybe
<andlabs> if their floppy disk weirdness is anything to go by
<cr1901> There's a whole website dedicated to it ._. http://akaiscsifaq.digidude.net
<andlabs> yeah akai samplers are a not insignifcant userbase of both goteks and scsi2sds
<cr1901> Only akai hardware I have is a lightly used MPK mini, which is USB, so... :(
<andlabs> same
<andlabs> it was nice but I really wanted something with real MIDI ports
<andlabs> maybe someone should make a USB-based keyboard that supports MIDI-USB and acts as a powered hub
<andlabs> but lol
<andlabs> I wonder if a PCI SCSI card can also do it
<andlabs> still need to get one, now that I have two 50-pin internal drives to dump
<andlabs> (one from a mac lc II and one from an amiga 2000)
<SEGFAULTLauren[m> <andlabs "I wonder if a PCI SCSI card can "> thats what I am hoping for
