OK, I dont have an ASR but have u terminated the zip drive? And also, what version OS r u running? U may have an older one that dont support zips so it might b worth taking a mission over 2 the website.

- I just bought an Iomega zip 100 drive for my asr-x pro and what do you know,it won't work.I've been trying to save some sounds to it but when it scans for scsi id it will scan all the way through and then ask me if I want to scan scsi id again.I've set the scsi id to 5 and it didn't work ,so I tried 6 still didn't work.Someone please help me.

I have scsi termination selected on the asr-x. I went to the emu website and downloaded the new os for the asr.It's supposed to automatically identify the new flash os on start up but it doesn't.So I tried loading files from disk.It says no readable files. Oh ,and upon reading the manual over again I noticed that the scsi id you choose for the asr has to be anything but the number 5 and 6.

R-tek is on the money. The older 'black' ASR-X must be at os 2.62 for reliable SCSI transfers. v2.67 is the latest (and last) OS for the 'black box'. Double check your termination settings are correct AND you may want to open up the X and double check the SCSI card itself is seated correctly, i.e., tight fit. The latter is not unheard of. All else fails, try a different SCSI cable.

I just found on an asr site that the asr-x pro has to be upgraded to 3.4 before it will transfer correctly.I will attempt to get an answer from ensoniq why the 3.4 OS I downloaded won't read from the disk.I also discovered that I was plugging the cable into the printer thru port on the zip drive. Now I need a fifty pin scsi cable with an end to fit the zip port. I went to my local computer store and they don't carry them.Anyone know where I can order one off the net?Thanks
