SCSI backup, which made easy

Direct to PC transfer for Akai, Roland and Korg recorder and sampler

US-based software developer ASC (advanced storage concepts) have only version 3 of its VirDIS program veröffentlicht.Ein SCSI device emulator, VirDIS (short for virtual disk image server) allows to be users of Roland VS series, multiple trackers, AKAI S5000 and S6000 samplers, Korg D8s and D16s, and Yamaha A3000 recorder recorded audio files to a PC without proprietary (and increasingly difficult to find) SCSI CD and hard drives.

The company's founder, Bill Casey has an impressive and varied list of achievements: a furnished US Army veteran Casey had a hand in developing the original SCSI standard, wrote the software for Boeing AWACS (airborne warning and control system) program, and even the Honeywell ground controllers supports in communicating with the international space station!

VirDIS, latest and perhaps, more down-to-Earth project is its a software and hardware package that includes the VirDIS program and a PCI or PCIe SCSI adapter, audio files, of the referred to devices on your PC in WAV or disk image (ISO and BIN / CUE) formats transmitted can. in addition ASC say that, with VirDIS, you record directly to your computer can effectively eliminate the recorder space restrictions.

Development is ongoing, with upcoming support for DVD drive emulation, OS X and Windows Vista (the VirDIS PC only and works on all versions of Windows NT 4.0 to XP) appears in the Pipeline.Eine 'stand-alone' version is also on is edited and ASC say this need a PC card no longer
