You will need your own USB drive, I will provide download link including config file, blank images and OS updates.Just put that in the root of your FAT32 formatted USB drive and youвЂ™re ready to go. Hint: Use this websiteвЂ™s search feature to find disk libraries for most of these machines, or browse the SAMPLE LIBRARY.This is Gotek floppy emulator flashed with FlashFloppy also with OLED display installed ready to use with Akai MPC2000 and MPC2000XL. Note: For testing purposes, start with one file named вЂDSKA0000.HFEвЂ™ (or DSKA0000.IMG) which is placed in the root folder of the USB drive (along with FF.CFG). OLED supports folder structure and descriptive file names, standard Gotek display units do not. Lastly, add all the disk files (typically HFE, but raw format is generally supported) you want.

The configuration file must be named вЂFF.CFGвЂ™ and be placed in the root folder of a FAT32 formatted USB drive to be used with the Gotek. Next, add the proper CFG file corresponding to the synth/sampler/sequencer. FlashFloppy is generally successful at reporting when the ribbon cable is improperly reversed, so do pay atttention. This is usually red stripe toward the floppy power connector, but not always. Make sure the floppy ribbon cable is in the proper orientation when connecting it to your audio gear. CONFIGURATION & PREPARATIONДЄfter installing FlashFloppy, make sure the Gotek jumper is set to S0.

Warning: Gotek hardware which was released in Spring 2021 or after have Artery chips, so refer to the video directly below.

It is still possible to flash new Goteks with FlashFloppy, but this video only applies to old Gotek hardware with STM32 chips.Дownload the Gotek FlashFloppy EZ Installer Bundle v0.50 (for Windows and macOS), read the instructions, and follow along with this video. Warning: As of Spring 2021, this video and flashing method have been rendered obsolete due to an unavoidable manufacturing change. вЂ“ Although almost any USB drive will work with the Gotek, SanDisk Fit is the perfect physical size and capacity for floppy drive emulators. вЂ“ Optional, but highly recommended: Buy a 128Г—32 OLED module to replace the 7-segment display in the Gotek.

вЂ“ Get a USB-A to USB-A cable to allow installing the FlashFloppy firmware. вЂ“ Buy a cheap Gotek which preferably matches the color scheme of your synth/sampler/sequencer. ItвЂ™s easy to do it yourself! Be confident! PURCHASE LIST Aside from Lotharek HxC, most other floppy emulator units on eBay are simply inexpensive Gotek units flashed with a freely available operating system firmware known as FlashFloppy and configured with sound disks, and other content freely available here and elsewhere on the Internet. There is little reason to buy overpriced вЂњpre-configuredвЂќ floppy emulators for most studio gear. Note: This page is a work-in-progress which will be fleshed out with more machines as time permits.
