1. I sincerely apologize for this being my first post; I have been using the 3000 since it hit the shelves and have made numerous albums using only the 3K, i wouldn't use any other machine. I understand that the forum is a give and take and will do my best to contribute all of the knowledge and tips i have learned over the years.
2. I spent many many hours researching the SEARCH function of the site but to no avail on this specific topic, so I thought I would ask, and
3. Bruce Forat and I have been working on this problem for many days now and still to no avail soooo:
Oh wise and learned council, I beg your help.
After going through click of death hell and losing alot, I decided to make the jump to putting an internal CF in my 3000. Yes I read the card reader faq, and though I tried to email the man himself, his response was, shall we say, curt (use the internet). OK, so first I bought a PCD-40. It does NOT WORK with the MPC-3000, any Os. It will not format a flash card and that is as far as I got. I then contacted Adtech directly and confirmed that the SDDS-03 would work (because it does not use LUN configuration to address out the two seperate drives). Forat and I attempted to install it and , though it formatted fine, it would not save sounds...it would write the file name in the partition and 1k of information, but when attempting to load the sound it give a "disk corrupt" error. I figured, at that time, that maybe I was going out on a limb with the adtech and should stick with "approved" devices. So I tracked down a minty intermart PCD-15b. We spent the whole day working on it but we are still having the same problem. 1k saves, but anything bigger will not save/load. If we put data on the flash card it laods fine but within the system, nothing. We tried it with 5 different MPCs and two different OS versions as well as terminated, not terminated, diferent adresses, etc. We tried everything...no dice. BTW, both drives work with the 2000. So now I am at an impass: Mr. Forat says he'll believe its possible when he sees it and I am trying to stay positive but damn; either The PCD-15B DOES NOT WORK WITH THE MPC3000 or there is something we are doing wrong here...
Suggestions, advice, help, consolation. something or anything. Anyone had this problem before or ahve a fix? Is a card reader in the 3000 the lochness monster? Am i using the wrong adapter or card? WTF!
