Alessis

If you're looking you'll know what this is. Saved a few lives back in the day. Rack-mountable (1 space) Alesis DataDisk uses a 3.5" Floppy disc system (DBL-sided/DBL-density) with 800KB memory capability per disc. Although the total size of data can't exceed disc size, it is capable of up to 53 separate data files. With direct read and write to disc without a large RAM buffer, it is very speedy and works in real time. It's applications include any concievable MIDI file use plus it can be used for SYS(tem)EX(clusive) files for synth, drum machines and other applications. It has a large, backlit LCD display and although is very powerful, it is quite easy to use with front button functions such as scroll, name, send, receive, delete, MIDI, backup, and format. Back panel has MIDI in & out jacks and AC input. The heavy-duty 4 pin Alesis AC adaptor is included
