VST (free) to load EPROMS?

[MrFigg]

Is there any VST/ RE (preferably free) which can load EPROMS?
I seem to remember trying some Quadelectra thing but found it too fiddly. .

Edit: Found this...Vprom by AlyJamesLab. Anybody used it?

By the way...if anyone is interested there's over 700 EPROMS for synths and drum machines here:

This looks interesting. A lot of these seem to be firmware I think? For instance a lot of these are synths and samplers. I don't know if there is any actual drums sounds in most of these, which I guess is what you're looking for?

You’re totally correct. I wrote and asked Aly James and here’s what he explained for me regarding this EPROMs.

“ What you got here are mostly OS Dumps that means operating systems and bios dumps from various machine, these are not sounds but firmware, program code
VProm can load .bin files but they need to contain compatible sound data, aka companded format( a form of compression used in the past) machines like Linn’s, Oberheim’s etc used that format.
You could try to load those firmware into VProm but you would end up with a bunch of white noise as these are just data.”

Thought I was sitting on a goldmine but apparently not.

A shame but yes, this list is like a list of everything ever made. If you find any good resources for BIN files please post it. I have the Quadelectra Jackbox so I'd be interested in this too.

I was thinking of getting that Quadelectra Linn then I thought I’ve got so many samples it just wasn’t worth it. Then I saw VProm and the temptation of being able to use that connection of EPROMs was pretty strong. Now I’m ambivalent again

These though?

There’s also a program called Promenade which converts .wav files to EPROM format.

All I bought VProm yesterday and I am so happy. No regrets, no remorse.
Anyway...here’s a link to some EPROMs which load directly into VProm 2.
