What a haul!

In this forum you can write about anything that does not fit in other forums.
This includes generic Oric talkings and things that are totaly unrelated but want to share with people here :)

I've sent an email to Symoon regarding sending them via a FTP server (both files are approx 28meg, 44100Hz 16bit) but if anyone else wants a copy then let me know! It would need a FTP server though - I tried sending large files via email once and it simply rejected them.

PS don't ask me to convert them to 8bit, the software I used only does 16bit (I think) :D
Could I have a copy please ?

Hi waskol, I would gladly send you a copy but my ISP will not let me send files as large as 28meg via email. Could you set up a FTP server for me to transfer them over? If not I could look at breaking the files down into smaller RAR files and sending them individually. Let me know either way.

lol for the 21 parts. I am so sorry for your ISP limitation.

Anyway, it seems that everything you sent are there.
I will have a look to all of that this week-end.
Have a nice day !

Hi there,

David did you get my email ?
I have a FTP server that's been running for 24 hours now ;-)
I'll have to shut it down Saturday at 1:00PM, could you send the files there ?
If not I'll ask Waskol ;-)

Hi Symoon, no I haven't received your email for some strange reason. Could you send it again for me?

EDIT: Sorry Symoon, I've now got the email. My useless ISP had automatically put it into the SPAM folder! I'll send the files shortly.

Thanks David, got the files !

I began the transfer but have a few conversion errors. Seems your tape player [EDIT: or the original recording !] runs faster than standard.
I will try and load it on real Oric to compare the results.

Or maybe Waskol will manage to make the TAP file before, which will save me time :wink:

I have created a new topic about Tyrann in the "games" section.

Back to ebay, did anyone here place a bid?

I think that means yes and he won the auction.
<edit>
Hey, didn't someone here say they couldn't justify traveling 200 miles to pick it up?

LOL I did say that, but a couple of my friends are down that way on friday and said they would collect them for me if I won the auction (for a small fee :) ). Needless to say I didn't need asking twice :wink:
