new user / new Mirage / I'm lost ...

Post by kinkujin »

Hello fellow Ensoniq users ...
I've acquired a new-to-me Ensoniq Mirage DSK8 with a HxC drive emulator in place of the original floppy drive.

I can get the Mirage to boot by the following steps:
1) remove SD card from drive
2) power up Mirage, wait for ND message.
3) put in SD card, wait for drive boot routine.
4) Mirage then plays what I presume is default "this is a floopy ..." patch.

This is where I'm stuck. The drive has 3 red buttons. What do these do? I assume one is select, the other two must be forwards, back?

I'm looking for any information (step-by-step) for how to load the sounds that are on the SD card. The seller that I got it from has been helpful but has moved out of my area. I'm sort of stuck at this moment and would appreciate some guidance. My experimentation has yielded naught. Thanks!
