It is quite simple, and should work if the EmaxII writes this info to the eproms, but it may write it to one of the PALs. The emaxII uses 2-27C64 eproms, I...

I thought these configurations parameters (memory size, calibration settings, ...) are written to the 9306 eeprom instead of the two normal eproms. So I guess...

The 9306 EEPROM also has a bit (or bits) that determine whether the Emax II has stereo or mono sampling capability. So you need to match that as well as the...

You need the remove 9306 EEPROM, its a small 8 pin chip soldered to the main board and designated IC24. You will need to desolder this chip to read in your...
