I couldnt get ems qart to work natively, unless there are drivers or something necessary that werent on the github walkthrough.
Checking out the android tool- I'll need to order a usb dongle to connect to my phone, but Im assuming it doesnt require anything else special?

Try to see if ems-qart works.]]>https://chipmusic.org/nitro2k012022-06-21T23:16:29Zhttps://chipmusic.org/forums/post/265767/#p265767<![CDATA[Re: Current State of EMS Carts?]]>I do not have much experience with the EMS carts, but what if you try something like VMware to setup a virtual computer with an older operating system?]]>https://chipmusic.org/HeavyW8bit2022-06-21T16:48:13Zhttps://chipmusic.org/forums/post/265766/#p265766<![CDATA[Current State of EMS Carts?]]>Hey team! I'm returning to the hobby/hustle after years away, and need to backup my old songs from my EMS carts, and ideally I'd like to restore some setlists to them once I've replaced the batteries. No matter what I try, I can't get the EMS software to recognize that I've got a cart plugged in. I'm, of course, on a newer operating system, and some disparaging googling has shown me brief mentions of drivers no longer being compatible... is that where we're currently at? Could I be doing something else wrong? My old process consisted of the flashing of the cart, and using LSDJ manager to split the songs out. Is anyone currently using any method to flash EMS carts? If I have to track down a piece of junk old computer with an old OS, I suppose I will, but I'd love to not have to!]]>https://chipmusic.org/Eric+and+a+Bear2022-06-20T21:09:10Zhttps://chipmusic.org/forums/post/265765/#p265765
