|
|
Big surprise for all who dont know yet :
A micro SD card is on the main board inside the Wavedrum
most Data are on the card...
backup Data + more is possible ...
basic info here (freestok) ...
http://www.korgforums.com/forum/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=63557&sid=d9dfceee7952f7241075de884c140bdf
A special cable can bring the SD card to outside , for easy access.
I dont want to use freestoks thread for discussing order details
GROUP ORDER
I couldnt find an adress for single order for this special cable
(if somebody has a single order adress , please tell me )
now I am going to order 20 (or 40) of these extension cables
+"middle bottom" protected solution
+ solid plastic encased reader , Glue on / Velcro outside
+ NORMAL SD Card size reader
(+no drilling )
+25 cm cable length
-leading the cable outside needs probably to scratch away 2-3 mm of plastic
-no experience about mechanical stability , yet
-has never been mounted before
(a little bit of improvisation is maybe necessary to mount it )

latest news :
this item has been discontinued
we have been too ZZZZZZ
I am already in contact with alibaba ,looking for a solid alternative
--->48 cm cable seems still to be available
----->25 cm cable is available again
This thread (until now) opens an order list list FOR EUROPE
I suggest a minimum order of 2 cables
there is no warranty for an intact cable
(maybe we keep 2 extra as a safety insurance)
Price in Europe is higer than in China
needs repacking , confirm bank transfer , and ,and ,and
so this is no business ,
but I do everybody (incl.myself) a favour ...(what an idiot )
maybe its useful to open your WD and remove the the 2 screws at 11 and 13 o clock
and the plastic shield , so you can have a first impression about mounting and leading out the cable.
(no discussion about construction with me , before you opened your WD ,please.)
keep it easy for me , ....
if you want to be on my EUROPEAN LIST
confirm with email
Counter for Europe
number of orders : waterdrum 4
razzaq 2 ok
edo 2 ok (or more ,cool OK))
michael 2 OK
kenny 2 OK
freestok 1 OK
panason 1 OK
bogtrumpet 1 OK
????? means : needs to be confirmed , please
this private (non commercial) action goes over email ,
and bank account transfer , when the cables are in EU ,
so I need your confirmation per email
waterdrum[at]gmx[dot]de
if there are things to be spoken about cable details , ordering details ,
constructive thoughts , whatever ,
please post here and keep the info together.
when somebody wants to make a group order from US/ elsewhere ,
you are of course welcome to this thread with your group order
( we only should not mix up the lists )
so I hope we find enough people soon.....
so long.
edited to update order list

The eBay cable you linked should be here soon. I will let you know how it goes. I suspect that same Company would be willing to make some to spec but the 20 piece lot isn't than bad. Good luck with an order I only had 1 other in the state and 1 from overseas actually confirm they wanted one. I hope it goes better for you. |

the encased reader looks more stabil to me ,
but every reader should do . |

Looks OK, I'm in!
We just need to work out the best way to fix the male end to the WD card slot, I haven't opened my WD yet, I'm waiting for a replacement head so I can do that at the same time.
The WD slot has a little cover that clips onto the SD card, and that may or may not work, so I'm thinking of using a little bit of silicone gel?
We really don't want't the connection to come loose while the WD is on, it may corrupt the data on the card. |

I will wait until next week for another paypal try.
seems the manufacturer of the cables is not able
to give me a paypal account ,
where paypal makes a money transfer...(???)
I tried 5 times , sent 8 emails , 2 telefone calls with paypal.
I will try with a money transfer to a Singaporean bank.
2 dollars per cable extra.

Hi,
I'm also in the U.S., and I would be interested in getting two of the SD cables.
Thanks,

Hi everyone,
Selling two cables like the one on the picture below - brand new, still sealed.
Cable length : 6,2 cm without connectors - 9,3 cm including connectors.
Price for one cable : 13 euros.
Shipping charges will vary depending on where you are (I'm located in France). I guess it won't be very expensive, since the cable weighs nearly nothing.
PM me if you're interested !

seems like my favourite micro sd extension cables with a "solid" normal size SD card reader have arrived in England ....
Worldwide shipping , no minimum order like 1000 or 20 cables
the cable length is 20" (10" would be enough for me),
but it can get folded easily (or even shortened by DIY action)
http://www.ebay.at/itm/SD-to-MicroSD-Card-Extension-Cable-/111172530933?pt=UK_Photography_MemoryCardReaders_RL&hash=item19e26632f5
payment with paypal is possible
(this was and is the problem with the Chinese manufacturer)
this cable makes exchanging Usersounds very easy
and I still hope , this will be happening in this forum (where else?) _________________ ---------- Wavedrum ----------
